That's not a valid C++ statement: Do you mean
string str="1230728833";
or
time_t t = 1230728833;
?

Solution 1

Unix/Linux timestamps are the number of seconds since midnight, January 1, 1970 GMT (referred to as the Epoch). They are much easier to programmatically manipulate than date/time strings.

Look at the source code given here : time_t on wiki
