Hello, I am relatively new to programming in C++, being one of the first
at BNR Richardson to 'test the water' of object oriented programming. 
I am responsible for writing a piece of code that must take a time and
date and convert it for storage as a time_t (long) type. The best functions
I can think of for the task are timegm and timelocal.  However, while
they have always worked fine for me in C, I am having trouble compiling the
code in C++. I have included the C++ version of time.h as the manual pages
tell me to, but this .h file does not define these functions (only gmtime,
localtime, time, etc...).  Is there something I am missing? Are my AT&T 
v2.0 C++ include files wrong?

I would appreciate any help you can give me on this.

Thanks in advance,
Sean Thompson
