for the shell, just use time: time somecommand will gve to you the time (user time and total time, that is total - syscalls) when the program finishes. Something similar, for use in C++ code, look how Measure class is implemented: http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/zypp/trunk/libzypp/zypp/base/Measure.h http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/zypp/trunk/libzypp/zypp/base/Measure.cc You can see the docs in the header file itself.

In my case, I need to start the counter on the host (PC) and in parallel to launch some process on a target (switch). On 7/6/07, Duncan Mac-Vicar Prett <dmacvicar@suse.de> wrote:

I regularly use C/C++ programs for this. The starting point is #include<sys/resource.h> #include<sys/time.h> and the getrusage functions.

This is the approach I have chosen to create a simple bash script which acts as a counter. http://bashscripts.org/viewtopic.php?t=401 On 7/9/07, Theo v. Werkhoven <theo@ferrets4me.xs4all.nl> wrote:

Another way would be to create one file at the start time and another at the end time, then calculate the differences in the creation times, e.g., touch startfile (time marches on) touch finishfile #output files' mod times in seconds since Epoch's begin; pipe to bc echo $(stat -c %Y finishfile)-$(stat -c %Y startfile) | bc #clean up rm startfile finishfile The above could go into a script with prompts or you could play around with glade, a nifty GUI front-end builder. Building GUI front-ends isn't that tough on Tk either. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

That's what the damned time command is for, you twit. Compared to using the time command, that's just a f***ing stupid waste of resources, kernal I/O, and it's problematic to boot (if the computer is rebooted during the job, then the start file is left to litter the filesystem. With apologies to South Park: "dubbmb-dumb-dumb-dumb-dummb-dummb-dummb") Just because you "can" do something doesn't mean it's advisable, or even worth considering for more than, oh, 1/10th of a second. Linux is not Windows, so kindly quit offering solutions which are most appropriate for that horrific abortion of an O/S.

I've been programming since 1980. I'm more than familiar with more than half a dozen distinct operating sytems (and that's counting ALL of Linux and Unix as ONE O/S).

people, does not give an understandable solution to the questioner and makes you look bad. Furthermore you are the very first person that I have just scripted to ignore.

He got a question and i think it is always ok to ask any question regarding openSuSE. So my question again: Why?
