[ushacy]

I am writing a code using multimedia timer, where i have to include the library winmm.h with out that it will not work. But i am not getting how to include this in my c project. is it possible to link to that library through c project please any one help me in this. i stuck up with this.
my code is here

:

#include<sys/time.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<time.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<windows.h>
#include <mmsystem.h>
 
 
 
void run()
{
      static long int i= 0;
      i++;
      time_t t;
      time(&t);
      printf("S.No %ld Date and Time is: %s\n",i, ctime(&t));
}
int main()
{
 
      int timeinterval = 10;
      timeBeginPeriod(1);
      long cur = 0;
      long last = timeGetTime();
 
            while(1)
            {
                  cur = timeGetTime();
                  if ((cur - last) >= timeinterval)
                  {
                        run();
 
                        last = cur;
                        _sleep(5);
                  }
            }
          return 0;
 
}

If you are trying to use external code, you need to include the library header in your code (i.e. #include "winmm.h"), which may require you to add "include" paths to Eclipse for the place where that file lies if they're not already set up.

You also need to link against any library objects that contain the ACTUAL code for those functions. The file at Win32 Library by Function Name will help you find out what DLL they are in and thus what .def / .a / .o you need to add to your linker objects in the Eclipse project options (if any - I don't think you're loading DLL's dynamically here). That will also involve making sure Eclipse is looking in the right paths under Linker options for those files.

That said, your code is using _sleep which I think is deprecated (according to my compiler) so it may not even exist on modern Windows systems anyway.
