I know that and know what difference of long between 32 and 64. But I think strptime is not relative to this issue,since the struct tm store each date parts in a int or a char*,not like the unix timestamp store as a long. And the codes works fine on my 32bit debian. btw:The "older" word cannot be used to compare tow date? If so,I am Sorry for my bad English..

The manpage(man 3 strptime) says:

in the 20th century (1969-2000), years 01-68 in the 21st century (2001-2068).

You mean "strptime cannot parse date later than 2038". The famous Y2038 bug.

If you compile your program with the compiler flag "-arch x86_64" or "-arch ppc64", you get the correct result.
