| Ah -- it was probably for high-performance timing, yes. The Unix version gives you the actual time of day whereas the Windows version measures it according to program lifetime or something like that. That must be the offset stuff you were talking about: using an initial timestamp along with the high-performance timer, and then adding the difference of the current high-perf timer and the original high-perf timer to the original timestamp.
Actually I'm a little surprised that that gets you the kind of time drift you were talking about... oh well.
Sorry for the noise. :-) |

| I have code for a Windows version of gettimeofday that has served me well on a few projects. If it's useful to you in any way, you're welcome to it!
int gettimeofday(struct timeval* tv, struct timezone* tz)
{
static __int64 Adjustment = 0;
__int64 Now = 0;
if (!Adjustment)
{
SYSTEMTIME st = {1970,1,0,1,0,0,0};
SystemTimeToFileTime(&st, (LPFILETIME)&Adjustment);
}
GetSystemTimeAsFileTime((LPFILETIME)&Now);
Now -= Adjustment;
tv->tv_sec = (long)(Now / 10000000);
tv->tv_usec = (long)((Now / 100) - (((__int64)tv->tv_sec * 1000) * 100));
return 0;
}

| Thanks for that. I must have missed that before. I note from MSDN this comment however "Warning: this method only returns the time in resolutions of 15ms (0.015s)".
Whilst that is better than one second resolution, it isn't as good as the high-precision timers. |

| Im currently using a modified version of your chat redirecting script. I have it sorting my ic channels and my ooc channels into two seperate windows. I tried to add this plugin and I get the following
[WARNING] C:\Program Files (x86)\MUSHclient\worlds\plugins\Timestamps.xml
Line 24: Invalid '--' inside comment (Cannot load)
Being a complete newb to scripting I cannot figure this out.
Help please? | | Top |

| Near the start of the plugin is this:
Special characters for date/time etc.
-------------------------------------
Just delete the line with the hyphens in it. I must have added that without testing.
It's just a comment anyway.
I amended the original to not have that line in it. |
