typedef int64_t rcutils_time_point_value_t |

A duration of time, measured in nanoseconds.
rcutils_ret_t rcutils_system_time_now | ( | rcutils_time_point_value_t * | now | ) |
This function returns the time from a system clock. The closest equivalent would be to std::chrono::system_clock::now();
The resolution (e.g. nanoseconds vs microseconds) is not guaranteed.
The now argument must point to an allocated rcutils_time_point_value_t object, as the result is copied into this variable.

Retrieve the current time as a rcutils_time_point_value_t object.
This function returns the time from a monotonically increasing clock. The closest equivalent would be to std::chrono::steady_clock::now();
The resolution (e.g. nanoseconds vs microseconds) is not guaranteed.
The now argument must point to an allocated rcutils_time_point_value_t object, as the result is copied into this variable.

char * | str, | ||
size_t | str_size | ||
) |
Return a time point as nanoseconds in a string.
The number is always fixed width, with left padding zeros up to the maximum number of digits the time point can represent. Right now that is 19 digits (so 19 characters) for a signed 64-bit integer. Negative values will have a leading -
, so they will be one character longer than the positive values.
The recommended minimum size of the input string is 32 characters, but 21 ( or -
for sign, 19 digits, null terminator) should be sufficiently large for both positive and negative values. If the given string is not large enough, the result will be truncated. If you need a string with variable width, using snprintf()
directly is recommended.

char * | str, | ||
size_t | str_size | ||
) |
Return a time point as floating point seconds in a string.
The number is always fixed width, with left padding zeros up to the maximum number of digits for the mantissa that the time point can represent and a characteristic (fractional-part) with a fixed width of 9 digits. Right now that means the mantissa is always 10 digits to add up to 19 total for the signed 64-bit time point type. Negative values will have a leading -
, so they will be one character longer then positive values.
The recommended minimum size of the input string is 32 characters, but 22 ( or -
for sign, 19 digits, decimal point, null terminator) should be sufficient for now. If the given string is not large enough, the result will be truncated.
