## NAME

log4tango::TimeStamp

## SYNOPSIS

`#include <TimeStamp.hh>`

### Public Member Functions

**TimeStamp** ()\
 Constructs a **TimeStamp** representing 'now'.  **TimeStamp** (const **TimeStamp** &t)\
 Copy Constructor.  **TimeStamp** (unsigned int seconds, unsigned int microseconds=0)\
 Constructs a **TimeStamp** representing the given offset since the epoch ( 00:00:00 1970/1/1 UTC).  int **get\_seconds** (void) const\
 Returns the 'seconds' part of the **TimeStamp**.  int **get\_milliseconds** (void) const\
 Returns the 'subseconds' part of the **TimeStamp** in milliseconds, **get\_milliseconds()** == **get\_microseconds()** / 1000.  int **get\_microseconds** (void) const\
 Returns the subsecond part of the **TimeStamp** in microseconds.  void **operator=** (const **TimeStamp** &t)\
 Operator=.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

### log4tango::TimeStamp::TimeStamp ()

Constructs a **TimeStamp** representing 'now'.

### log4tango::TimeStamp::TimeStamp (const TimeStamp & t)` [inline]`

Copy Constructor.

### log4tango::TimeStamp::TimeStamp (unsigned int seconds, unsigned int microseconds = `0`)` [inline]`

Constructs a **TimeStamp** representing the given offset since the epoch ( 00:00:00 1970/1/1 UTC).

## Member Function Documentation

### int log4tango::TimeStamp::get\_microseconds (void) const` [inline]`

Returns the subsecond part of the **TimeStamp** in microseconds. The actual precision of this value depends on the platform and may be in the order of milliseconds rather than microseconds.

### int log4tango::TimeStamp::get\_milliseconds (void) const` [inline]`

Returns the 'subseconds' part of the **TimeStamp** in milliseconds, **get\_milliseconds()** == **get\_microseconds()** / 1000.

### int log4tango::TimeStamp::get\_seconds (void) const` [inline]`

Returns the 'seconds' part of the **TimeStamp**.

### static const TimeStamp & log4tango::TimeStamp::get\_start\_time (void)` [inline]`, ` [static]`

Returns a **TimeStamp** representing the time at which the application started.

### void log4tango::TimeStamp::operator= (const TimeStamp & t)` [inline]`

Operator=.
