ftime(3C)                        DG/UX 5.4.2                       ftime(3C)


NAME
       ftime - get date and time

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <sys/timeb.h>

       int ftime (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
              {
                      timet 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.
