recording simulation time

milind0y

Hi,

    I want to record the time taken by the simulation run and write it to an file using my Ocean script. How can I find out the time taken by the simulation run?

 

Thanks,

Milind

    Hi Milind,

    The simulation time will be shown in the output log, so you could parse that, but if you want something within the OCEAN script you could check the time before the run() command and compare it to the time after the command is executed.  Something like:

     

    timeFile=outfile("./simTime.txt")

    startTime=getCurrentTime()

    run()

    endTime=getCurrentTime()

    fprintf(timeFile "The run() command took %d seconds." compareTime(endTime  startTime))

    close(timeFile)

     

    Regards,

    TOM
