Not sure what it is your trying to do, you may have your wires crossed,
If you want to get a long value into a string format, you could do this:
long myLong = 1231213;
CString strLong;
strLong.Format("%d",myLong);
//strLong will then be "1231213"//////////////////////
or if the other way round...getting a long from a string
CString strLong = "1231213";
l = atol( s );
If you have to use a char[] and not a CString then do this, this is prob what you want to do.....
long myLong = 1231213;
sprintf( someChar, "%d",longvalue);
will give "1231213" in char[] named someChar
Is this what you mean???

I have a COleDateTime object initialised in the following way.
COleDateTime m_ReadPointer = COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime();
I need to know a way to update the object to reflect the correct datetime given the TimeZone id. For eg. 1259
A Code snippet will be helpful

GetTimeFormat(..) is ur solution, well sorry i dont have the code how to use it, but its parameters are pretty stright forward.

Well GetTimeFormat(..) doesnt have any timezone related stuff
|
|
|
|
|
Not sure what you mean but is it just a case off adding/subtracting a time
component to the COleDataTime, this can be done easily by the use of the
COleDateTimeSpan MFC class...
I could be misunderstanding the question though!!!
let me know and I will provide a code snippet

Ok its got nothing to do with COleDateTimeSpan.
Actually i have a string like 1259 (for GMT), 1125 (for EST)
I need to use that string to update my m_ReadPointer object. so that any time i query for on it is in the timezone of the GMT/EST irrespective of the local system timezone.

How does 1259 and 1125 reflect the time zone???!!???

I am lost since morning to find the co - relation.
Since a java applicationis giving me that value

Hmmm... No idea but.....
look at java functions maybe its worth passing some other data like....
the TimeZone has an operation as follows
getOffset( int era, int year, int month, int day, int dayOfWeek, int milliseconds )
era = the era of the given date.
year = the year in the given date.
month = the month in the given date. Month is 0-based. e.g., 0 for January.
day= the day-in-month of the given date.
dayOfWeek = the day-of-week of the given date. )= Monday etc
milliseconds = the millis in day.
Returns
the offset to add *to* GMT to get local time, as an int
You could use this, couldn't you????

Exactly i was thinking on similar lines cos i do not find ne thing on the C++ side to associate with that Timezone id directly.
I will calculate the offset on the java side it self & give it to VC to add/subtract to the COleDateTime object
|
|
|
|
|
Cool , goodluck with it, that TimeZone ID was bizarre

Are you sure of these? Isn't 1259 for Melbourne, Australia, and 1125 for Mendoza, Texas? Just a guess.
How are you getting a 4-digit number from the TimeZone class? From what I can tell, all the ids are 3 characters.

Ok these strings make sense wrt to the java.util.TimeZone class. I can get the timezone name from this class like "GMT"/"GMT+5:30".
I saw the other eg. u gave using the struct TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION.
But my query is what from the java side TimeZone class i can give to the VC++ to get the time on the VC++ side in the concerned timezone

Ok i have my answer. The rawoffset of the Timezone object cud be used to co relate with the Bias & hence i can achieve what i want
Thanks for ur help

Look at the Bias member of TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION structure.

but how will that help me. I have done study of all the structures of c++.

Apparently not, or you would know that that structure is used by GetTimeZoneInformation().

yup i do know that too but the data i have in hand is a TimeZone id which is java specific.
How do i use that value to update my COleDateTime object

You don't (or maybe the id you have from Java's TimeZone class is a requirement, in which case I'm not sure of a solution). The Bias member of the TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION structure tells you how far from UTC you are and in what direction. Here is one solution:
TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION tza;
COleDateTime today = COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime();
GetTimeZoneInformation(&tza);
cout << "The local time is " << (LPCTSTR) today.Format("%H:%M:%S") << endl;
today.m_dt = today.m_dt + (tza.Bias / 1440.0);
cout << "UTC time is " << (LPCTSTR) today.Format("%H:%M:%S") << endl;

I have some problems using the new HTML editing classes.
I found a very intresting article about it here on Codeproject, sadly it could'nt help me with my problem.
I wan't to use the IDM_HYPERLINK MSHTML identifier to insert a hyperlink in a html doc. But the function hyperlink(LPCTSTR szUrl = NULL) won't accept my links, it returns an HRESULT error.
Am I supposed to make my URL's look in a special way?
I've tried http://www.adress.com and URL:http://www.adress.com,
but none of them works.
Could someone please help me?
/Markus
P.S the one writing the article was Chris Maunder, sadly I couldn't find any ways of contacting him directly. I hope that at least he knows the answer to my question...

I'm using time.h, to get time of the day. In my code it is converted into number so it is possible to read the time. But I will have it in ascii format.
I dont know how to do to get hour, min and sec into ascii. I will not have them converted into numbers.
My code:
time_t tid;
tm * ptm;
time(&tid);
ptm = gmtime(&tid);
struct timeval *Tps;
struct timezone *Tzp;
Tps = (struct timeval* ) malloc(sizeof(struct timeval));
Tzp = 0;
gettimeofday(Tps, Tzp);
hour = ptm->tm_hour; //become integers, will have ascii
min = ptm->tm_min;
sec = ptm ->tm_sec;
//Stefan

Try sprintf(buffer, "%02d:%02d:%02d", hour, min, sec);

yes, I can use it, but then there will be digits. I will have it in ascii format, because it take less space in a file.
|

For saving space issue, I would use this way...
Seven bytes for the whole date and time.
unsigned char sDateTime[7] = { 20, 03, 2, 19, 16, 17, 55 };
int iYr, iMon, iDay, iHr, iMin, iSec;
// To extract from buffer...
iYr = sDateTime[0] * 100 + sDateTime[1];
iMon = sDateTime[2];
iDay = sDateTime[3];
iHr = sDateTime[4];
iMin = sDateTime[5];
iSec = sDateTime[6];

Hi!
Your solution were good. It made me think in another way. But there is one problem.
How will I solve microseconds (6 digits)?? Two digits is one byte, so six digits willbe 3 byte??
