Timer functions can be used to time operations (e.g., to see how much
time has elapsed). First, you create a new timer with g_timer_new().
You can then use g_timer_start() to start timing an operation,
g_timer_stop() to stop timing an operation, and g_timer_elapsed() to
determine the elapsed time.
GTimer *g_timer_new( void );
void g_timer_destroy( GTimer *timer );
void g_timer_start( GTimer *timer );
void g_timer_stop( GTimer *timer );
void g_timer_reset( GTimer *timer );
gdouble g_timer_elapsed( GTimer *timer,
gulong *microseconds ); |
