[Action Plugin] NTPC Action Plugin (NTP Timeserver Client)

[Imagine Programming]

Works like a charm, brother. Great stuff! If you're looking for a simple NTP/NTS solution, this is it.

Good to hear! ^^ The next (and for now final) feature I will implement is a synchronized clock from within the plugin. You can set it to synchronize e.g. every 15 minutes and simply fetch the time that is known at the moment.

Thanks King!

You're welcome Protocol!

Awesome,

Thank you Imagine. I appreciate your effort! This should come in handy across the board!

Indeed, no UPX or anything special. Avast is just crying about the network connections being made to time servers! I'll run a few scans and check if I can get a false-positive sent in to them.

*edit* - Files have been sent in to Avast, hopefully they'll unmark it soon

I just thought I would let you know, I can't even download it without disabling Avast as it might be a good AV but it never listens to my safe list ever so now its just blocking the connection when I click download on that one lol

I know IP's stuff is safe and trust it

not to jump in over IP, however if it helps,

the lmd file is Not upx'd, the manifest is not Vista and later compatible (regarding 'asinvoker' etc. ) fwiw.
(avast issues when downloaded or when run, or using a particular protocol (avast fussy with port stuff) ??)

Update v1.2.0.0
Another update, in this one I added support for both the Time protocol (port 37) and the NTP protocol (port 123).
Both methods have a function that can be called exactly the same way, and they both produce the same result format.

This last download for some reason avast complains core and update one both download fine only update two is a problem, do you have upx compression ?

Update v1.1.0.0
A very simple update that also takes daylight savings into account in the biased result. The unbiased table contains UTC and the biased table contains the localized time with time zone offset correction + daylight savings correction.

Hi all!

Here's a quick release for a small plugin I made because I noticed a thread about timesync.

Imagine NTPC Action Plugin is a very simple and tiny plugin that allows an AMS Lua developer to obtain accurate and up-to-date time information from within AMS periodically.

This plugin allows easy access to timeservers running on port 37, most NTP servers have this service up and running. The reason why it supports timeserver and not the NTP port 123 service, is so that the application can also retrieve the time from MS Windows 2003 and lower servers.

Functions

NTPC.GetTimezoneName
NTPC.GetTimezoneBias
NTPC.RetrieveNTPTime
