OTTimeStampInMilliseconds
Converts the difference between two timestamp values into milliseconds.

C INTERFACE
UInt32 OTTimeStampInMilliseconds (OTTimeStamp* delta)
C++ INTERFACE
None. C++ applications use the C interface to this function.

PARAMETERS

delta
A reference to the value that you want to convert into milliseconds. You would normally get this value by calling OTSubtractTimeStamps.
function result
The value specified by the delta parameter, converted into milliseconds.

DISCUSSION
A delta value of 0xffff ffff indicates that the timestamp value has overflowed 32 bits of milliseconds.
Use the OTGetTimeStamp function to obtain the current timestamp.
Use the OTTimeStampInMicrosecondsFunction to convert a timestamp value to microseconds.
