Ctime question

[rtnMichael]

Hey guys, if I wanted to get the current time in seconds, how would I do it with Ctime....or maybe I don't even use Ctime. I want to delete files after a certain time limit and I do a stat on the file and it gives me it's creation time in seconds (I believe ;o)), so I need to get this current time and compare them. I need the time in seconds only.

Thanks
Mike

Use time_t tnow = time(0) from C++ Std <ctime> == seconds from 1970-01-01T00:00:00. Check your file time seconds epoch (must be the same null point!). Excelsior!..
