Re: Real Time IO routines

Something seems to be wrong though. In my program I am basiclly
doing:

start := clock;
--I run my algorithm here
finish := clock;
ada.Text_IO.put_line("time = " & duration'image(to_duration(finish -
start)));

the output is always time = 0.000000000. I know it had to take some
time because it takes about 10 seconds for the program to reach that
point in the code. Overflow maybe?- Hide quoted text -


In that case use the conversion as shown bellow.

Put_Line (Duration'Image (To_Duration (finish - start)));

Check the Ada.Real_Time package specification you will see all
operators / operations used above.
