# MongoDate::__construct

(PECL mongo >= 0.8.1)

MongoDate::__construct — Creates a new date.

### Description

public MongoDate::__construct ([ int `$sec` = time() [, int `$usec` = 0 ]] )

Creates a new date. If no parameters are given, the current time is used.

### Parameters

`sec`

  Number of seconds since the epoch (i.e. 1 Jan 1970 00:00:00.000 UTC).

`usec`

  Microseconds. Please be aware though that MongoDB's resolution is milliseconds and not microseconds, which means this value will be truncated to millisecond resolution.

### Return Values

Returns this new date.

### Examples

Example #1 MongoDate::__construct() example

This example demonstrates creating a new date with the current time and a new date with a given time.

`<?php
$d = new MongoDate();
echo "$d\n";
$d = new MongoDate(1234567890);
echo "$d\n";
$d = new MongoDate(strtotime("2009-05-01 00:00:01"));
echo "$d\n";
?>`

The above example will output something similar to:

    0.23660600 1235685067
    0.00000000 1234567890
    0.00000000 1241150401
