Example

The following example obtains and prints date and time information. It then changes the system date to 5/10/1987 and prints the updated information.

#define INCL_DOSDATETIME

#include <os2.h>

main()
{
  DATETIME   DateTime;       /* Structure to hold date/time info. */
  USHORT     rc;

  rc = DosGetDateTime(&DateTime);     /* Address of d/t structure */
  printf("Today is %d-%d-%d; the time is %d:%d\n", DateTime.month,
         DateTime.day, DateTime.year, DateTime.hours, DateTime.minutes);
  DateTime.day = 10;
  DateTime.month = 5;
  DateTime.year = 1987;
  printf("The new date is %d-%d-%d; the time is %d:%d\n", DateTime.month,
         DateTime.day, DateTime.year, DateTime.hours, DateTime.minutes);
  rc = DosSetDateTime(&DateTime);    /* Address of d/t structure */
  printf("rc is %d\n", rc);
 }
