[Dondolo M. <MDo...@OL...>]

Hi all,

Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong. I get an error
"aggregate struct dos_date_t today has incomplete type and cannot be
initialised."

can some one please help me reconstruct the syntax


//program displaying the date and time
//

#include<iostream.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<dos.h>

main()
{
struct dos_date_t today;
struct dos_time_t theTime;

dos_getdate( &today );
cout<<"The date is "<<(int)today.month
    <<"/"<<(int)today.day<<"/"<<today.year<<"\n";
    
 dos_gettime( &theTime);
  cout<<"The time is "<<(int)theTime.hour<<":";
     
       if(theTime.minute<10)
       cout<<'0';
       cout<<(int)theTime.minute<<":";
       
       if(theTime.seconds<10)
       cout<<'0';
       cout<<(int)theTime.seconds<<"\n";
       
       system("PAUSE");
       return 0;
       }

Re: [Dev-C++] Re: Time Display

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

If you look into dos.h, you'll notice that it doesn't contain any time
handling functions or structures, so obviously the compiler doesn't have
the faintest what "struct dos_date_t" is.

If you on the other hand take a look into time.h, you'll find a lot of
standard time-handling functions and structures there.

#include <iostream>
#include <time.h>

time_t t;
struct tm *local;

// alt 1
t = time(NULL);
cout << ctime(&t);

// alt 2
t = time(NULL);
local = localtime(&t);
std::cout << "local time is " << asctime(local);
std::cout << "gmt time is " << asctime(gmtime(&t));

std::cout << "current year is " << localtime.tm_year;

The name of that structure is dosdate_t, not dos_date_t, same goes for =
doestime_t
