Look at the package Ada.Calendar documented in ARM 9.6. This provides a
function called "Clock" and all of the necessary operations for examining
the time when it gives you back an object of type "Time".

If this doesn't do what you want, post again and maybe we can help.

Do you want the "wall clock" time ? Look at the Ada.Calendar
package. There is a small example in Time_Log.adb, paqs.zip,
URL below.

HTH!
