I've uploaded a quickly done version using date-time types to the vault under
System:
http://boost-consulting.com/vault/index.php?direction=0&order=&directory=System&
I mostly did the minimal set of changes, but if I was doing a complete job I
would want to change some of the implementation. For example, I wouldn't want
to handle an error in the call to the clock by setting the elapsed to -1.
Also, I'd probably redo the interfaces all in terms of time_duration and then
use milliseconds when I know the time base is actually in terms of
milliseconds (I did that sortof half way). As for i/o, I just did the
expedient thing and used the operator<< for time duration which prints in the
form:
HH::MM::SS.ffffffff
Oh and I didn't even mess with the windows side of things. I'm out of time for
now, but hopefully this will provide some food for thought and discussion.
