[PATCH 1/3] system_data_types.7: time_t: Add Versions note

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Prior to POSIX.1-2008, POSIX allowed time_t to be a real-floating type.

Hi Michael,

I found this thing when writing about clock_t.

BTW, I'm not sure about the .PP before the paragraph
(it feels like "Versions" is too far away from it),
but it's unrelated to the previous Versions note, so I kept it.

Regards,

Alex
