time function

[Action12]

Im supposed to make a function that prints the current time in the format like: 11:20:23 pm.


Here is what I got so far. Any hints would be helpful...

void printTime()
{
	time t*clock_p = newtime_t;
	time_t clock;

	int seconds, minutes, hours;

	int T;
	clock = time(clock_p)

		T = (int)clock;

	// lost on rest...






	return;

Found this on MSDN:

 // crt_asctime.c
#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>

struct tm *newtime;
time_t aclock;

int main( void )
{
   time( &aclock );   // Get time in seconds
   newtime = localtime( &aclock );   // Convert time to struct tm form 

   /* Print local time as a string */
   printf( "Current date and time: %s", asctime( newtime ) );
}

[Action12]

any help following my format above?

Take a look here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...1b(VS.71).aspx

Remarks:
The asctime function converts a time stored as a structure to a character string. The timeptr value is usually obtained from a call to gmtime or localtime, which both return a pointer to a tm structure, defined in TIME.H.

What about using COleDateTime :

	COleDateTime time =	COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime();
	CString szMyTime = time.Format(VAR_TIMEVALUEONLY);

?
