Getting current time of a different timezone using C++

Question

How do i get the current time of a different time zone? Example, i need to know the current time in Singapore where as my system is set to PT time.

Answer 1

Use UTC (GMT) as much as possible.

If you need to (for example) print a report that's going to another time zone, use something like SystemTimeToTzSpecificLocalTime() to localise it.
