Hi, The sys_time variable is the basic timekeeper for BrickOS. It is a 32-bit integer that is incremented every millisecond by the kernel. In older versions of the kernel you could access the variable directly, however, in 0.2.6.10 and later you (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| | TIME STAMP for a LNP distributed robot

Hi, I'd like to make a basic implementation of a time stamp on a distributed schame, using Lamport's algorithm. It states basically that when a node receives a message, it get the time stamp that's contained on it, and compares with it's own, if the (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi Bernhard, Apparently the kernel is getting too big! By defining CONF_DSENSOR_MUX, enough extra code was generated to make the kernel exceed 12K.
