The dateTimeLib.currentTime() system function reads the system clock and returns a TIME value that represents the current time.
dateTimeLib.currentTime( )
returns (result TIME)
In the following example, assume a strLib.defaultTimeFormat of "h:mm a", a null strLib.defaultTimestampFormat, and a time of 13:01:40:
myTime1 STRING = currentTime();
writeStdOut(myTime1);
myTime2 TIMESTAMP("HHmmss") = currentTime();
writeStdOut(myTime2);
writeStdOut(currentTime());
