Hi all
How can i get current system time in microseconds resultion?
thanks.
|
|
|
|
|
i would say that you can't get more than milliseconds.
|
|
|
|
|
Are U sure?
If so, Do you have any idea how the guys at "Rational" added the abitlity to show time in microsecs in Quantify?
thanks.

Have a look at this codeproject article that will answer your query:

I have been using a DOS C program for several years which obtains system time in 100 microsecond increments, though you could do better. It reads the internal timer, along with the tik time, to give improved resolution.
My version uses a floating point calculation, which precludes using the floating point emulator.
I'll email you the brief source code.

Since there appears to be no email, but only public and private postings, I'll post the source code here. The routines in 'interpts.h' are self-explanitory: install interrupts, including the clock-tick interrupt, which occurs every 18.2ms. The functions clock_tick is chained to this interrupt, and merely counts elapsed time, whose origin happens to be the installation of interrupts, but could be anything.
The routine mtime() happens to be used within an irq4 routine -- I want to know the time when a serial event occurs. It should be unnecessary to have mtime() occuring within an interrupt. Note that irq4 has lower priority than irq0.
A good (old) book on DOS programming might also help.
copy an paste:
/*
mtime.h
Purpose: get time with 100 microsecond resolution.
The resolution could be microsecond, but is 100 microsec because the
time is being stored as integers in a huge array.

// current time from tick time - accurate to 50 msec.
#define current_tick_time() (tick_time * seconds_per_tick) // clock in seconds.

/*
mtime.c
Purpose: determine time from tick_time and 8253 timer. Time is obtained
in 100 microsecond (tenth millisecond) units.
Also has interrupt routine which updates clock tick at each
bios clock-tick (18.2 times per second) - IRQ0.
Method: tick_time (from interpts.c) is updated with every bios tick, as
part of timer interrupt IRQ0. msec10_time() takes that tick
count, and the timer value (which is microsecond resolution),
and combines them for accurate time. If the timer tick, as
determined by the IRQ0 routine which increments it, is different
before and after the input instructions, then the input will be
done a second time (and won't infringe on another timer tick
increment). Note that tick_time *must* be declared volatile, or
the compiler will not retrieve it again at the end of the loop,
but will rather "optimize" this part away.
*NOTE* Floating point calculation used. The computer *must*
have a math coprocessor, and the software must be compiled
*without* the emulator option, since the emulator uses
software interrupts, and the calling program could be
doing a fp calc when this routine is called.
*NOTE* time will overflow after 5 days.

Thank you very much,

I'm have a strange problem with on_exit and signal. I wrote a simple console program which catches the Ctrl-C command (use signal and fgets) and calls exit. I use On_exit to assign a function which runs when the program exits. However, the program exits out just fine but does not run the exit routine. The program does call the exit routine when it exits without the Ctrl-C. Any advice? I have been able to catch the Ctrl-C. Instead of calling exit, I do a simple print statement. Individually they work but note together.

Hi
I'm trying put en richedit box in my dialog and when i try to run the program nothing happens. I have tried with AfxInitRichEdit() and used create() function but id didn't helped. Is there someone that is expert at this area.
Thanks in advance
WBR
Edi

Where do you call AfxInitRichEdit()?
You must call it before the dialog is displayed!
A typical place to call this function is in your program’s InitInstance member function.

|

Thank you. I had put it in OnInitDialog() but now i have removed it to InitInstance() and i works so long.
Thanks again.

I have to translate the following statement from VB to VC++:
CodeKey = "TheKey"
For i = 1 To Len(DataIn)
intXOrValue1 = Asc(Mid(DataIn, i, 1))
intXOrValue2 = Asc(Mid(CodeKey, ((i Mod Len(CodeKey)) + 1), 1))
strDataOut = strDataOut + chr(intXOrValue1 XOr intXOrValue2)
Next
This is an encryption algorithm, composing strDataOut by xoring characters from the original string and the string to be encrypted.
I tryed to convertit like this:
CString CodeKey = "TheKey"
for(int i=0;i
|
|
|
|
|
char *lpCode = (char*)malloc(256 /* <> ??? */ * sizeof(char));
char *p = lpCode; // p points to lpCode's end
strcpy(lpCode, "TheKey");
int i1, i2;
for(int i = 0; i < DataIn.GetLength(); i++)
{
i1 = DataIn.GetAt(i);
i2 = *(lpCode + (i % (int)(p - lpCode));
strDataOut += (i1 ^i2);
}
this may not work because of the modulus operator. but the main thing is: CStrings::GetLength() returns the difference between the position of the NULL char in the string and the beginning of it. use pointers instead like p to count manually the bytes that were added so one knows through the difference (p - lpCode) lpCode's length.
hope this helps

How do I get the number of serial ports available under Windows 2000?
Prefer to have a solution using win32.
|
|
|
|
|
Look at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\SERIALCOMM and see if that's at all helpful.

Whether does exist Microsoft Visual C ++ for Windows64-bit (no PreRelease)? If yes, how to receive it.

I don't think there's even a pre-release. For the moment, you need to use the compiler from the Driver Development Kit[^].

You are mistaken. Pre-release exists.

Hi
I have a problem with PKZIP using MFC.
I run the PKZIP program but it gives me an error:
PKZIP: <e7> Can't create: PKBACK# 001
I have looked into 'E7' ... not enough permittions put i have all permittions to write in the needed folder.
Any ideas?
Jens

Are you using spanning?
Normally PKZIP labels the media it uses as it progresses.
