Here's a program to calculate the number of days between two dates.
But it won't compile because of "strptime" which is not defined in
djgpp. Can someone help me to correct this problem?
Thanks, myron_seto AT hotmail DOT com

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <time.h>
const char *format = "%x";
const long secondsperday = (24 * 60 * 60);
static char *program;
void usage(void);
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
struct tm first, second;
if ( NULL == (program = strrchr(argv[0], '/')) )
program = argv[0];
else
program++;
if ( 3 != argc ) {
usage();
exit(1);
}
if ( NULL == strptime(argv[1], format, &first) ) {
usage();
exit(1);
}
if ( NULL == strptime(argv[2], format, &second) ) {
usage();
exit(1);
}
printf("%d\n", (mktime(&second) - mktime(&first)) / secondsperday);
}
void usage()
{
fprintf(stderr, "usage: %s %s %s\n", program, format, format);
fprintf(stderr, "\t see man date for more info\n");
