subject: Division by time?!

On 15 Oct 98  08:52:00, George was going on about "Division by time?!"...

 GW> Hi Gerry,

 GW> You asked:

 GD> GW> Nope :-). The "time" structure is an extension to
ANSI C, it's
 GD> GW> specific to MS/PCDOS and is in reality the data structure used by INT
 GD> GW> 21 Functions 0x2C and 0x2D.

 GD> GW> The one that is standard C and holds everything is the
"tm" structure.

 GD>Which compiler are your using?  I can't find a struct called
"time"...

 GW> It's in the compiler the original poster of the question uses, Borland
 GW> C/C++ (both the DOS & OS/2 versions).

 GW> It came originally, I believe, from Microsoft, it's certainly in MS C
 GW> V5.1 & 6.0a.

 GW> It's also in Topspeed C.
 GW> I would expect Symantec (nee Zortec) C/C++ to have it.

 GW> Not available in Watcom C/C++ or IBM Visualage for C++.

 GW> btw, what compiler do you use? You didn't say.

Just upgraded today from MS Visual C++ 1.0 to 6.0.
