What timestamp field?
<P>If you are referring to the standard C time_t which is actually just
an int then take a look at the localtime function. It returns you the following
structure.
<P>struct tm
<BR>{
<BR>&nbsp; int tm_sec;
<BR>&nbsp; int tm_min;
<BR>&nbsp; int tm_hour;
<BR>&nbsp; int tm_mday;
<BR>&nbsp; int tm_mon;
<BR>&nbsp; int tm_year;
<BR>&nbsp; int tm_wday;
<BR>&nbsp; int tm_yday;
<BR>&nbsp; int tm_isdst;
<BR>};
<P>Edward Sumerfield.

sorry, I was unclear.

I am referring to the AW_OBJECT_BUILD_TIMESTAMP attribute returned by =

I have a recent question on something of this. In a thread farther up I
was asking about the time(). I got the example given to run, but when I
tried to get the bot to timestamp the console window when someone came
in, everytime someone entered, it would just crash with a core dump. I
can post the contents of the dump if it's necissary... any reason why
this doesn't work?

The standard C time is also an int, typedef'ed to time_t, that is a number of
seconds since some base date. Is that not 1970 aswell? I seem to remember that
1970 was the unix base time.

Try and find out on which line the program crashes. Either by adding printf
statements until you narrow it down or by using the debugger and stepping
through until it crashes.

You describe a problem that may have nothing to do with a time function.

well, the program works just fine without the timestamp coding. then once I add
it and it is activated (ie, by the user entering the world) then the bot
crashes. So, I would think it obviously has something to do with the timestamp.
Nothing else in the program was altered aside from adding that coding.
