Hi.
I'm trying to figure out hte extent of LeapSecond support in the Gnu C libraries. In many places, the documentation includes phrases like "...if LeapSecond support is enabled..." but nowhere have I found documentation of how to enable (or use) it, or how to determine whether support is enabled in my distribution.
Can anyone out there point me to some documentation?
Thanks,
-RL
p.s. On a related note, does anyone know if Microsoft Windows/Visual C++ offers any support? And if not, how do they keep the system from breaking down do to inconsistencies between forward and backward calculations between tm* and time_t ?
