I'm trying to use struct timespec, and I want to initialize it to the current date (sec & nanosec). Is there a function call that I can call that will do so, or do I have to roll my own? Note that I'm looking for an API that will fill in a timespec that I pass in, not create a new one on the heap.

You can wrap your own using gettimeofday() which does what you want but using a timeval instead of a timespec.

Yeah, that is what I'm doing now; I was hoping there was a cleaner way, something along the lines of: ERROR_CODE initWithCurrentDate(&myTimeSpec); If there isn't, then such is life; I'll continue using what gettimeofday().
