🧩 Module 🧩

Module Runtime_events.Timestamp

📖 Documentation 📖

Module Timestamp

: sig end

🕰️ type t 🕰️

Abstract timestamp included in events.

🧮 val to_int64 🧮

val to_int64 : t -> int64

Convert a timestamp to a number of nanosecond.

Note that the starting point for timestamps in unspecified: the absolute value is meaningless, only differences matter.

Also note that the precision of the underlying clock may be coarser than nanoseconds: events may have equal timestamp if they are emitted within the coarseness of the clock.

⏰ val get_current ⏰

val get_current : unit -> t

Access the current timestamp.

Since 5.4
