TIMEGM(3)						     Linux Programmer's Manual							 TIMEGM(3)

NAME

       timegm, timelocal - inverses for gmtime and localtime

SYNOPSIS

       #include <time.h>

       time_t timelocal (struct tm *tm);

       time_t timegm (struct tm *tm);

DESCRIPTION

       The functions timelocal() and timegm() are the inverses to localtime(3) and gmtime(3).

NOTES

       These  functions  are GNU extensions.  The timelocal() function is equivalent to the POSIX standard function mktime(3).	There is no reason
       to ever use it.

       For a portable version of timegm(), set the TZ environment variable to UTC, call mktime() and restore the value of TZ.  Something like

	      #include <time.h>
	      #include <stdlib.h>

	      time_t my_timegm (struct tm *tm) {
		  time_t ret;
		  char *tz;

		  tz = getenv("TZ");
		  setenv("TZ", "", 1);
		  tzset();
		  ret = mktime(tm);
		  if (tz)
		      setenv("TZ", tz, 1);
		  else
		      unsetenv("TZ");
		  tzset();
		  return ret;
	      }
