Converting esriFieldTypeDate numeric value to a proper DateTime value

Question

ArcGIS REST service is returning the value of a date column  as 1185840000000.

Can anyone tell me how in this world that can be converted to a proper date time in C#?

sansan,

The date value you mentioned is epoch time,which is defined as the number of seconds since midnight (UTC) on 1st January 1970.public DateTime FromUnixTime(long unixTime) {     var epoch = new DateTime(1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, DateTimeKind.Utc);     return epoch.AddSeconds(unixTime); }
