#include <time.h>
time_t mktime(struct tm *timeptr);
The mktime() function
converts the broken-down time, expressed as local time, in the
structure pointed to by timeptr into a calendar time value
with the same encoding as that of the values returned by the
time() function.
The original values of the tm_wday and tm_yday
components of the structure are ignored,
and the original values of the other components are not
restricted to their normal values.
A positive or 0 value for tm_isdst causes
mktime() to presume initially that Daylight Savings Time
either is or is not in effect, respectively, for the specified time.
A negative value for tm_isdst causes mktime()
to attempt to determine whether Daylight Savings Time is in effect for the
specified time. Local time zone information is set as though
mktime() called tzset().
- timeptr
-
Points to the time structure to be converted to time_t.
On success, mktime() returns the time_t
equivalent of timeptr.
In addition, the tm_wday and tm_yday components
of the structure are set appropriately, and the other components are set to
represent the specified time, with their values forced to the normal ranged.
On error, mktime() returns -1.
