Function TIElapsedTime

This function calculates the time relative to a given time value:

typedef double TISeconds; 

TISeconds TIElapsedTime(const RTKFineTime * T);

Parameters

T

Pointer to an RTKFineTime structure which must have been previously set by a call to FTReadTime.

return value

The elapsed time in seconds.

Parameter (*T) must have been set by a call to FTReadTime. TIElapsedTime subtracts an overhead value from the measured time. Thus, a construct such as:

TISeconds Result; 
RTKFineTime T; 

FTReadTime(&T); 
Result = TIElapsedTime(&T);

will yield zero or a very small value. Please note that the time returned may be negative due to caching or other time-distorting effects.
