Defined in header <cwchar>
std::size_t wcsftime( wchar_t* str, std::size_t count, const wchar_t* format, const std::tm* time );

Converts the date and time information from a given calendar time time to a null-terminated wide character string str according to format string format. Up to count wide characters are written.

Parameters

str - pointer to the first element of the wchar_t array for output
count - maximum number of wide characters to write
format - pointer to a null-terminated wide character string specifying the format of conversion
time - pointer to the date and time information to be converted

Format string

The format string consists of zero or more conversion specifiers and ordinary characters (except %). All ordinary characters, including the terminating null character, are copied to the output string without modification. Each conversion specification begins with % character, optionally followed by E or O modifier (ignored if unsupported by the locale), followed by the character that determines the behavior of the specifier. The following format specifiers are available:

Conversion
specifier 		Explanation Used fields
% writes literal %. The full conversion specification must be %%.
n
(哋它亢++11) 		writes newline character
t
(哋它亢++11) 		writes horizontal tab character

y writes last 2 digits of year as a decimal number (range [00,99]) tm_year
Oy
(哋它亢++11) 		writes last 2 digits of year using the alternative numeric system, e.g. 十一 instead of 11 in ja_JP locale tm_year
Ey
(哋它亢++11) 		writes year as offset from locale's alternative calendar period %EC (locale-dependent) tm_year
C
(哋它亢++11) 		writes first 2 digits of year as a decimal number (range [00,99]) tm_year
EC

G

W writes week of the year as a decimal number (Monday is the first day of the week) (range [00,53]) tm_year, tm_wday, tm_yday
OW
(哋它亢++11) 		writes week of the year, as by %W, using the alternative numeric system, e.g. 五十二 instead of 52 in ja_JP locale tm_year, tm_wday, tm_yday
V

Return value

Number of wide characters written into the wide character array pointed to by str not including the terminating L'\0' on success. If count was reached before the entire string could be stored, ​0​ is returned and the contents are undefined.

Example

Run this code
#include <ctime>
#include <cwchar>
#include <iostream>
#include <locale>
 
int main()
{
    std::locale::global(std::locale("ja_JP.utf8"));
    std::time_t t = std::time(nullptr);
    wchar_t wstr[100];
    if (std::wcsftime(wstr, 100, L"%A %c", std::localtime(&t)))
        std::wcout << wstr << '\n';
}
