Class: TMicroseconds

Declaration: TimeClasses.h

Taxonomy Categories:

Member Functions:

Interface Category:

API.

Inherits From:

TTime

Inherited By:

None.

Purpose:

A derived class of TTime for microseconds.

Instantiation:

Allocate on the heap or the stack.

Deriving Classes:

Derived classes must preserve TTime and TMicroseconds interfaces.

Concurrency:

Not multithread safe.

Resource Use:

No special requirements.

Member Function: TMicroseconds::TMicroseconds

TMicroseconds ()
TMicroseconds (double numberOfMicroseconds)
TMicroseconds (const TMicroseconds & theMicroseconds)
TMicroseconds (const TTime & theTime)

Interface Category:

API.

Purpose:

Default constructor.
Constructor for initializing with the number of microseconds.
Copy constructor.
Copy constructor for TTime and derived classes.

Calling Context:

Call this function directly.

Called by the stream-in operators and for uninitialized objects.
Called to initialize to a value.
Called to copy an object.
Called to copy a TTime or derived class.

Parameters:

Takes no parameters.
double numberOfMicroseconds -The number of microseconds to be represented.
const TMicroseconds & theMicroseconds -The object to copy.
const TTime & theTime -The object to copy.

Return Value:

None.

Exceptions:

Throws no exceptions, passes all exceptions through.

Concurrency:

Not multithread safe.

Other Considerations:

Can be safely type cast between TTime derived classes because no extra storage is added.

Member Function: TMicroseconds::~TMicroseconds

virtual ~ TMicroseconds ()

Interface Category:

API.

Purpose:

Destructor.

Calling Context:

Call this function directly. Called to destroy an object.

Parameters:

Takes no parameters.

Return Value:

None.

Exceptions:

Throws no exceptions, passes all exceptions through.

Concurrency:

Not multithread safe.

Other Considerations:

None.

Member Function: TMicroseconds::GetMicroseconds

double GetMicroseconds () const

Interface Category:

API.

Purpose:

Gets the number of microseconds represented by the object.

Calling Context:

Call this function directly. Called to get the number of microseconds as a double.

Parameters:

Takes no parameters.

Return Value:

The microseconds.

Exceptions:

Throws no exceptions, passes all exceptions through.

Concurrency:

Not multithread safe.

Other Considerations:

Returns a double that could be a NaN, or positive or negative infinity, depending on the time.

Member Function: TMicroseconds::operator=

TMicroseconds & operator =(const TMicroseconds & theMicroseconds)

Interface Category:

API.

Purpose:

Assignment operator.

Calling Context:

Call this function directly. Called when an object is assigned to another compatible object.

Parameters:

const TMicroseconds & theMicroseconds -The source object for the assignment.

Return Value:

A non-const reference to the left-hand side object.

Exceptions:

Throws no exceptions, passes all exceptions through.

Concurrency:

Not multithread safe.

Other Considerations:

None.
