Dang, that seems like a lot of work.
Standard C functions give you this ability.
char *printdate(void)
{
struct tm *tp;
static char date[80];
time_t thetime = time(NULL);
tp = localtime(&thetime);
sprintf(date, (char *)"%d/%d/%02d %d:%02d:%02d", 1 + tp->tm_mon,
tp->tm_mday,
tp->tm_year % 100, tp->tm_hour, tp->tm_min,tp->tm_sec);
return date;
}
Output: 2/5/04 12:01:31
