OEMEthGetSecs (Compact 2013)

10/16/2014

This function returns the number of seconds that have passed since a certain fixed time.

Syntax

DWORD OEMEthGetSecs (void); 

Parameters

None.

Return Value

Count of seconds that have passed since a certain fixed time.

Remarks

This function handles time-outs while in polling mode. The origin of the count is unimportant as long as the count is incremental.

Do not make system calls from within the OEMEth* functions. Also, avoid calling OAL functions that might call system functions.

For example, if the OEMGetRealTime function calls the FileTimeToSystemTime function, OEMEthGetSecs should not call OEMGetRealTime.
