TimeVal

TimeVal

Object Hierarchy:

Description:

public struct TimeVal

Represents a precise time, with seconds and microseconds.

Similar to the struct timeval returned by the gettimeofday UNIX system call.

GLib is attempting to unify around the use of 64bit integers to represent microsecond-precision time. As such, this type will be removed from a future version of GLib.

Namespace: GLib

Package: glib-2.0
