Get the time

{{{
string GetTimeStr(int secs);

char* GetTimeStr(char* pszBuffer, int secs);

string GetTimeStr(datetime_struct* pTime, int secs);

char* GetTimeStr(datetime_struct* pTime, char* pszBuffer, int secs);
}}}

== Parameters == 

 * secs - 0 = format time without secs, 1 = include seconds
 * pszBuffer - buffer to hold formatted time, application programmer must insure that this buffer is large enough for the time.
 * pTime - pointer to datetime_struct to format the time from instead of current time.

== Return Value ==

 * Returns the time formatted as "HH:MM:SS" or "HH-MM-SS", or "HH:MM x.m.", based on boot loader preferences. Application developers should consider that time string will be longer if preferences are set for 12 hour time. The versions of the function that take a pointer to a datetime_struct allow a string to be formatted from an arbitrary time.

== Remarks ==

This function returns the time information that is in memory based on a previous call to GetLinuxTime() or IsTimeChanged().

== Examples ==

{{{
string strTime = GetTimeStr(1);
DisplayText(10, 10, strTime);
}}}

{{{
char szTime[20];
GetTimeStr(szTime, 1);
DisplayText(10, 10, szTime);
}}}

{{{
datetime_struct dt;
dt.hour = 9;
dt.minute = 21;
dt.second = 30;

string strTime = GetTimeStr(&dt, 1);
DisplayText(10, 10, strTime);
}}}

{{{
datetime_struct dt;
dt.hour = 9;
dt.minute = 21;
dt.second = 30;

char szTime[20];

GetTimeStr(&dt, szTime, 1);
DisplayText(10, 10, szTime);
