RE: [Quickfix-developers] Miliseconds in UTC Time

[Daniel M. <Dan...@ma...>]

If I search the entire quickfix source base, strptime() is only used 7
times,
and only 4 of the contain formatting the seconds field.  I could just
modify the buffer
after the call to strptime() to add the ".sss" onto the end if needed
and be done with it.

The same goes for strftime().

Optionally, since the source code for these two functions is part of the
quickfix source
any way, I could modify these directly, the usage clause says we can use
it "with or without modification".

	This is not Stanard C, but I think its relatively well
	supported on most platforms.  The Solaris and Linux boxes I
	have access to all support it.

	Once that code was de-Windows-ed, it wouldn't be too bad.  My
	eyes glaze over as soon as I start seeing szVariableName.
