What is the difference between get_timing_path and report_timing

[englishdogg]

I need some understanding on the difference between get_timing_path and report timing

What is the difference and when is which command used in such a way that the other is useless. I ahve always been using report timing and has never been a problem.

Any thoughts?

Generally get_timing_path is used for writing scripts.
For example, if you want to get name of endpoints of all violating paths...

report_timing can be used as a general purpose command.
