may be simple but i don't know -- Print current date from C program
How to print current date of the Unix system accessing thru C++ program ?
I wrote like this
#include <time.h>
.......
time_t tt;
struct tm *tod;
....
time(&tt);
tod = localtime(&tt);
cout << tod->tm_mon + 1 << "/"
<< tod->tm_mday << "/"
<< tod->tm_year << endl;
Still the year/ date /month printed is not correct
The asctime(tod) prints Fri Feb 15 05:49:29 2002 the correct date
But the cout << tod->tm_mon / tm_mday / tm_year prints wrong values only
The output is like
2/17/146
which has not correspondance with Feb 15/ 2002 date
Please help
Thanks

alevt-date
ALEVT-DATE(1) Teletext time ALEVT-DATE(1)
NAME
alevt-date - display/set time received via Teletext
SYNOPSIS
alevt-date [options]
DESCRIPTION
alevt-date displays the time received from a Teletext source. It can be used to set the system time. The date is not interpreted (not
even transmitted on most channels). So it allows only adjustment of +/-12 hours. The default allowed adjustment is limited to +/-2 hours
(use -delta to change). Without the -set option it just displays the date in the format of the date(1) command.
OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below.
-set Set system time from time received via Teletext.
-delta seconds Maximum allowed adjustment made to the system time. The default is 7200 seconds (2 hours) and the maximum that may be
given is 12 hours.
-format string Format string to used to print the time. Look at strftime(3) for possible control sequences.
-vbi device Use the given device name (default: /dev/vbi0).
-timeout seconds If the time can't be detected in seconds, the program is terminated with a SIGALRM.
--help Show summary of options.
--version Show version of program.
Before starting this program, you have to set the TV channel with another program like xawtv of set-tv.
Note: This program does not set the battery backed up clock of your computer. clock -w will do this.
FILES
/dev/vbi*
SEE ALSO
alevt(1x), alevt-cap(1), strftime(3), date(1), clock(8).
BUGS
This program is just a toy. The time transmitted by the TV stations is more than inaccurate. Some are within a few seconds of your local
time reference but others are more then 15 minutes off. You've been warned. (And don't assume the pkt8/30 time is better. It's even
worse.)
No bug reports to <froese@gmx.de> *g*.
