Module timer

Asynchronous timers.

This module provides a timer implementation which returns awaitable Futures. The timer can work with a configurable clock source. In order to utilize the system clock, a global instance StdClock can be utilized.

Structs

• GenericTimerService
  An asynchronously awaitable timer.
• LocalTimerFuture
  A Future that is resolved once the requested time has elapsed.
• MockClock
  A Clock which can be set to arbitrary timestamps for testing purposes.
• StdClock
  A Clock that makes use of the Standard libraries std::time::Instant functionality in order to generate monotonically increasing timestamps.
• TimerFuture
  A Future that is resolved once the requested time has elapsed.

Traits

• Clock
  A monotonic source of time.
• LocalTimer
  An asynchronously awaitable timer which is bound to a thread.
• Timer
  An asynchronously awaitable thread-safe timer.

Type Aliases

• LocalTimerService
  A GenericTimerService implementation which is not thread-safe.
• TimerService
  A GenericTimerService implementation backed by parking_lot.
