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.

<?php

$socket = new COM("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.
print 'Elapsed seconds: ' . $socket->ElapsedSeconds . "\n";
