Subsequent calls to these -function will modify the same object. -.Pp -The -.Fa tm_zone -field of a returned tm structure points to a static array of characters, -which will also be overwritten by any subsequent calls (as well as by -subsequent calls to -.Xr tzset 3 -and -.Xr tzsetwall 3 ) . -.Pp -Use of the external variable -.Fa tzname -is discouraged; the -.Fa tm_zone -entry in the tm structure is preferred. -.Pp -Avoid using out-of-range values with -.Fn mktime -when setting up lunch with promptness sticklers in Riyadh. |
