Getting system Time

[moonoo]

Hi
How to get the System time without using the MFC classess
CTime and CString..
I want the date and time in the YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS format
and i am using the follwing code

time_t ltime ;
char tmpbuf[128] ;
struct tm *today;
today = localtime( &ltime );
strftime(tmpbuf,25,"%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S",today);

This funcyion is giving the Date 1970/01/01 09:00:00 in stead of the current time and date..
Is there some others structures and functions available by which i can get the current date and time by the above method(without using the MFC Classes)

Please give an early reply..

you have to do this i believe:

ltime = time(NULL);

befor useing localtime()

fairly simple:

TimeToStr(time()); Cyprus
