Problem
When trying to create an RWTime beyond the year 2036 (specifically beyond Feb. 5, 2037, for most platforms) I get an invalid RWTime.
Cause
RWTime keeps the time as the number of seconds since 00:00:00 Jan. 1, 1901 GMT in an unsigned long variable. Feb. 5, 2037 represents the limit of the unsigned long on platforms with four-byte longs (MAX_ULONG). RWTime also can only correctly represent RWDates up to the year 2037.
Action
Derive from RWTime and extend this class.
