In my tests it worked. What do you propose instead?
Not adding routines to crossplatform interfaces till it is demonstrated it
is properly implementable on all platforms. (or at least *nix, OSX and
Windows, with *nix having some overlap with OS X)
Crossplatform functions which are only stubs on some platforms are useless
and should not be added.
I don't see the problem.
As far as I can see, NowUTC should simply return the kernel time and not perform
the shift to local time (which Now() should do).
Surely this works on all platforms ?
Michael.
