Pigweed's chrono module provides facilities for applications to deal with time,
|
|
leveraging many pieces of STL's the ``std::chrono`` library but with a focus
|
|
on portability for constrained embedded devices and maintaining correctness.
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
This module is under construction, not ready for use, and the documentation
|
|
is incomplete.

SystemClock facade
|
|
------------------
|
|
The ``pw::chrono::SystemClock`` is meant to serve as the clock used for time
|
|
bound operations such as thread sleeping, waiting on mutexes/semaphores, etc.
|
|
The ``SystemClock`` always uses a signed 64 bit as the underlying type for time
|
|
points and durations. This means users do not have to worry about clock overflow
|
|
risk as long as rational durations and time points as used, i.e. within a range
|
|
of ±292 years.
