linux - How to print current time (with milliseconds) using C++ / C++11 -


currently use code

string now() {     time_t t = time(0);     char buffer[9] = {0};      strftime(buffer, 9, "%h:%m:%s", localtime(&t));     return string(buffer); }

to format time. need add milliseconds, output has format: 16:56:12.321

you can use boost's posix time.

you can use boost::posix_time::microsec_clock::local_time() current time microseconds-resolution clock:

boost::posix_time::ptime = boost::posix_time::microsec_clock::local_time();

then can compute time offset in current day (since duration output in form <hours>:<minutes>:<seconds>.<milliseconds>, i'm assuming calculated current day offset; if not, feel free use starting point duration/time interval):

boost::posix_time::time_duration td = now.time_of_day();

then can use .hours(), .minutes(), .seconds() accessors corresponding values.
unfortunately, there doesn't seem .milliseconds() accessor, there .total_milliseconds() one; can little subtraction math remaining milliseconds formatted in string.

then can use sprintf() (or sprintf()_s if interested in non-portable vc++-only code) format fields raw char buffer, , safely wrap raw c string buffer robust convenient std::string instance.

see commented code below further details.

output in console like:

11:43:52.276

sample code:

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////  #include <stdio.h>      // sprintf()  #include <iostream>     // console output #include <string>       // std::string  #include <boost/date_time/posix_time/posix_time.hpp>   //----------------------------------------------------------------------------- // format current time (calculated offset in current day) in form: // //     "hh:mm:ss.sss" (where "sss" milliseconds) //----------------------------------------------------------------------------- std::string now_str() {     // current time clock, using microseconds resolution     const boost::posix_time::ptime =          boost::posix_time::microsec_clock::local_time();      // time offset in current day     const boost::posix_time::time_duration td = now.time_of_day();      //     // extract hours, minutes, seconds , milliseconds.     //     // since there no direct accessor ".milliseconds()",     // milliseconds computed _by difference_ between total milliseconds     // (for there accessor), , hours/minutes/seconds     // values fetched.     //     const long hours        = td.hours();     const long minutes      = td.minutes();     const long seconds      = td.seconds();     const long milliseconds = td.total_milliseconds() -                               ((hours * 3600 + minutes * 60 + seconds) * 1000);      //     // format this:     //     //      hh:mm:ss.sss     //     // e.g. 02:15:40:321     //     //      ^          ^     //      |          |     //      123456789*12     //      ---------10-     --> 12 chars + \0 --> 13 chars should suffice     //       //      char buf[40];     sprintf(buf, "%02ld:%02ld:%02ld.%03ld",          hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds);      return buf; }  int main() {     std::cout << now_str() << '\n';     }  ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Why does Ruby on Rails generate add a blank line to the end of a file? -

running rails generate controller foo home results in: class foocontroller < application controller def home end end (there's nothing on line in actual file, blank line) is there purpose blank line? it's common use newline indicate end of line, last line. many editors (like vi, use) add in newline silently. consensus text files (especially in unix world) should end in newline, , there have been problems historically if wasn't present. why should text files end newline? the tool used count lines in file "wc" counts newlines in file, without trailing newline show 3 instead of 4. it improves readability of templates used in generator. consider: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/railties/lib/rails/generators/rails/controller/templates/controller.rb to remove trailing newline, template have last line of: end<% end -%> instead of: end <% end -%> that seems less readable me. the discussion below refers
