MISRA.DEFINE.WCSFTIME.2012

MISRA C 2012 Rule 21.10: The Standard Library time and date functions shall not be used

No macro with 'wcsftime' name shall be expanded.

This checker applies to the C99 portion of the rule.

C90 [Unspecified 22; Undefined 80, 97; Implementation 75, 76]

C99 [Unspecified 43, 44; Undefined 146, 154, 182; Implementation J.3.12(39–42)]

Category: Required

Analysis: Decidable, Single Translation Unit

Applies to: C90, C99

Amplification

None of the facilities that are specified as being provided by <time.h> shall be used. In C99, the identifier wcsftime shall not be used and no macro with this name shall be expanded.

Rationale

The time and date functions have unspecified, undefined and implementation-defined behaviours associated with them.
