Problem w/ Timeing

Posted by Faisal [send private reply] at April 26, 2002, 09:15:46 PM

Is there a way in C++ to put time in your program while its running? I want to be able to have variables that should realy on time, to change while the game is going.

Like, time while other things are happening

when the process starts, get the current time. When the pocess finishes, get the current time. t2 - t1 = total time to complete process. Is this what you need?

Most compilers have thorough documentation (for the language as well as the compiler)
