C++ named requirements: Clock (od C++11)
The Clock requirements describe a bundle consisting of a std::chrono::duration, a std::chrono::time_point,
and a function now()
to get the current time_point. The origin of the clock's time_point is referred to as the clock's epoch.
Requirements
C1
and C2
denote clock types. t1
and t2
are values returned by C1::now()
where the call returning t1
happens before the call returning t2
and
both of these calls occur before C1::time_point::max()
.
Expression | Return type | Operational semantics |
---|---|---|
C1::rep | An arithmetic type or a class emulating an arithmetic type | The representation type of C1::duration . |
C1::period | A specialization of std::ratio | The tick period of the clock in seconds. |
C1::duration | std::chrono::duration<C1::rep, C1::period> | The duration type of the clock. |
C1::time_point | std::chrono::time_point<C1> or std::chrono::time_point<C2, C1::duration> | The std::chrono::time_point type of the clock. C1 and C2 shall refer to the same epoch. |
C1::is_steady | const bool | true if t1 <= t2 is always true and the clock advances at a steady rate relative to real time (so the difference between two distinct reported times is approximately the elapsed real time between the clock updates), otherwise false |
C1::now() | C1::time_point | Returns a time_point object representing the current point in time. |
