OFFTIME(3) NetBSD Library Functions Manual OFFTIME(3)
NAME
offtime, offtime_r, timeoff, timegm, timelocal -- convert date and time
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <time.h>
struct tm *
offtime(const time_t * clock, long int offset);
struct tm *
offtime_r(const time_t * clock, long int offset, struct tm *ret);
time_t
timeoff(struct tm * tm, long int offset);
time_t
timegm(struct tm * tm);
time_t
timelocal(struct tm * tm);
DESCRIPTION
These functions are inspired by C standard interfaces named similarly.
offtime() converts the calendar time clock, offset by offset seconds,
into broken-down time, expressed as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
offtime_r() is similar to offtime() but it places the returned struct tm
* in the user supplied ret argument.
timeoff() converts the broken-down time tm, expressed as UTC, offset by
offset seconds, into a calendar time value.
timegm() converts the broken-down time tm into a calendar time value,
effectively being the inverse of gmtime(3). It is equivalent to the C
standard function mktime(3) operating in UTC.
timelocal() converts the broken down time tm, expressed as local time,
into a calendar time value. It is equivalent to the C standard function
mktime(3), and is provided for symmetry only.
