#define PROFILE_BLOCK(pbn) profiler _pfinstance(pbn)

用法如下:

这在范围上类似于RAII

time(NULL)函数调用将返回自epoc: 1970年1月1日以来经过的秒数。也许你要做的是取两个时间戳的差值:

size_t start = time(NULL);
doSomthing();
doSomthingLong();

printf ("**MyProgram::time elapsed= %lds\n", time(NULL) - start);

它们是一样的，因为doSomething函数发生得比计时器的粒度快。试一试:

printf ("**MyProgram::before time= %ld\n", time(NULL));

for(i = 0; i < 1000; ++i) {
    doSomthing();
    doSomthingLong();
}

printf ("**MyProgram::after time= %ld\n", time(NULL));

您可以使用GetTickCount()来获取自系统启动以来所经过的毫秒数。

long int before = GetTickCount();

// Perform time-consuming operation

long int after = GetTickCount();
