Re: [Dev-C++] Sleep function not working properly

The sleep function should count seconds. That is the standard.
The delay function is used to wait milli-seconds.

It doesn't count seconds, it counts milliseconds (?).  1000 = 1 second :)

Hello,

I have just started using Dev-C++ and notice that when I call the sleep
function
in my programs, it does not halt execution for the given amount of seconds.
I have experimented with very large timeframes (eg. 2000 seconds) and sleep
starts to work. But 2000 seconds causes a wait of about 2 seconds.
I am doing DOS console programs in C and then running them under Windows 95.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Jonathan
