ftime(3B)
NAME
ftime − get date and time
SYNOPSIS
/usr/ucb/cc [ flag ... ] file ...
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/timeb.h>
int ftime( tp)
register struct timeb ∗tp;
DESCRIPTION
The ftime() entry fills in a structure pointed to by its argument. The structure is defined in <sys/timeb.h> and contains the following members:
| 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 (this member is ignored — it does not have a valid value on return), and a flag that, if nonzero, indicates that Daylight Saving time applies locally during the appropriate part of the year.
