Scripts: sTimeToVariables

New comment
 

sTimeToVariables:

The script converts the time, represented as datetime variable into the year, month, day, hour, minutes and seconds.

It doen't uses MQL5 functions!

yours quicker?
 

Waste of time !

No, if it's quicker...
 

TimeToStruct 4 times quicker then sTimeToVariable

Waste of time ! 

Well, at least it shows how to extract time components. 

Hi VincentX,

Nice code using kernel32's QueryPerformanceCounter, and I thanks for it.

 

 

 

onewithzachy: Would you repost the code using SRC butt-on

Thanx for help!

 
onewithzachy:

Hi VincentX,

What help ???

;)

 

The SRC button...

I posted source first time.
