Class template microsec_clock

boost::date_time::microsec_clock —

A clock providing microsecond level resolution.

Synopsis

template<typename time_type> 
class microsec_clock {
public:
  // types
  typedef time_type::date_type          date_type;             
  typedef time_type::time_duration_type time_duration_type;    
  typedef time_duration_type::rep_type  resolution_traits_type;

  // public static functions
  time_type local_time() ;

  // private static functions
  time_type create_time(timeval *) ;
  time_type local_time() ;
  time_type create_time(FILETIME &) ;
};

Description

A high precision clock that measures the local time at a resolution up to microseconds and adjusts to the resolution of the time system. For example, for the a library configuration with nano second resolution, the last 3 places of the fractional seconds will always be 000 since there are 1000 nano-seconds in a micro second.

`microsec_clock` public static functions

```
time_type local_time() ;
```
Return the local time based on computer clock settings.

`microsec_clock` private static functions

```
time_type create_time(timeval * tv) ;
```
```
time_type local_time() ;
```
Return the local time based on computer clock settings.
```
time_type create_time(FILETIME & ft) ;
```
