Converting local time to GMT/UTC

[Popoi]

Hello all.

I'm working in Microsoft eMbedded Visual C++ developing an app for Windows
CE 5.0, and I've read in places that the functions
SystemTimeToTzSpecificLocalTime and TzSpecificLocalTimeToSystemTime should be
available, but when i try to use them, I get compiler errors and i can't
quite figure out where they are located.

Although, going to MSDN, i can't find these listed under 'Time Functions'
for CE 5.0, but i can for Win32.
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa450771(v=MSDN.10).aspx ,
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms725473(v=VS.85).aspx ).

So, what gives. are these available on CE 5.0? Is there some trick to
obtaining access to them, or is there a different way to convert times?

Those functions are not available in WinCE 5.0.

Can you tell us exactly what you are trying to do?

Convert a local time (not necessarily the current time) to GMT or UTC, and
vice versa.

Use GetSystemTime(), this will provide you the time in UTC.

You can use SystemTimeToFileTime and FileTimeToSystemTime to convert
between formats, and can then use FileTimeToLocalTime and
LocalTimeToFileTime to convert between UTC and local.
