int
ftime
(struct timeb *tp);
The
ftime
()
routine fills in a structure pointed to by its argument, as defined by
⟨sys/timeb.h⟩:
/* * Structure returned by ftime system call */ struct timeb { time_t time; unsigned short millitm; short timezone; short dstflag; };
The structure contains the time since the epoch, in seconds; up to 1000 milliseconds of more-precise interval; the local time zone (measured in minutes of time westward from Greenwich); and a flag that, if nonzero, indicates that Daylight Saving time applies locally during the appropriate part of the year.
