RE: Mcsec in Timestamp, is it possible

[tomh@xxxxxxxxx]

It made for interesting reading, especially the part about "8 microseconds to the tick", but how would you code this in RPGIV?  And how would I retrieve the date, or time of day, from mattod?


*/

#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <QSYSINC/MIH/MATTOD>

void main()
{
   unsigned long long t[10];
   int i;

   /* get 10 consecutive time readings */
   for (i=0; i<10; i++){
      mattod((char*)&(t[i]));
      printf(" "); /* slight delay */
   }
   printf("\n");

   for (i=0; i<10; i++)
   {
      printf("Original Hex:0x%llX " , t[i]);
      /* right-shift the clock bits from high to low for number of ticks */
      t[i] = t[i] >> 15;
      printf("ticks:%lld \n", t[i]);
   }
}

Dimitri,

I have no experience with this, but I just saw a URL for that today:

What a coincidence!
