Hi all,
I need to simulate current date and time and provide integer values for the
current year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and millisec. I need to do
this in unmanaged C++. My first inclination is to do roughly the same thing
that I would do in managed code: I would maintain a 64-bit integer value
that represents the number of millisec. (or nanosec.) since some date. I
would periodically increment this integer by the appropriate amount. My
question is, is there an unmanaged C/C++ function (maybe something buried in
the Windows API) that can perform the year/month/date conversion for me?
TIA!

See the Win32 FILETIME and SYSTEMTIME structures and associated functions
like FileTimeToSyste mTime. They do almost exactly what you describe above,
and can do additional things like time zone conversion, locale-specific
calendars, and more. I use them for all sorts of unmanaged date/time tasks.

Is there a safe and clean way to parse a date/time string into

I have a string with date and time in GMT. I can get the correct

Hi,
I want to parse strings containing date-time, which look like the
following:
"Mon Dec 19 11:06:12:333 CET 2005"
That's a problem for strptime it seems, b/c I cannot find any
format-spec for the milliseconds-part in here. (I'm also not sure about
the validity of the tz part, but ...)

Hallo,
I know a lot has already been told about date/time fields in a database but
still confuses me, specif when dealing with SQLserver(Express).
It seems that sqlserver only accepts the date in a "yyyyMMdd" format?
(difference between Express and MSDE2000A ?)
What is the one and only true way to deal with this problem in VB2005:
Local settings are Dutch (Belgium) ; thus date is in "dd/MM/yy" (or perhaps
dd/MM/yyyy) and time in...

Is there a way to get the internet date/time. I saw an article that uses
WinSock, but WinSock doesn't seem to be available in Access.
I want to verify that the date/time on the local PC running my application is
correct, so I was hoping I could get the Internet date/time. I understand
that there is a NTP protocol to do this.
Thanks.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
