std::chrono::system_clock::to_time_t(3)

NAME
std::chrono::system_clock::to_time_t - std::chrono::system_clock::to_time_t

Synopsis
   static std::time_t to_time_t( const time_point& t ) noexcept; (since C++11)
   Converts t to a std::time_t type.
   If std::time_t has lower precision, it is implementation-defined whether the value
   is rounded or truncated.

Parameters
   t - system clock time point to convert

Return value
   A std::time_t value representing t.

Example
   Get the current time as a std::time_t two ways. // Run this code
 #include <chrono>
 #include <ctime>
 #include <iostream>
 #include <thread>
 using namespace std::chrono_literals;
 int main()
 {
     // The old way
     std::time_t oldt = std::time({});
     std::this_thread::sleep_for(2700ms);
     // The new way
     auto const now = std::chrono::system_clock::now();
     std::time_t newt = std::chrono::system_clock::to_time_t(now);
     std::cout << "newt - oldt == " << newt - oldt << " s\n";
 }

Possible output:
 newt - oldt == 3 s
