Thread: Problem with time.h

Code:

#include <time.h>

time_t plaintime;
tm *ptm;
 
time(&plaintime);
ptm = localtime(&plaintime);
if (ptm.tm_hour >= 0 && ptm.tm_hour <= 4)
 {cout << "A special message!...";}

My problem is within the if statement...why can't I access these parts of the tm structure? Do they not exist?

Help greatly appreciated!

Thanks...that was a silly mistake on my part.
