FileTimeToLocalFileTime

Converts a file time to a local file time.

Syntax

BOOL FileTimeToLocalFileTime(
    [in]    const FILETIME* lpFileTime,
    [out]   LPFILETIME lpLocalFileTime
);

Parameters

[in] lpFileTime

A pointer to a FILETIME structure containing the UTC-based file time to be converted into a local file time.

[out] lpLocalFileTime

A pointer to a FILETIME structure to receive the converted local file time. This parameter cannot be the same as the lpFileTime parameter.

Return Value

If the function succeeds, it returns a non-zero value. If the function fails, it returns 0 (zero). Call GetLastError to get extended error information.

Remarks

FileTimeToLocalFileTime uses the current settings for the time zone and daylight-saving time. Therefore, if it is daylight-saving time, this function will take it into account, even if the time you are converting is in standard time.
