I was just playing around with something for some reason and I needed to get the current time in milliseconds so I could get a floating point frame time, time.h/time() gives me seconds, were is the function for milliseconds, I have tryed google and it hasn't provided anything usful and I need to get to sleep.

that should have been OT, I do so need sleep

To be honest Bob, my memory of STL is a little hazy. However, if memory serves, the time class may not be helpful, as all it measures time in seconds. As for more general programming help, I'm afraid I'm not of much use.

If it only needs to work in Windows, I believe the easiest way is to use timeGetTime(), look it up from MSDN

clock() - milliseconds since beginning of this thread

only really usefull for time differences that need high accuracy

Kazan, clock() returns the tick count. You'd have to multiply with 1000/CLK_TCK to get milliseconds.

GetTickCount() is a standard windows API function that returns the number of milliseconds since the computer has been turned on
