[ros-kernel] RosGetTimeFormat and GetTimeFormatA

[Nate DeSimone]

While VB offers the ability to write programs very quick, and easily, it 
doesn't have some of the really nice features found in C, for example 
pointers.  Last time I checked VB does dynamic memory using arrays that 
have to be resized, why can't it just have a something like a vector 
class from the C++ Standard Libary?  Also it would be nice if NULL 
didn't have to be written as &H0 (or something like that, can't remember 
exactly.)
