This small program reproduces the bug in my project.
time_t variable is converted to struct_tm, then to string, and serialized to file.
Later, this string is loaded from the file, and should be converted back to time_t.
Resulting time_t differs from original by one hour (possibly because of daylight saving
time). I can change only deserialization part, because file format should remain
unchanged.
#include
"stdafx.h"

using namespace
std;
string FormatDateTime(struct tm*
time);
void Test();
int _tmain(int argc,
_TCHAR* argv[])
{
Test();
return
0;
}
string FormatDateTime(struct
tm* time)
{
static const char* months[] =
{
"Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov",
"Dec"
};
char s[30];
const char*
month;
if ( time->tm_mon >= 0 && time->tm_mon
< 12 )
{
month = months[time->tm_mon];
}
else
{
month = "??";
}
sprintf(s, "%d-%s-%02d %02d:%02d:%02d",
time->tm_year + 1900,
month,
time->tm_mday,
time->tm_hour,
time->tm_min,
time->tm_sec);
return
s;
}
void Test()
{
//
time_t variable is initialized with current time
time_t t =
time(NULL);
// time_t variable is converted to struct tm and then
to string
struct tm* ptm =
localtime(&t);
char
buffer[100];
sprintf(buffer, "%d %d %d %d %d %d",
ptm->tm_mday, ptm->tm_mon + 1, ptm->tm_year + 1900, ptm->tm_hour,
ptm->tm_min, ptm->tm_sec);
cout << buffer <<
endl; // string is OK
// string is saved to the
file
//
*********************************************************************************************
// later this string is restored from the file
// **** I can
change something only after this line **** //
struct tm
stm;
memset(&stm, 0, sizeof(stm));
sscanf(buffer,
"%d %d %d %d %d %d",
&stm.tm_mday, &stm.tm_mon,
&stm.tm_year, &stm.tm_hour, &stm.tm_min,
&stm.tm_sec);
stm.tm_mon -= 1;
stm.tm_year -=
1900;
string s = FormatDateTime(ptm);
cout
<< s << endl; // OK
//
*********************************************************************************************
// Now I need to convert struct tm to time_t and keep it in the
variable
time_t t1 = mktime(&stm); // not the same time - 1
hour difference
if ( t1 == t )
{
cout
<< "t1 == t" << endl;
}
else
{
cout << "t1 != t !!!!!" << endl;
}
// time_t is printed - result is incorrect
// Utilities::FormatDateTime
struct tm* ptm1 =
localtime(&t1);
s =
FormatDateTime(ptm1);
cout << s <<
endl;
}
Local time is
11.33. Result:
19 7 2012 11 33
17
2012-Jul-19 11:33:17
t1 != t
!!!!!
2012-Jul-19
12:33:17
How can I change the last
part of this program to get correct result?
