TIME(2) — UNIX Programmer’s Manual
NAME
time, ftime − get date and time
SYNOPSIS
long time(0)
long time(tloc)
long ∗tloc;
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/timeb.h>
ftime(tp)
struct timeb ∗tp;
DESCRIPTION
Time returns the time since 00:00:00 GMT, Jan. 1, 1970, measured in seconds.
If tloc is nonnull, the return value is also stored in the place to which tloc points.
The ftime entry fills in a structure pointed to by its argument, as defined by <sys/timeb.h>:
/∗
static char timeb_h_SCCS_ID[] = "@(#)timeb.h 4.1 10/26/82";

struct timeb {
time_ttime;
unsigned short millitm;
shorttimezone;
shortdstflag;
};
The structure contains the time since the epoch in seconds, up to 1000 milliseconds of more-precise interval, the local time zone (measured in minutes of time westward from Greenwich), and a flag that, if nonzero, indicates that Daylight Saving time applies locally during the appropriate part of the year.
