    Man, I'm scratching my head on this one -
    I'm trying to get a simple timer function running, and
    the standard API clock() is not working.

    I've tried this on 2 different Linux boxes, RH9 and FC2

    Here's the code

    #include <iostream>
    #include <time.h>

    int main(int argc,char *argv[]){

            double start, end;

            char myin;

            start = clock();
            std::cout << "Press any key, then enter" << std::endl;
            std::cin >> myin;
            end = clock();
            std::cout << "start = " << start << " end = " << end << std::endl;
            
    return 0;
    }

    I just get start = 0 end = 0

    wierd.

    TIA,
    replies to mailing list only, por favor.

    Don
