[Mingw-users] times() missing?

[Stefan B. <sb...@sb...>]

Under GNU/Linux, there is sys/times.h which contains this struct ...

/* Structure describing CPU time used by a process and its children.  */
struct tms
  {
    clock_t tms_utime;          /* User CPU time.  */
    clock_t tms_stime;          /* System CPU time.  */

    clock_t tms_cutime;         /* User CPU time of dead children.  */
    clock_t tms_cstime;         /* System CPU time of dead children.  */
  };

... and this function:

/* Store the CPU time used by this process and all its
   dead children (and their dead children) in BUFFER.
   Return the elapsed real time, or (clock_t) -1 for errors.
   All times are in CLK_TCKths of a second.  */
extern clock_t times (struct tms *__buffer) __THROW;

The MinGW32 cross-compiler from GNU/Linux to Windows (version 3.4.2)
does not contain this function.

Is there an equivalent? Or another portable function that does serve
the same purpose?
