Getting time

[System Dude_1]

Could anyone please advice on how to get the current current date/month/year hour/minute/second/millisecond in HP-UX

#man date

know that but please read my question properly that I need to get up to milisecond as well

[John Palmer]

man gettimeofday

You'll either have to write a simple C program or maybe use perl.

Hi,

Have a look at:

http://search.cpan.org/author/JHI/perl-5.8.0/ext/Time/HiRes/HiRes.pm

this will return Epoch seconds/milliseconds.

Dude:

man gettimeofday

It says it returns time expressed in seconds and microseconds since midnight January 1, 1970.

Looks like you need a 'C' call. Dat only returns the date in seconds.
