Dear friends,

I used  function Cplex.getCplexTime() to get running time from CPLEX 12.9.
My model takes 7s23 to run. However, the value of this function is 268462.234.

I also used the code as below and the value is 0. How can I get right value: 7s23. 
Thank you very much. 

float temp;
execute{
var before = new Date();
temp = before.getTime();
}
// solve the model
execute{
var after = new Date();
writeln("solving time ~= ",after.getTime()-temp);
}

As you can read in the documentation, function getCplexTime() returns a time stamp, not the elapsed time. So you have to do the same thing as with Date in your code: safe the starting time stamp and later subtract that from the ending time stamp.

I don't know why your code with Data does not work. It works fine here.
