CLOCK_REALTIME is optional in C99, but required by POSIX: http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/time.h.html#tag_13_76 However, gnulib doesn't yet work around this deficiency: http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/gnulib.html#clock_005fgettime Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib: * This function is missing on some platforms: MacOS X 10.3, IRIX 5.3, Solaris 2.4, mingw, Interix 3.5, BeOS. > > Any idea if gnulib can be used to get around this? It might be possible, if we can come up with a portable way to get a decent substitution of reasonable time on all of those platforms. Right now, the gnulib clock-time module is GPL, and merely checks whether clock_{get,set}time are available, and if so, in what library (although since the module only consists of a single .m4 file, it should be trivial to relicense it to LGPLv2+). -- Eric Blake eblake@xxxxxxxxxx +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
