__TIME__ - Output compilation time (macro)

Definition

__TIME__

This macro generates the time of compilation of a source file as a string in the form:

"hh:mm:ss\0"

where 

hh	hours
mm	minutes
ss	seconds

Notes

The format of the time information corresponds to the asctime function.

This macro does not have to be defined in an include file. Its name is recognized and replaced by the compiler.

Example

#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
printf("Program %s was compiled on %s at %s hours\n", argv[0],
__DATE__, __TIME__);
return 0;
}
