Measure Elapsed Time with the Convenience Timer

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.StartTiming, which starts or restarts the object's convenience timer. The ElapsedSeconds property then reports the whole number of seconds since the call.

function chilkatExample() {

    var socket = new chilkat.Socket();

    //  Start (or restart) the object's convenience timer.
    socket.StartTiming();

    //  Perform some work.  (Here the thread simply sleeps to let time pass.)
    socket.SleepMs(1500);

    //  Read the whole number of seconds elapsed since StartTiming was called.
    console.log("Elapsed seconds: " + socket.ElapsedSeconds);
