How to access the fields of a timeval structure

Question

I\'m trying to print the values in a struct timeval variable as follows:

int main()  
{  

    struct timeval *cur;  
    do_gettimeofday(cur);          


        

Answer 1

The variable cur is a pointer of type timeval. You need to have a timeval variable and pass it's address to the function. Something like:

struct timeval cur;
do_gettimeofday(&cur);

You also need

#include

which has the definition of the struct timeval and declaration of the function do_gettimeofday.

Alternatively you can use the gettimeofday function from sys/time.h.
