Using other basic types in a Slice file

What's the best way to handle other basic types in slice files?

I'm thinking particularly about GUID's and DateTime.

Hi Phillip,

Welcome to our forums!

You would typically use a basic type or a struct to represent such types. For example, a GUID could be sent as a string, and a DateTime as struct:

struct DateTime
{
      long value;    // number of ms since the epoch   
      int tzShift;    // timezone in minutes from UTC 
};

Best regards,
Bernard
