\title{Efficient data.table to xts conversion}
\description{
Efficient conversion of data.table to xts, data.table must have \emph{POSIXct} or \emph{Date} type in first column.
}
\usage{
as.xts.data.table(x, \dots)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{data.table to convert to xts, must have \emph{POSIXct} or \emph{Date} in the first column. All others non-numeric columns will be omitted with warning.}
\item{\dots}{ignored, just for consistency with generic method.}
}

\examples{
if (requireNamespace("xts", quietly = TRUE)) {
sample.dt <- data.table(date = as.Date((Sys.Date()-999):Sys.Date(),origin="1970-01-01"),
quantity = sample(10:50,1000,TRUE),
value = sample(100:1000,1000,TRUE))
# print data.table
print(sample.dt)
# print head of xts
print(head(as.xts.data.table(sample.dt))) # xts might not be attached on search path
