Also notes the usage of "unspecified". "Unspecified" means the standard does not say anything about the implementation, and, IMHO, the implementors are free to choose the best practices. I think it is obviously a good way to follow BSD.
Am I wrong? Best regards, Wu Yongwei --- Original Message from Christopher Faylor --- int gettimeofday(struct timeval *tp, void *tzp); DESCRIPTION The gettimeofday() function obtains the current time, expressed as seconds and microseconds since 00:00 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), January 1, 1970, and stores it in the timeval structure pointed to by tp. The resolution of the system clock is unspecified. If tzp is not a null pointer, the behaviour is unspecified. int ftime(struct timeb *tp); DESCRIPTION The ftime() function sets the time and millitm members of the timeb structure pointed to by tp to contain the seconds and milliseconds portions, respectively, of the current time in seconds since 00:00:00 UTC (Coordinated Universal Time), January 1, 1970. The contents of the timezone and dstflag members of tp after a call to ftime() are unspecified. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
