localtime an gmtime probs

[gromit]

Hi all
programming a pda

localtime and gmtime both show error of

Missing prototype for 'localtime'.


#include <time.h>
time_t now;
  struct tm *tm_now;
   now = time ( NULL );
  tm_now = localtime ( &now );

This from my searches appears to be a problem with whereby localtime will not work in my PDA

Am unable to take advantage of %V or %U format strings to return week Number



currently using Windows API
GetLocalTime(&st);    // address of system time structure 

This does not seem to allow for a format string  to return week Number

Looking for another way to fill a  _tm struct

Any Advice gratefully recieved

Hi Gromit,
I don't know wich System you are use.
The Systemtime of windows CE 5.0 is without the week number.
Look on MSDN http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa450923.aspx

I hope its helpful

Thanks for the link but so far no joy.
I will keep slogging away at this one
Think i may have to do a
Return week num from yearday using divide by 7
Then calculate if first week is in fact week 53 or not

If i find a definitive way to do this i will post it

In the meantime any further suggestions gratefully recieved
Big Thanks gromit

Hi Gromit,

if you like the german way to calc the calenderweek
you must look to the 4 rules

1) First week with 4 Days
2) First week with a thursday
3) The Week include the 4 January
4) First complete Week

I found this KWeek = ((d - t - 3 + (Weekday(t) + 1) Mod 7)) \ 7 + 1

I hope is helpfull.

Bye Kaljj
