Obtains the current VBL timer values.

int32 GetVBLTime (Item ioreq, uint32 *hiorder, uint32 *loworder)

This function obtains the current value of the system VBL timer and stores the results at *hiorder and *loworder. Either pointer can be NULL. The loworder part of the VBL timer is generally of most interest, it doesn't roll over into the high-order part until roughly 800 days of continuous running without a reboot.

• ioreq IOReq item obtained from GetTimerIOReq(), or zero to have an IOReq dynamically created/deleted during the call.

• hiorder Pointer to a variable into which the high-order portion of the VBL time is stored.

• loworder Pointer to a variable into which the low-order portion of the VBL time is stored.

The low-order portion of the VBL time (a positive value), or a negative error code.
