Check date with C++ -

i check if current date specific set date, , if date correct, run code block. else end script. i'm thinking, this:

int/string? date = ????;  if(date==10/07/13){     } else      return 0; 

i have variable named date, current date. issues see having slashes within it. also, add writing on english windows 7 computer, , opened on dutch windows 7 computer.. issue?

this should started:

#include <ctime> #include <iostream>  int main() {     std::time_t tp = std::time(null);   // current time, integer                                         // counting seconds since epoch      std::tm * ts = std::localtime(&tp); // parsed human conventions       std::cout << "year: " << 1900 + ts->tm_year << "\n"               << "month: " << ts->tm_mon << "\n"               << "day: " << ts->tm_mday << "\n"         ; } 

instead of localtime (which uses current locale) can use gmtime time in utc.
