|
|
|
|
Use SNTP to get the current time from the host.
|
|
|
|
Overview
|
|
********
|
|
|
|
This sample is a simple SNTP client showing how to retrieve the current
|
|
time in seconds since 1st January 1970.
|
|
|
|
This demo assumes that the platform of choice has networking support,
|
|
some adjustments to the configuration may be needed. It also assumes
|
|
SNTP server is running on the host.
|
|
|
|
Building and Running
|
|
********************
|
|
|
|
When the application runs, it issues an SNTP request to the host and waits
|
|
for a response. When the response is received, the current epoch time, in
|
|
seconds, as well as the status code of the response (0 on success), is
|
|
printed.
|
|
|
|
See the `net-tools`_ project for more details.
|
|
|
|
This sample can be built and executed on QEMU or native_sim board as
|
|
described in :ref:`networking_with_qemu`.
