    Build date and time

    Is there any way to get access to the time a build takes place? Not the date or time stamp for a particular source module, but the time of the most recent change to any source that went into the link or the time of the link edit.

    I don't believe that functionality is intrinsic to VC++. However, there are plenty of ways to keep track of this...

    Re: Build date and time

    There are __DATE__ and __TIME__ predefined ANSI C macros.
    (The most recent compilation date and time of the current source file)

    You can use them to initialize your static variables.
    I am not aware af anything like that in the linker.
