Synopsis
Control the MIL timer.
Format
void MappTimer(ControlValue, TimePtr)
| long ControlValue; | Type of modification |
| double *TimePtr; | Storage location for time |
Description
This function controls the MIL timer. This is useful for benchmarking operations in a MIL application. The MIL timer resolution varies according to the hardware and operating system used.
The ControlValue parameter specifies the control to exert on the MIL timer. It can be set to one of the following:
| ControlValue | Description |
| M_TIMER_RESET | Resets a MIL timer to zero. |
| M_TIMER_READ | Reads the time (in seconds) of the MIL timer, since the last reset. |
| M_TIMER_RESOLUTION | Reads the MIL timer resolution (in seconds). |
| M_TIMER_WAIT | Wait for the specified period of time (in seconds) before returning. |
The TimerPtr parameter specifies the address of the variable in which to store the timer information produced by the M_TIMER_READ or M_TIMER_RESOLUTION controls. Set to M_NULL for other control values.
