I am just new to <time.h> and have a question regarding to time_t and time().
I read the function time() documented as follows:
time_t time ( time_t * timer ); Get current time
Get the current calendar time as a time_t object.
The function returns this value, and if the argument is not a null pointer, the value is also set to the object pointed by timer.
The documentation does not talk about time zone.
Thus, for the following C++ code:
time_t t = time(NULL);
If two machines, one in US and the other one in UK, both execute the function call time(NULL) at the same time, will the returned time_t objects be identical?
Will time() returns a value regardless of time zone?
