Posted on 4 June 202120 August 2021 by Marco Saad

This is a simple job to count elapsed time

static void timeConsumedFcn(Args _args)
{
   FromTime    startTime;
   int seconds = 5;
   int     i;
   str   elapsed;
   startTime = timeNow();
   i = sleep(seconds*1000);  
   elapsed = timeConsumed(startTime, timeNow());
   info(strFmt("Time elapsed: %1", elapsed));
}
