I don't have any good suggestions. I'd probably try a functional notation: x = sec2ns(y) It needs another something to distinguish integers from floating point. ------ >> ./ntpd/ntp_loopfilter.c:# define NANOSECONDS 1e9 >> ./ntpd/ntp_loopfilter.c:#define MICROSECONDS 1e6 >> ./ntpd/ntp_control.c:#define MILLISECONDS 1000 /* milliseconds per >> second -magic numbers suck */ >> ./ntpfrob/bumpclock.c:#define NANOSECONDS 1000000000 > So?

Changing/fixing one is likely to miss the others. I assume the compiler doesn't complain about redefines if the result doesn't change. The one in bumbclock might be reasonable since it is only used in ntpfrob which is mostly off to the side rather than tangled up with ntpd/libntp. I didn't see any explanations. -- These are my opinions. I hate spam. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@ntpsec.org http://lists.ntpsec.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
