Example

   The following example shows how to retrieve the current local
   time of the system in the binary OpenVMS format, convert the
   OpenVMS format time to a UTC-based binary timestamp (using the
   system's TDF), and print an ASCII representation of the binary
   timestamp.

/*********  start example mkvmslocaltime
 *********/
#include <utc.h>

main()
{
char outstring[UTC_MAX_STR_LEN];
struct utc utcTime;
int vmsTime[2];

SYS$GETTIM(vmsTime);                      /* read current time      */

if (utc_mkvmslocaltime(&utcTime,vmsTime)) /* convert the local time */
    exit(1);                              /* vmsTime to UTC using   */
                                          /* the system tdf.        */

/* convert to ISO ascii*/   utc_asclocaltime(outstring,UTC_MAX_STR_LEN,&utcTime);
/* format and print */   printf("Current time=> %s\n",outstring);
}
