Re: How to detect system date change in MFC
Take a look at SetWaitableTimer, that's the only timer I know of that can do
absolute time.

Hi,
I am developing a secruity surveillance application, where i am
recording videos from a CCTV camera. I have to record the videos in
that particular days directory in date tree format. The thing is when
the system date changes to a different date i should be able to detect
that and start recording the videos in a different directory. I know i
can use the settimer and ontimer functions, but say the settimer is
called at 23.30 and the duration is set to 1 hr then the ontimer event
will fire at 00.30 am its already half an hour into the next day. Is
there any inherent way of detecting the system date change and
handling it? I want to start recording videos in a different directory
the moment the system clock changes from 23.59 to 00.00. Is there a
way this can be done?
Thanks
