      Hi,

      I need to get date-time from internet probably from NIST Internet Time Service (ITS) for embedded Linux device.
      I need a QT C++ help and example for this. Any help most appreciated.

      Kind Regards?

          @Wieland Thank you, but my problem I cannot set the time zone for my embedded linux. There isn't any file /usr/share/zoneinfo/.
          So I set the hardware clock to the current system time using below comand.

          hwclock --systohc
          

          First I get time from my SQL server (which is updated every 15 min) and set it to manualy as;

          D_text = ReplaceDate(date.toString("ddd dd/MMMM/yyyy"));
          ui->labelDate->setText(D_text);
          showTimeStatus();
          

          and run system command

          system("hwclock --systohc").
          

          And worked nicely.

          Kind Regards
