Full time, including milliseconds

[cl8855]

Is there any way to get the current time (including milliseconds) in cold fusion? Doesn't look like it in the date/time functions, but someone must be doing this.

thanks

getTickCount() will get the milliseconds it takes to do a process.

<cfset start = GetTickCount()>
do some stuff
<cfset end = getTickCount()>

<cfoutput>It took #evaluate(start-end)# milliseconds to do that</cfoutput>

do you really need to use evaluate to do simple math??

I could be wrong here... but i believe mx is the first version where you could output direct evaluations.

<cfoutput>#start - end#</cfoutput><!--- MX compatible (I think) --->
<cfoutput>#evaluate(start-end)#</cfoutput> <!--- would work for any version (I think) --->

or

<cfset start = 5>
<cfset end = 1>
<cfset finish = start - end>
<cfoutput>#finish#</cfoutput>

Like i said I could be wrong. I remember reading about something like that new to mx.

<cfset start = 5>
<cfset end = 1>
<cfset finish = start - end>
<cfoutput>#finish#</cfoutput>

thats good in 5 or mx
