Arguments

 

timlen

   OpenVMS usage:word_unsigned
   type:         word (unsigned)
   access:       write only
   mechanism:    by 32- or 64-bit reference
   Length (in bytes) of the ASCII string returned by $ASCUTC. The
   timlen argument is the 32- or 64-bit address of a word containing
   this length.
 

timbuf

   OpenVMS usage:time_name
   type:         character-coded string text
   access:       write only
   mechanism:    by 32- or 64-bit descriptor-fixed-length string
                 descriptor
   Buffer into which $ASCUTC writes the ASCII string. The timbuf
   argument is the 32- or 64-bit address of a character string
   descriptor pointing to the buffer. The buffer length specified in
   the timbuf argument, together with the cvtflg argument, controls
   what information is returned.
 

utcadr

   OpenVMS usage:coordinated universal time
   type:         utc_date_time
   access:       read only
   mechanism:    by 32- or 64-bit reference
   Time value that $ASCUTC is to convert. The timadr argument is the
   32- or 64-bit address of this 128-bit time value. Relative times
   are not permitted. If the timadr argument is not specified, it
   defaults to 0 and $ASCUTC returns the current date and time.
 

cvtflg

   OpenVMS usage:longword_unsigned
   type:         longword (unsigned)
   access:       read only
   mechanism:    by value
   Conversion indicator specifying which date and time fields
   $ASCUTC should return. The cvtflg argument is a longword value
   that is interpreted as Boolean. The value 1 specifies that
   $ASCUTC should return only the time, including hour, minute,
   second, and hundredths-of-second fields. The default value 0
   specifies that $ASCUTC should return the full date and time.
