LOCALTIME(3) NEWLIB LOCALTIME(3)NAME
9.6 `localtime'--convert time to local representation
SYNOPSIS
#include <time.h>
struct tm *localtime(time_t *CLOCK);
struct tm *localtime_r(time_t *CLOCK, struct tm *RES);
DESCRIPTION
`localtime' converts the time at CLOCK into local time, then converts
its representation from the arithmetic representation to the tradi‐
tional representation defined by `struct tm'.
`localtime' constructs the traditional time representation in static
storage; each call to `gmtime' or `localtime' will overwrite the infor‐
mation generated by previous calls to either function.
`mktime' is the inverse of `localtime'.
RETURNS
A pointer to the traditional time representation (`struct tm').
PORTABILITY
ANSI C requires `localtime'.
`localtime' requires no supporting OS subroutines.
SEE ALSOlocaltime is part of the library. The full documentation for is main‐
tained as a Texinfo manual. If info and are properly installed at your
