A couple of days ago, when I couldn't remember the kernel equivalent of the gettimeofday function, I searched the Apple Mailing Lists and immediately found the answer (clock_get_calendar_value which lead me to kern/clock.h and the currently supported function clock_get_calendar_microtime). The signature of the reply to the original poster's question caught my eye. It was mine. I had provided the answer exactly two years ago today. It's like something out of a Sci-Fi movie... or maybe just good karma. ]]> http://sugarmaplesoftware.com/26/helping-myself/feed/ 0 http://sugarmaplesoftware.com/24/kernel-logging/ http://sugarmaplesoftware.com/24/kernel-logging/#comments Thu, 21 Dec 2006 19:47:46 +0000 geoff http://sugarmaplesoftware.com/24/kernel-logging/ printf to log messages.
