Hi!
I'd recommend

SYSTEMTIME tSystemtime;
....
GetLocalTime(&tSystemtime);

The definition of the SYSTEMTIME structure comes with winbase.h:

typedef struct _SYSTEMTIME {
WORD wYear;
WORD wMonth;
WORD wDayOfWeek;
WORD wDay;
WORD wHour;
WORD wMinute;
WORD wSecond;
WORD wMilliseconds;
} SYSTEMTIME;

Greetings,

Kerstin

Note that GetSystemTime() returns Greenwich Mean Time, not the local time of
the device. If you want local time, use GetLocalTime(), which has the same
signature as GetSystemTime() but converts for the device time zone before
returning the information.

I don't believe that the Windows CE run-time from MS has any support for
timeval-based time information (the sockets library uses it some, but that's
it, as far as I can see).
