2 * vlc_tick.h: high resolution time management functions
3 *****************************************************************************
4 * This header provides portable high precision time management functions,
5 * which should be the only ones used in other segments of the program, since
6 * functions like gettimeofday() and ftime() are not always supported.
7 * Most functions are declared as inline or as macros since they are only
8 * interfaces to system calls and have to be called frequently.
9 * 'm' stands for 'micro', since maximum resolution is the microsecond.
10 * Functions prototyped are implemented in interface/mtime.c.

35 * High precision date or time interval
37 * Store a high precision date or time interval. The maximum precision is the
38 * microsecond, and a 64 bits integer is used to avoid overflows (maximum
39 * time interval is then 292271 years, which should be long enough for any
40 * video). Dates are stored as microseconds since a common date (usually the
41 * epoch). Note that date and time intervals can be manipulated using regular
42 * arithmetic operators, and that no special functions are required.
