c - Convert Epoch Time string to Time

Question

I've been looking for a way to convert a string (in Epoch time) into a date.

Basically, I need to take this: 1360440555 (in string form) and make it into this: Feb 9 12:09 2013.

I've been looking at strptime and strftime, but neither seems to be working for me. Any suggestions?

Edit: Thanks, guys. I converted it to an int with atoi(), cast it as time_t, then ran ctime() on it. Worked perfectly!

If only you had that value in an integer instead of a string, you could just call ctime. If only there were some way to convert a string to an integer....

time_t c;
c = strtoul( "1360440555", NULL, 0 );
ctime( &c );
