SyncTime Simulink function

Cross platform, for simulation and embedding

Produces epoch based timestamp and syncs the model to a given period

Usage

Specify dt as the period: if dt=0 just measure time otherwise sleeps a variable time to align with the dt

Internals

• Linux: clock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME, &spec);
• OSX: gettimeofday(&TV, NULL);
• Windows: GetSystemTimeAsFileTime base + GetTickCount or QueryPerformanceCounter

TODO

Make Windows use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime always if needed
