How to customize the creation time (ctime)?

I also needed to modify ctime a while ago and wrote the following setcreatetime.cpp:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <Entry.h>

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
	BEntry* entry;

    int year, month, day, hour, min, sec;
	
	if(argc != 3)
	{
		printf("Usage: setcreatetime [filename] [Date/Time in format YYYY:MM:DD MI:HH:SS]\n");
		return 0;
	}

   if(sscanf(argv[2], "%4d:%2d:%2d %2d:%2d:%2d", &year, &month, &day, &hour, &min, &sec) != 6)
   {
		printf("Invalid date/time format\n");
		return -1;	
   }
    struct tm newTime = {0};
    newTime.tm_year = year - 1900;
    newTime.tm_mon = month - 1;
    newTime.tm_mday = day;
    newTime.tm_hour = hour;
    newTime.tm_min = min;
    newTime.tm_sec = sec;

	entry = new BEntry(argv[1]);
    entry->SetCreationTime(mktime(&newTime));
}
