CTime::GetDayOfWeek
Returns the day of the week represented by the CTime object.
int GetDayOfWeek( ) const throw( );
Return Value
Returns the day of the week based on local time; 1 = Sunday, 2 = Monday, to 7 = Saturday.
Remarks
This function calls GetLocalTm, which uses an internal statically allocated buffer. The data in this buffer is overwritten because of calls to other CTime member functions.
Example
// Print out the day of the week using localized day name
UINT DayOfWeek[] = {
LOCALE_SDAYNAME7, // Sunday
LOCALE_SDAYNAME1,
LOCALE_SDAYNAME2,
LOCALE_SDAYNAME3,
LOCALE_SDAYNAME4,
LOCALE_SDAYNAME5,
LOCALE_SDAYNAME6 // Saturday
};
TCHAR strWeekday[256];
CTime time(CTime::GetCurrentTime()); // Initialize CTime with current time
::GetLocaleInfo(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, // Get string for day of the week from system
DayOfWeek[time.GetDayOfWeek()-1], // Get day of week from CTime
strWeekday, sizeof(strWeekday) / sizeof(strWeekday[0]));
ATLTRACE(_T("%s\n"), strWeekday); // Print out day of the week
