Hi,
I am basically a linux person being made to work on windows. and i have
been given a limited version of the windows i guess - for it doesn't
provide a proper help option :(. I sorely miss working on linux. but
now, I need to get the current date and if possible the current time as
well, from the system. I tried a lot of the inbuilt functions (like
localtime()) but it gave me errors that i couldn't rightly comprehend.
could anybody help me out with the function and its syntax, please?
Thanks a lot for your time and patience.
regards,
Scam. 7 2538

Are you a programmer or a luser? _Quote_ error messages, damn it! How
the blazes are we to help you solve your problem when all you're saying
is "it doesn't work"? I expect that kind of error report from my
clueless users, not from a colleague.
could anybody help me out with the function and its syntax, please?
If localtime() doesn't do the same thing under Windows as it does under
Linux, then either your Windows implementation is not a real C compiler,
or your Linux one isn't real C, or both. Or perhaps you weren't using it
correctly on Linux in the first place? We can't tell unless you post
code.

Service Pack 7 fixes that (and all other Windows problems), and is
downloadable for free, from: http://www.isolinux.org

"The C Programming Language", Kernighan and Ritchie, 2nd edition, 1988,
Prentice Hall. I draw your attention particularly to pages 255-257.

....is irrelevant, since the question can be answered in standard C terms,
and was asked in a standard C newsgroup.
