Convert total seconds to date time format

[Arif Liminto]

HI, I am doing visual c++ 2003, and I want to ask about how to convert the data type format ( TotalSeconds) to date format, I know how to convert from date format to total seconds but how to convert in the reverse way, I don't know this is the way that I convert from date format to total seconds Ctime Now = CTime::GetCurrentTime(); CTime UCT(0); CTimeSpan Diff = Now - UCT; return Diff.GetTotalSeconds(); but how to convert in the reverse way I would be grateful if you guys can help me :) Regards, Arif Liminto

I am not sure that I understand your question but I believe that you are asking how to convert a 64 bit integer containing CTime total seconds back into a CTime object. If this is what your looking for then perhaps the following code will help.CTime tNow = CTime::GetCurrentTime(); OutputDebugString(tNow.Format(_T("Current Time: %A, %B %d, %Y\n"))); LONGLONG i64TotalSeconds = tNow.GetTime(); //seconds since January 1, 1970 CTime tBack(i64TotalSeconds); OutputDebugString(tBack.Format(_T("Converted Time: %A, %B %d, %Y\n")));

Store your number of seconds in a time_t variable and pass it to one of the functions that takes a time_t (or time_t *); then process the result.Eg

int main ()
{
  time_t rawtime;
  struct tm * timeinfo;

  time ( &rawtime ); // here rawtime is the time in seconds
  timeinfo = localtime ( &rawtime );
  printf ( "The current date/time is: %s", asctime (timeinfo) );
  
  return 0;
}

Hope it helps

Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them. ;-)_AnShUmAn_
