asctime_r (Reentrant) Converts the broken-down time to a string.
#include
char *asctime_r (
const struct tm *timeptr,/* pointer to broken-down time */
char *buf, /* result buffer */
int buflen /* result buffer length */
)
Description
Arguments
Return Value
Error Codes
asctime_r() is the reentrant version of the ANSI function asctime(), as defined
by POSIX 1003.1c. It converts the broken-down time pointed to by timeptr to an
equivalent string representation of the form:
Sun Jan 1 12:30:13 1995\n\0
and stores the string in the buffer pointed to by buf, which is assumed to have
space for at most buflen characters. An error may be returned if the converted
string contains more than buflen characters.
timeptr Points to a structure of type tm that stores the broken-down time.
The tm structure is defined in the mktime() description on page 3-
111.
buf Points to the buffer where asctime_r() stores the result.
buflen Specifies the size of buf.
Upon success, asctime_r() returns the value of buf. On failure, it returns NULL
and sets errno.
