Tom,
IIRC, on HP-UX / UV9.x, when $OPTION TIME.MILLISECOND was set
* TIME() returned whole seconds, and
* SYSTEM(12) returned milliseconds, but the last three digits
were always '000' (!)
With UV10.x, when $OPTION TIME.MILLISECOND is NOT set
* TIME() returns decimal seconds (e.g. "47811.843"),
* @TIME returns whole seconds (e.g. "47811" - note the
truncation, not rounding, also TIME() is 'time now' & @TIME
is 'time this program started', which are not quite the
same thing), and
* SYSTEM(12) returns decimal seconds the same as TIME()
With UV10.x, when $OPTION TIME.MILLISECOND IS set
* TIME() returns whole seconds (e.g. "47811"),
* @TIME returns whole seconds the same as TIME(),
* SYSTEM(12) returns whole milliseconds (e.g. "47811843")
I believe the change at UV10.0 made the HP-UX platform work the
same as all the others.
So, if you want your programs to work the same on HP-UX UV10.x
as they did on UV9.x, I think you'll need to recompile
"$OPTION TIME.MILLISECOND" into all your programs.
