NEWSTRFTIME(3) Library Functions Manual NEWSTRFTIME(3)
NAME
strftime - format date and time
SYNOPSIS
#include <time.h>
size_t strftime(char *restrict buf, size_t maxsize,
char const *restrict format, struct tm const *restrict timeptr);
cc ... -ltz
DESCRIPTION
The strftime function formats the information from timeptr into the
buffer buf according to the string pointed to by format.
The format string consists of zero or more conversion specifications
and ordinary characters. All ordinary characters are copied directly
into the buffer. A conversion specification consists of a percent sign
and one other character.
No more than maxsize characters are placed into the array. If the
total number of resulting characters, including the terminating null
character, is not more than maxsize, strftime returns the number of
characters in the array, not counting the terminating null. Otherwise,
zero is returned.
Each conversion specification is replaced by the characters as follows
which are then copied into the buffer.
%A is replaced by the locale's full weekday name.
%a is replaced by the locale's abbreviated weekday name.
%B is replaced by the locale's full month name.
%b or %h
is replaced by the locale's abbreviated month name.
%C is replaced by the century (a year divided by 100 and truncated
to an integer) as a decimal number (00-99).
%c is replaced by the locale's appropriate date and time
representation.
%D is replaced by the date in the format %m/%d/%y.
%d is replaced by the day of the month as a decimal number (01-31).
%e is replaced by the day of month as a decimal number (1-31);
single digits are preceded by a blank.
%F is replaced by the date in the format %Y-%m-%d.
%G is replaced by the ISO 8601 year with century as a decimal
number.
%g is replaced by the ISO 8601 year without century as a decimal
number (00-99).
%H is replaced by the hour (24-hour clock) as a decimal number
(00-23).
%I is replaced by the hour (12-hour clock) as a decimal number
(01-12).
%j is replaced by the day of the year as a decimal number
(001-366).
%k is replaced by the hour (24-hour clock) as a decimal number
(0-23); single digits are preceded by a blank.
%l is replaced by the hour (12-hour clock) as a decimal number
(1-12); single digits are preceded by a blank.
%M is replaced by the minute as a decimal number (00-59).
%m is replaced by the month as a decimal number (01-12).
%n is replaced by a newline.
%p is replaced by the locale's equivalent of either AM or PM.
%R is replaced by the time in the format %H:%M.
%r is replaced by the locale's representation of 12-hour clock time
using AM/PM notation.
%S is replaced by the second as a decimal number (00-60).
%s is replaced by the number of seconds since the Epoch (see
newctime(3)).
%T is replaced by the time in the format %H:%M:%S.
%t is replaced by a tab.
%U is replaced by the week number of the year (Sunday as the first
day of the week) as a decimal number (00-53).
%u is replaced by the weekday (Monday as the first day of the week)
as a decimal number (1-7).
%V is replaced by the week number of the year (Monday as the first
day of the week) as a decimal number (01-53). If the week
containing January 1 has four or more days in the new year, then
it is week 1; otherwise it is week 53 of the previous year, and
the next week is week 1.
%W is replaced by the week number of the year (Monday as the first
day of the week) as a decimal number (00-53).
%w is replaced by the weekday (Sunday as the first day of the week)
as a decimal number (0-6).
%X is replaced by the locale's appropriate time representation.
%x is replaced by the locale's appropriate date representation.
%Y is replaced by the year with century as a decimal number.
%y is replaced by the year without century as a decimal number
(00-99).
%Z is replaced by the time zone name, or by the empty string if
this is not determinable.
%z is replaced by the offset from the Prime Meridian in the format
+HHMM or -HHMM as appropriate, with positive values representing
locations east of Greenwich, or by the empty string if this is
not determinable. The numeric time zone -0000 is used when the
time is Universal Time but local time is indeterminate; by
convention this is used for locations while uninhabited, and
corresponds to a zero offset when the time zone abbreviation
begins with "-".
%% is replaced by a single %.
%+ is replaced by the date and time in date(1) format.
