dwPartialDiffMSec (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/5/2010
This global variable is used with DiffMSec to indicate the amount of time that has passed since the last time the scheduler examined the sleep queue.
DiffMSec accounts for the number of whole milliseconds that have passed, while dwPartialDiffMSec accounts for the number of timer counts not totaling one millisecond.
This variable is obsolete.
Syntax
extern DWORD dwPartialDiffMSec;
Parameters
None.
Return Value
None.
Remarks
dwPartialDiffMSec is updated in OEMIdle to account for the time between the last tick and the call to OEMIdle, as well as time that has passed while the CPU is idling.
dwPartialDiffMSec allows the system to recognize that time has passed even if it is less than one millisecond.
