how to print SYSTEMTIME

mihai123

Hello I'm new in MFC and all this small and ease tasks in c# seems to me very impossible in MFC. I'm trying to do a log file. I need to take the current system time and date and then transformed it in CString in order to write them in the file. Tnx for the help, And have a nice weekend.

Use CString::Format (or sprintf in the example below) see this[^] for an example.

You mean MFC is hard? You must write an ActiveX control in plain Win32, my friend :rolleyes:

SYSTEMTIME time;
GetSystemTime(&time);
CString str;
str.Format("Year: %d, Month:%d, Day of month:%d, 
                Day of week:%d",time.wYear, time.wMonth, time.wDay, time.wDayOfWeek);
AfxMessageBox(str);

Never used MFC for that. ATL was far much better ;P .

No, the point was that the OP said doing things with MFC is hard. So, I thought how nice it must be for the OP to write an ActiveX control with Win32, not even MFC. :rolleyes:
