Add DateTime

Convenience Function

Declaration

tibrv_status tibrvMsg_AddDateTime(
  tibrvMsg                message,
  const char*             fieldName,
  const tibrvMsgDateTime*  value);
tibrv_status tibrvMsg_AddDateTimeEx(
  tibrvMsg                 message,
  const char*              fieldName,
  const tibrvMsgDateTime*  value,
   tibrv_u16               fieldId);

Purpose

Add a field containing a Rendezvous datetime value.

Parameter	Description
message	Add the new field to this message.
fieldName	Create the new field with this name.
value	Add a new field that contains this datetime value. The function copies the data into the new message field.
fieldId	Create the new field with this identifier. Zero is a special value that signifies no field identifier. All non-zero field identifiers must be unique within each message. It is illegal to add a field that has both a NULL field name, and a non-zero field identifier.

Example

This example code fragment converts a time_t value to a datetime value, and adds the datetime to a message field. Programs can adapt this example as appropriate. (For corresponding code to extract a datetime value from a message field, and convert it to a time_t value, see the example at Get DateTime.)

#include <limits.h>
tibrv_status
addAsTimeT(tibrvMsg msg,
        const char * field,
        time_t value)
{   tibrvMsgDateTime d;
    d.nsec = 0;
    d.sec = (tibrv_i64) value;
    return tibrvMsg_AddDateTime(msg, field, &d); }
