Hi,

Has anything change in regards to the C localtime function since 2007?
I've got a program with a function that uses it to present the date and
time that I just changed. The time isn't appearing only the date.

strlen is based on the current contents of the array ... it stops at the first null. So it's certainly possible that you will truncate output. sizeof would indeed be more appropriate, since you care about how much space you have available, not where the next null byte is in memory ...
