ClockStart - method of the Pm object
Description:
Starting the time clock.
Syntax:
Double ClockStart([Boolean bGlobal])
Parameters:
| bGlobal | [optional] (Boolean) timing type
true (default) - Global timing. Thus it is possible to perform only one timing at the given time.
false - Local timing. Thus it is possible to perform even more timings at a time. |
|---|
Note:
The method serves to starting the time clock. In case of local timing it is necessary to store the value returned when calling the method and to pass the stored value as a parameter in the subsequent calling of the
ClockStop method. The
ClockStop method serves to stopping the time clock. By the
ClockStart and
ClockStop methods it is possible to determine the action time with the precision of microseconds. In case of global timing it dumps the measured time into the
Debug item of the INFO system.
This method is functional also in
Macro expression $.expr and in the
onDraw event of the
PmgCanvas object.
This method
is not functional in
Web panels.
