I am porting some legacy code from windows to Linux (Ubuntu Karmic to be precise).

I have come across a Win32 function GetDateFormat().

The statements I need to port over are called like this:

GetDateFormat(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, 0, &datetime, "MMMM", 'January', 31);

OR

GetDateFormat(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, 0, &datetime, "MMMM", 'May', 30);

Where datetime is a SYSTEMTIME struct.

Does anyone know where I can get the code for the function - or failing that, tips on how to "roll my own" equivalent function?
