Stopwatch Class Reference

The Stopwatch keeps track of time spent in the run state, accessed through ElapsedRunTime(), and time spent in the stop state, accessed through ElapsedStopTime(). Elapsed run time starts accumulating after the first call to Start(). Elapsed stop time starts accumulation after Start() has been called followed by Stop(). The stopwatch can be reset with the Reset() function. More...

Detailed Description

The Stopwatch keeps track of time spent in the run state, accessed through ElapsedRunTime(), and time spent in the stop state, accessed through ElapsedStopTime(). Elapsed run time starts accumulating after the first call to Start(). Elapsed stop time starts accumulation after Start() has been called followed by Stop(). The stopwatch can be reset with the Reset() function.

Example usage

Stopwatch watch;
watch.Start();

// do something...

std::cout << "Elapsed time is "
<< std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::milliseconds>(
  timeSys.ElapsedRunTime()).count() << " ms\n";
watch.Stop();

Member Function Documentation

ElapsedRunTime()

clock::duration ElapsedRunTime

(

)

const

Get the amount of time that the stop watch has been running. This is the total amount of run time, spannning all start and stop calls. The Reset function or passing true to the Start function will reset this value.

Returns

Total amount of elapsed run time.

ElapsedStopTime()

clock::duration ElapsedStopTime

(

)

const

Get the amount of time that the stop watch has been stopped. This is the total amount of stop time, spannning all start and stop calls. The Reset function or passing true to the Start function will reset this value.

Returns

Total amount of elapsed stop time.

Reset()

void Reset

(

)

Reset the stopwatch. This resets the start time, stop time, elapsed duration and elapsed stop duration.

Running()

bool Running

(

)

const

Get whether the stopwatch is running.

Returns

True if the stopwatch is running.

Start()

bool Start

(

const bool

_reset = false

)

Start the stopwatch.

Parameters

[in]

_reset

If true the stopwatch is reset first.

Returns

True if the the stopwatch was started. This will return false if the stopwatch was already running.

StartTime()

clock::time_point StartTime

(

)

const

Get the time when the stopwatch was started.

Returns

The time when stopwatch was started, or std::chrono::steady_clock::time_point::min() if the stopwatch has not been started.

Stop()

bool Stop

(

)

Stop the stopwatch.

Returns

True if the stopwatch was stopped. This will return false if the stopwatch is not running.

StopTime()

clock::time_point StopTime

(

)

const

Get the time when the stopwatch was last stopped.

Returns

The time when stopwatch was last stopped, or std::chrono::steady_clock::time_point::min() if the stopwatch has never been stopped.
