How to get nsdate with millisecond accuracy?

Question

I need to get time in millisecond accuracy. How can I get it from NSDate. Currently when I NSLog time, it is showing only upto seconds.

Answer 1

For those who want to get the time in mili seconds (like in Java)

double timestamp = [[NSDate date] timeIntervalSince1970];
int64_t timeInMilisInt64 = (int64_t)(timestamp*1000);

(tested with iOS7 and the iPhone simulator using Xcode 5)
