These functions are inspired by C standard interfaces named similarly.
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
.Fn offtime
|
||
|
|
converts the calendar time
|
||
|
|
.Fa clock ,
|
||
|
|
offset by
|
||
|
|
.Fa offset
|
||
|
|
seconds,
|
||
|
|
into broken-down time, expressed as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
.Fn timeoff
|
||
|
|
converts the broken-down time
|
||
|
|
.Fa tm ,
|
||
|
|
expressed as UTC,
|
||
|
|
offset by
|
||
|
|
.Fa offset
|
||
|
|
seconds,
|
||
|
|
into a calendar time value.
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
.Fn timegm
|
||
|
|
converts the broken-down time
|
||
|
|
.Fa tm
|
||
|
|
into a calendar time value, effectively being the inverse of
|
||
|
|
.Xr gmtime 3 .
|
||
|
|
It is equivalent to the C standard function
|
||
|
|
.Xr mktime 3
|
||
|
|
operating in UTC.
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
.Fn timelocal
|
||
|
|
converts the broken down time
|
||
|
|
.Fa tm ,
|
||
|
|
expressed as local time, into a calendar time value.
|
||
|
|
It is equivalent to the C standard function
|
||
|
|
.Xr mktime 3 ,
|
||
|
|
and is provided for symmetry only.
