    Question Display date of server..

    I'm running a server, and I would like to display current date for my server...

    Why the following codes are incorrect? My compiler won't let me compile, as it refer I declared the the "server" variable wrongly..

    Code:
    			time_t now = time(NULL);
       			tm *t = localtime(&now);
    			struct date {
    				char day;
    				char month;
    				char year;
    			}
    			
    			date server;
    			server.day->tm_mday;
    			server.month->tm_mon+1;
    			server.year->tm_year+1900;
    			
    			cout << server;
    Anyone can point me what is wrong? Anyhelp wouldb e appreciated.

    Try:
    Code:
    			time_t now = time(NULL);
       			tm *t = localtime(&now);
    			struct date {
    				int day;
    				int month;
    				int year;
    			}
    			
    			date server;
    			server.day = tm->tm_mday;
    			server.month = tm->tm_mon+1;
    			server.year = tm->tm_year+1900;
    			
    			cout << server.day << "/" << server.month << "/" << server.year << endl;
    Or:
    Code:
    			time_t now = time(NULL);
       			tm *t = localtime(&now);
    			char date[30];
    			if ( strftime(date, sizeof(date), "%x", t) != 0 )
    			   cout << date << endl;
