Hi Mike,
for an Embedded Wizard GUI application the current time is the local time - this means UTC plus time zone plus daylight saving time offset.
For that purpose, the Runtime Environment (RTE) function EwGetTime() is called. In case of Windows or Linux, the implementation of EwGetTime() is using some operating system functions to get the current local time.
In case of most embedded systems (MCUs) the function EwGetTime() calls the BSP interface function EwBspGetTime() in order to access the RTC of the hardware. This means, either your BSP handles the current time aspects - or you need to handle that within EwBspGetTime().
Does this answer your question?
Best regards,
Manfred.
