The following function is not compiling:

double GetCurTime()
{
    LARGE_INTEGER CounterFreq;
    QueryPerformanceFrequency(&CounterFreq);

    LARGE_INTEGER Counter;
    QueryPerformanceCounter(&Counter);
    return (double)Counter.QuadPart / (double)CounterFreq.QuadPart;
}

The C the compiler I am using does not recognize LARGE_INTEGER and QueryPerformanceFrequency.

If anyone recognizes these items, can you please suggest where I might find them?
Perhaps they are in a header file, or a library that I do not currently have.

Include the <time.h> library and use the time_t time(time_t *timer); function.

Also, if you want to use QueryPerformanceCounter, then you need to include Winbase.h (and Windows.h).
