Struct sgx_tstd::time::Instant

pub struct Instant(_);

A measurement of a monotonically nondecreasing clock. Opaque and useful only with Duration.

Instants are always guaranteed to be no less than any previously measured instant when created, and are often useful for tasks such as measuring benchmarks or timing how long an operation takes.

Note, however, that instants are not guaranteed to be steady. In other words, each tick of the underlying clock may not be the same length (e.g. some seconds may be longer than others). An instant may jump forwards or experience time dilation (slow down or speed up), but it will never go backwards.

Instants are opaque types that can only be compared to one another. There is no method to get "the number of seconds" from an instant. Instead, it only allows measuring the duration between two instants (or comparing two instants).

The size of an Instant struct may vary depending on the target operating system.

Methods

impl Instant

pub fn duration_since(&self, earlier: Instant) -> Duration

Returns the amount of time elapsed from another instant to this one.

Panics

This function will panic if earlier is later than self.

Trait Implementations

impl Copy for Instant

impl Add<Duration> for Instant

type Output = Instant

The resulting type after applying the + operator.

fn add(self, other: Duration) -> Instant

Performs the + operation.

impl AddAssign<Duration> for Instant

fn add_assign(&mut self, other: Duration)

Performs the += operation.

impl Sub<Duration> for Instant

type Output = Instant

impl InstantEx for Instant

fn now() -> Instant

Returns an instant corresponding to "now".

fn elapsed(&self) -> Duration

Panics

This function may panic if the current time is earlier than this instant, which is something that can happen if an Instant is produced synthetically.
