Convert the local time to a calendar value.

time_t mktime(
   struct tm *timeptr 
);
__time32_t _mktime32(
   struct tm *timeptr 
);
__time64_t _mktime64(
   struct tm *timeptr 
);

Parameters

timeptr
Pointer to time structure; see asctime.

Return Value

_mktime32 returns the specified calendar time encoded as a value of type time_t. If timeptr references a date before midnight, January 1, 1970, or if the calendar time cannot be represented, _mktime32 returns –1 cast to type time_t. When using _mktime32 and if timeptr references a date after 03:14:07 January 19, 2038, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), it will return –1 cast to type time_t.

_mktime64 will return –1 cast to type __time64_t if timeptr references a date after 23:59:59, December 31, 3000, UTC.

Remarks

The mktime, _mktime32 and _mktime64 functions convert the supplied time structure (possibly incomplete) pointed to by timeptr into a fully defined structure with normalized values and then converts it to a time_t calendar time value. The converted time has the same encoding as the values returned by the time function. The original values of the tm_wday and tm_yday components of the timeptr structure are ignored, and the original values of the other components are not restricted to their normal ranges.

mktime is an inline function that is equivalent to _mktime64, unless _USE_32BIT_TIME_T is defined, in which case it is equivalent to _mktime32.

After an adjustment to UTC, _mktime32 handles dates from midnight, January 1, 1970, to 03:14:07, January 19, 2038. _mktime64 handles dates from midnight, January 1, 1970 to 23:59:59, December 31, 3000. This adjustment may cause these functions to return -1 (cast to time_t, __time32_t or __time64_t) even though the date you specify is within range. For example, if you are in Cairo, Egypt, which is two hours ahead of UTC, two hours will first be subtracted from the date you specify in timeptr; this may now put your date out of range.

These functions may be used to validate and fill in a tm structure. If successful, these functions set the values of tm_wday and tm_yday as appropriate and set the other components to represent the specified calendar time, but with their values forced to the normal ranges. The final value of tm_mday is not set until tm_mon and tm_year are determined. When specifying a tm structure time, set the tm_isdst field to:

Zero (0) to indicate that standard time is in effect.
A value greater than 0 to indicate that daylight saving time is in effect.
A value less than zero to have the C run-time library code compute whether standard time or daylight saving time is in effect.

The C run-time library will determine the daylight savings time behavior from the TZ environment variable. If TZ is not set, the Win32 API call GetTimeZoneInformation is used to get the daylight savings time information from the operating system. If this fails, the library assumes the United States' rules for implementing the calculation of daylight saving time are used. tm_isdst is a required field. If not set, its value is undefined and the return value from these functions is unpredictable. If timeptr points to a tm structure returned by a previous call to asctime, gmtime, or localtime (or variants of these functions), the tm_isdst field contains the correct value.

Note that gmtime and localtime (and _gmtime32, _gmtime64, _localtime32, and _localtime64) use a single buffer per thread for the conversion. If you supply this buffer to mktime, _mktime32 or _mktime64, the previous contents are destroyed.

These functions validate their parameter. If timeptr is a null pointer, the invalid parameter handler is invoked, as described in Parameter Validation. If execution is allowed to continue, the functions return -1 and set errno to EINVAL.

Requirements

Routine	Required header
mktime	<time.h>
_mktime32	<time.h>
_mktime64	<time.h>

For additional compatibility information, see Compatibility in the Introduction.

Libraries

All versions of the C run-time libraries.

Example

// crt_mktime.c
/* The example takes a number of days
 * as input and returns the time, the current
 * date, and the specified number of days.
 */

#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main( void )
{
   struct tm  when;
   __time64_t now, result;
   int        days;
   char       buff[80];

   time( &now );
   _localtime64_s( &when, &now );
   asctime_s( buff, sizeof(buff), &when );
   printf( "Current time is %s\n", buff );
   days = 20;
   when.tm_mday = when.tm_mday + days;
   if( (result = mktime( &when )) != (time_t)-1 ) {
      asctime_s( buff, sizeof(buff), &when );
      printf( "In %d days the time will be %s\n", days, buff );
   } else
      perror( "mktime failed" );
}

Sample Output

Current time is Fri Apr 25 13:34:07 2003

In 20 days the time will be Thu May 15 13:34:07 2003
