  1. Nice example. But i get warnings on its compilation:
    warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
    warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function ‘strftime’.

    GCC version is gcc (GCC) 4.1.1 (Gentoo 4.1.1-r1 p1.7.1).

    What is wrong?

  2. it’s most probably due to a cast problem.
    The strftime’s prototype is :
    size_t strftime(char *s, size_t maxsize, const char *format, const struct tm *timptr);

    Hope this will help.
