querying the age of a row

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings,
I've got a PostgreSQL-8.1.x database on a Linux box.  I have a need to
determine which rows in a specific table are less than 24 hours old.
I've tried (and failed) to do this with the age() function.  From what
I can tell, age() only has granularity down to days, and seems to
assume that anything matching today's date is less than 24 hours old,
even if there are rows from yesterday's date that existed less than 24
hours ago.

I've googled on this off and on for a few days, and have come up dry.
At any rate, is there a reliable way of querying a table for rows
which have existed for a specific period of time?
