To get the number of the last day in a month, subtract one day from the first day of next month. In unix C: unsigned int lastday(const time_t t) { /* * compute the day before the first day of next month */ struct tm lt; unsigned int lday; time_t ttime; localtime_r(&t, &lt); lt.tm_mday = 1; ++lt.tm_mon; ttime = mktime(&lt) - 60*60*24; localtime_r(&ttime, &lt); return lt.tm_mday; } -- William Warner bill.warner@attws.com
