Member Enumeration Documentation

enum ACE_System_Time::Sync_Mode
 

Enumeration types to specify mode of synchronization with master clock. Jump will set local system time directly (thus possibly producing time gaps or ambiguous local system times. Adjust will smoothly slow down or speed up the local system clock to reach the system time of the master clock.

Enumeration values:
Jump 
Adjust 


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ACE_System_Time::ACE_System_Time const ACE_TCHAR poolname = 0  ) 
 

Default constructor.

ACE_System_Time::~ACE_System_Time void   ) 
 

Default destructor.


Member Function Documentation

int ACE_System_Time::get_local_system_time ACE_Time_Value time_out  )  [static]
 

Get the local system time, i.e., the value returned by <ACE_OS::time>.

int ACE_System_Time::get_local_system_time ACE_UINT32 &  time_out  )  [static]
 

Get the local system time, i.e., the value returned by <ACE_OS::time>.

int ACE_System_Time::get_master_system_time ACE_Time_Value time_out  ) 
 

Get the system time of the central time server.

int ACE_System_Time::get_master_system_time ACE_UINT32 &  time_out  ) 
 

Get the system time of the central time server.
