Converts an ASCII string to an absolute or delta time value in
    the system 64-bit time format suitable for input to the Set Timer
    ($SETIMR) or Schedule Wakeup ($SCHDWK) service.

    On Alpha and Integrity server systems, this service accepts 64-
    bit addresses.

1  –  Arguments

 timbuf

    OpenVMS usage:time_name
    type:         character-coded text string
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by 32- or 64-bit descriptor-fixed-length string
                  descriptor
    Buffer that holds the ASCII time to be converted. The timbuf
    argument specifies the 32- or 64-bit address of a character
    string descriptor pointing to the time string. The time string
    specifies the absolute or delta time to be converted by $BINTIM.

 timadr

    OpenVMS usage:date_time
    type:         quadword
    access:       write only
    mechanism:    by 32- or 64-bit reference
    Time value that $BINTIM has converted. The timadr argument is the
    32- or 64-bit address of the quadword system time, which receives
    the converted time.
