How do read system time using eVC3?

Hi,
I was attempting to port some old project(s) that use <time.h>, eVC3 has no header or lib file. Where is it, or am I stuck using bloated MFC?

How do I access the system time? The eVT3 docs aren't helping.

I recommend to look for some sample source code out of the OpenNET Compact Framework. I believe they've done time.h implementation that is compatible with Windows CE.

I will try to look for it in Platform Builder (at least time panel will use time functions).

Check this one. It's from CE PB 4.2, but it should be applicable to 3.0.

It's ok. I've got it working. Have to use the WinCE API. GetSystemTime() etc. The structure is back to front compared with the tm structure in Std-C

Have a look here if you're interested. (I picked up the link from a WinCE blogger on MSFT, but thanks go to smb_gaiden for the same info)

Thanks Alt Bass,

even with the correct header, it will refuse to link without the corresponding .lib file(s).
