HI,
Your example below is not thread-safe. I suggest that you
change it to pass in a pointer to a place to store the
result instead of using static "dtt" in the function
(and remove the "len" argument, since it is not needed).
That is, change the function signature to:
DT_T *AGUTIL_get_date_and_time(DT_T *buf, time_t *tv)
By the way, even if yout program is not using threads,
it's a good thing to write all of your code to be
thread-safe, since someone else may want to use it
in a threaded environment, and if a signal handler
gets control, you may have the same issues as with
threading.
