timer in C++

[Karthik Ram]

I am using alarm() to time a process. Is there something with which i can measure by milliseconds ? The alarm() in C++ allows only seconds and not anything lesser than that. I did try ftime() and time(),But i need something to timeout automatically. I am using RH linux and g++ 3.2 Thanks
