This example shows how to set the clock one hour ahead.
#define INCL_DOSDATETIME /* Date and time values */ #define INCL_DOSERRORS /* DOS error values */ #include <os2.h> #include <stdio.h> int main(VOID) { DATETIME DateTime = {0}; /* Structure to hold date/time info. */ APIRET rc = NO_ERROR; /* Return code */ rc = DosGetDateTime(&DateTime); /* Retrieve the current date and time */ if (rc != NO_ERROR) { printf ("DosGetDateTime error : return code = %u\n", rc); return 1; } DateTime.hours = (UCHAR) ((BYTE) DateTime.hours + 1); /* Set clock ahead for Daylight Savings Time */ rc = DosSetDateTime(&DateTime); /* Update the date and time */ if (rc!= NO_ERROR) { printf ("DosSetDateTime error : return code = %u\n", rc); return 1; } rc = DosGetDateTime(&DateTime); /* Retrieve the date and time */ if (rc!= NO_ERROR) { printf ("DosGetDateTime error : return code = %u\n", rc); return 1; } else { printf("Today is %d-%d-%d; the time is now %d:%2.2d\n", DateTime.month, DateTime.day, DateTime.year, DateTime.hours, DateTime.minutes); } return NO_ERROR; }
