I'm trying to understand what I'm seeing with the msec timing on win32
(cygwin). Inside the debugger, I'm seeing:
(gdb) p tm_delta
$1 = {u = {LowPart = 2434313347, HighPart = 896}, {LowPart = 2434313347,
HighPart = 896}, QuadPart = 3850725010563}
(gdb) n
180 n1 = tm_delta.HighPart;
(gdb)
181 n2 = tm_delta.LowPart;
(gdb) p n1
$4 = 895
(gdb) p n2
$2 = -1860653949
And in Vim:
:echo reltime()
[895, -162159878]
So is this a bug? Internally, the low part of the proftime_T
structure is positive, and it shows up externally as negative. I
checked, and as far as I can tell, the LowPart is a win32
LARGE_INTEGER, which is 8 bytes, which is trying to be stuffed into a
"long" which is 4 bytes. I think the right answer is a "double"
It's 64-bit integer (long long), not double.
