ftime(3c)                  DG/UX 4.30                   ftime(3c)



     NAME
          ftime - get date and time

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <sys/types.h>
          #include <sys/timeb.h>
          ftime(tp)
          struct timeb *tp;

     DESCRIPTION
          This interface is obsoleted by gettimeofday(2).

          Ftime 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 00:00:00 GMT, January
          1, 1970 (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.
