QueryPerformanceFrequency (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
This function retrieves the frequency of the high-resolution performance counter if one is provided by the OEM.
Syntax
BOOL QueryPerformanceFrequency(
LARGE_INTEGER* lpFrequency
);
Parameters
lpFrequency
[out] Pointer to a variable that the function sets, in counts per second, to the current performance-counter frequency.If the installed hardware does not support a high-resolution performance counter, the value passed back through this pointer can be zero.
Return Value
TRUE indicates that a performance frequency value was successfully filled in. FALSE indicates failure.
Remarks
If the hardware does not support a high frequency counter, QueryPerformanceFrequency will return 1000 because the API defaults to a milliseconds GetTickCount implementation.
