Detailed Documentation

Wraps the FMS time manager functions.

Global Functions

type(time_type) function, public real_to_time(x x, err_msg err_msg)

This is an alternate implementation of the FMS function real_to_time_type that is accurate over a larger range of input values. With 32 bit signed integers, this version should work over the entire valid range (2^31 days or ~5.8835 million years) of time_types, whereas the standard version in the FMS time_manager stops working for conversions of times greater than 2^31 seconds, or ~68.1 years.

Parameters:

x	The input time in real seconds.
err_msg	An optional returned error message.

Returns:

The output time as a time_type
