Date and Time: General-Purpose Classes

This article describes how to take advantage of the class library general-purpose services related to date and time management. Procedures described include:

• Getting the current time

• Calculating elapsed time

• Formatting a string representation of a date/time

The CTime class provides a way to represent date and time information easily. The CTimeSpan class represents elapsed time, such as the difference between two CTime objects.

Примечание.
CTime objects can be used to represent dates between January 1, 1970, and January 18, 2038. CTime objects have a resolution of 1 second. CTime is based on the time_t data type, defined in the Run-Time Library Reference.
