The Timestamp Data Type
The timestamp data type is a 64-bit value that contains an Open Transport timestamp. The timestamp has unspecified units; you must use one of the timestamp manipulation functions described in "Timestamp Utility Functions" to convert the timestamp to known quantities. The timestamp data type is defined by the OTTimeStamp data type.
typedef UnsignedWide OTTimeStamp;
WARNING
The OTTimeStamp value is different in 68000-code and PowerPC code, so you cannot mix timestamp values obtained from emulated code with values obtained from PowerPC native code.
