Tim Peters added the comment: FYI, this person seems to have made a career ;-) of making sense of the Windows time functions:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7685762/windows-7-timing-functions-how-to-use-getsystemtimeadjustment-correctly and their site: http://www.windowstimestamp.com/description Bottom line is that it's messy as everything else on Windows :-( They claim, among other things: - "GetSystemTimeAdjustment is not the function to look at." - The undocumented NtQueryTimerResolution() is the function to look at. - "Time Adjustment: 0.0156001 clearly identifies windows VISTA or higher with HPET and/or constant/invariant TSC on your system." Screw it - I'm gonna go shovel more snow ;-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19999> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
