_GetTime()

[James]

Hi all,

While I was just trying to achieve better Sleep() results as ludocus pointed out the sleep time is incorrect, I found timeGetTime():

Func _GetTime()
    $Dll = DllCall("WinMM.dll", "long", "timeGetTime")
    Return $Dll[0]
EndFunc

Yeah, it's nothing big nor majorly important however some system administrators might find it useful.

Does it display the CPU-Time Idle time displayed in the taskmanager.. ?

[James]

No, this function returns the time that windows has been on for since startup time (in milliseconds)

Could be useful.

Thanks monoceres.

I'm probably not the only person to do something like this.

I had to see if it worked.

Milliseconds are not my forte.

MsgBox(0,"", HrsDec2HMS(_GetTime()/(1000*3600)))
; http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=74145&view=findpost&p=539247
Func _GetTime()
    $Dll = DllCall("WinMM.dll", "long", "timeGetTime")
    Return $Dll[0]
EndFunc

Func HrsDec2HMS($DecHrs)
    Local $hr, $min, $Sec
    $hr = int($DecHrs)
    $min = Int(($DecHrs - $hr)*60)
    $sec = ($DecHrs*3600) -(($hr*3600)+($min*60))       
    Return   $hr & "hr " & $min & "min " & Round($sec,3) & "sec"
EndFunc

The result I got seems about right.

Hi Malkey, I was actually just adding to it now to convert it.
