RealmInstant

A representation of a Realm timestamp. A timestamp represent a single point in time defined as the distance from the UNIX epoch: 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970, expressed in seconds and nanoseconds.

Specifically, this means that all timestamps after the epoch consist of positive numbers and all timestamps before the epoch consists of the negative numbers.

Examples:

• The UNIX epoch is constructed by RealmInstant.from(0, 0).

• Relative times are constructed as follows:

• +1 second is constructed by RealmInstant.from(1, 0)

• +1 nanosecond is constructed by RealmInstant.from(0, 1)

• +1.1 seconds (1100 milliseconds after the epoch) is constructed by RealmInstant.from(1, 100000000)

• -1.1 seconds (1100 milliseconds before the epoch) is constructed by RealmInstant.from(-1, -100000000)
