I'm trying to interoperate with Java timestamps. In the Java world, that's the number of milliseconds since 01/01/1970. This is a web service, and the service was defined using the Java timestamp format. I can change the service signature to use something different, but I was trying to avoid that.
What REALLY sucks about this is that I wrote three services in 30 minutes. It has now taken me two hours to isolaet and try to find a workaround to the arbitrary 15-digit limitation in %DIFF. All the time I talk about how productive RPG is, and this has really bitten me in the butt. The fact that there is no "milliseconds" parameter to %DIFF, and then it fails if you use it for large numbers - that's just a bad deal. If there were no limitation, or if there were a milliseconds parameter, I'd have been done hours ago.
