NAME
ftime -- get date and time
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/timeb.h> int ftime(struct timeb *tp);
DESCRIPTION
This interface is obsoleted by gettimeofday(2). 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.
LEGACY SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/timeb.h> The include file <sys/types.h> is necessary.
