Detailed Description

COS Time Service basic types.

The standard CORBA Time Service defines a number of data structures to manipulate and express time. Over time these data structures have found their way into core components of CORBA, such as CORBA Messaging, RT CORBA, etc.

Typedef Documentation

To express an error estimate for time.

typedef short TimeBase::TdfT

Minutes of displacement from the Greenwich time.

typedef unsigned long long TimeBase::TimeT

Time in TimeT is expressed in units of 100 nano seconds.

In other words each TimeT is 10^-7 seconds. When used for absolute time 0 is to October 15, 1582. Please read the spec for further details.
