package mtime

v2.1.0 2024-09-10 Zagreb

• Add Mtime.Span.{is_shorter,is_longer} to make duration comparisons more obivous. Thanks to Pau Ruiz Safont for the suggestion and the patch.

• Regularize naming structure. The mtime.clock.os library is deprecated. Use mtime.clock instead.

• Make the library mtime.clock export mtime.

v2.0.0 2022-12-02 Zagreb

• Use the new js_of_ocaml ocamlfind META standard to link JavaScript stubs (#28).

• Mtime_clock use CLOCK_BOOTTIME rather than CLOCK_MONOTONIC on Linux and mach_continuous_time rather than mach_absolute_time on macOS. This means that on these platforms sleep time is taken into account (#10). Thanks to Bikal Lem for the patch.

• Add Mtime.{to,of}_float_ns.

• Remove deprecated values Mtime.s_to_* and Mtime.Span.to_* floating points functions. Note that the implementation of Mtime.Span.to_* functions was broken if your span exceeded Int64.max_int. Thanks to Thomas Leonard for the report (#46).

• Change implementation of Mtime.Span.pp and remove Mtime.Span.pp_float_s. The implementation no longer uses floating point arithmetic and always over approximates the result, no duration is printed shorter than it is. The output is no longer US-ASCII but UTF-8 encoded since U+03BC is used for µs.

• Stop installing the clock interface in mtime.clock, this package is now empty (#42).

v1.4.0 2022-02-17 La Forclaz (VS)

• Change the js_of_ocaml strategy for Mtime_clock's JavaScript implementation. Primitives of mtime.clock.os are now implemented in pure JavaScript and linked by js_of_ocaml. This means that the mtime.clock.jsoo library no longer exists, simply link against mtime.clock.os instead. Thanks to Hugo Heuzard for suggesting and implementing this.

• Add Mtime.{min,max}_stamp.

• Add durations Mtime.Span.{ns,us,ms,s,min,hour,day,year} and the Mtime.Span.(*) operator (#28).

• Deprecate Mtime.s_to_* and Mtime.*_to_s floating point constants (#28).

• Require OCaml >= 4.08.

• Allow compiling with MSVC compiler. Thanks to Jonah Beckford for the patch.

v1.3.0 2021-10-20 Zagreb

• Add Windows support. Thanks to Andreas Hauptmann for the patch and Corentin Leruth for the integration.

v1.2.0 2019-07-19 Zagreb

• Add support for node.js. Thanks to Fabian (@copy) for the patch.

• Support for js_of_ocaml 3.4.0.

• Add MTIME_OS environment variable for specifying the OS at build time.

v1.1.0 2017-06-24 London

• Add Mtime.Span.{add,zero,one,min_span,max_span}.

v1.0.0 2017-05-09 La Forclaz (VS)

This is a major breaking release with a new API. Thanks to David Sheets for contributions and discussions. The API was changed to mirror and follow the conventions and design of Ptime. The Mtime module now only provides platform independent datatypes for supporting monotonic clock readings. Platform dependent access to monotonic clocks is provided by the Mtime_clock modules. The Mtime.t type was added for monotonic timestamps.

• Rename packages mtime.{jsoo,os} to mtime.{clock.jsoo,clock.os} which implement the new Mtime_clock interface. The mtime package has the platform independent support.

• Remove Mtime.available, Mtime_clock functions now raise Sys_error on unsupported platforms or errors.

• Add a raw interface to Mtime_clock which statisfies MirageOS's monotonic clock signature.

• Move Mtime.{elapsed,counter,count} to Mtime_clock.{elapsed,counter,count}.

• Add Mtime.t a type to represent system-relative monotonic timestamps and related functions. Thanks to David Sheets for the patch and his patience.

• Add the Mtime.Span module for functions on monotonic time spans. Most of the previous platform independent support is now provided by this module. See below.

• Move Mtime.to_ns_uint64 to Mtime.Span.to_uint64_ns.

• Move other Mtime.to_* to Mtime.Span.to_*.

• Move Mtime.pp_span[_s] to Mtime.Span.pp[_float__s].

• Add Mtime.Span.{compare,equal}. Thanks to David Sheets for the patch.

• Add Mtime.Span.of_uint64_ns. Thanks to David Sheets for the patch.

v0.8.4 2017-02-05 La Forclaz (VS)

• Fix package for -custom linking. Thanks to @orbitz for the report.

• Build depend on topkg.

• Relicense from BSD3 to ISC.

v0.8.3 2015-12-22 Cambridge (UK)

• Fix Linux bytecode builds. Thanks to Edwin Török for the report.

• Really make js_of_ocaml an optional dependency.

v0.8.2 2015-05-17 La Forclaz (VS)

• Simpler toploop support (internal change).

• Improve Linux build support by recording link flags against librt in the cma and cmxa (this seems to be needed in certain distributions). Thanks to David Scott for the report and the fix.

v0.8.1 2015-03-23 La Forclaz (VS)

• Fix broken arithmetic on 32-bit platform with POSIX clocks. Thanks to Stephen Dolan for the report and the fix.

v0.8.0 2015-03-19 La Forclaz (VS)

First release.
