This example shows how to convert a date and time to a Unicode string using

the specified locale object.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <unidef.h>

int main(void) {

LocaleObject locale_object = NULL;
struct tm    *ptime;

time_t       time_date;
UniChar      ucs[30];
int          max_size = 30;
int          elements;
int          rc = ULS_SUCCESS;

         /*****************************************************************/
         /* Assumes LANG environment variable set to a valid locale name, */
         /* such as fr_FR                                                 */
         /*****************************************************************/

         rc = UniCreateLocaleObject(UNI_UCS_STRING_POINTER,
                                   (UniChar *)L"", &locale_object);

         if (rc != ULS_SUCCESS) {
           printf("UniCreateLocaleObject error: return code = %u\n", rc);
           return 1;
         }

         time_date = time(NULL);

         ptime = localtime(&time_date);


         /* elements contains number of code elements placed into ucs */

         elements = UniStrftime(locale_object, ucs,
                               max_size,
                               (UniChar *)L"%a %b %d\n %I:%M %p",
                               ptime);

         return (ULS_SUCCESS);


}
