WCSFTIME(3) BSD Library Functions Manual WCSFTIME(3)NAME
wcsftime, wcsftime_l -- convert date and time to a wide-character string
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <wchar.h>
size_t
wcsftime(wchar_t *restrict wcs, size_t maxsize, const wchar_t *restrict format, const struct tm *restrict timeptr);
#include <wchar.h>
#include <xlocale.h>
size_t
wcsftime_l(wchar_t *restrict wcs, size_t maxsize, const wchar_t *restrict format, const struct tm *restrict timeptr, locale_t loc);
DESCRIPTION
The wcsftime() function is equivalent to the strftime() function, except for the types of its arguments. Refer to strftime(3) for a detailed
description.
While the wcsftime() function uses the current locale, the wcsftime_l() function may be passed a locale directly. See xlocale(3) for more
information.
COMPATIBILITY
Some early implementations of wcsftime() had a format argument with type const char *, instead of const wchar_t *.
SEE ALSO strftime(3), xlocale(3)STANDARDS
The wcsftime() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (``ISO C99'').

Strange behaviour of the strftime() function from gawk (3.1.5):
$ awk 'BEGIN{print strftime("%T", 3600)}'
> 02:00:00
$ awk 'BEGIN{print strftime("%T", 0)}'
> 01:00:00
Obviously something with DST but I can not figure out why? To me 3600 epoch seconds remains 01:00, DST or not.

Hi,
I'm wrote a small program on HPUX that uses wcsftime, but this function seems to be not working - I get 0 as a result, the output buffer returns empty, and errno is 0 :
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
size_t formattedTimeLength = 0;
wchar_t formattedTime... (9 Replies)
HI,
i wish to convert a millsec value to a readable string format.
the one option is to use strftime.
However this is a bit costly (1-5 micros).
is there a a faster way to do so with just string manipulation
(Note i have the date object which has the time details but wish o avoid strftime) (2 Replies)
I frequently use awk time functions and am switching some scripts over to mawk. I don't have the mktime or strftime functions in mawk, but it appears that there is a way, as explained here in "Time functions":
Please only cut-and-past links to man pages from our man pages.
So, simple... (10 Replies)
