Part VIII. Time

The following libraries process time values.

  • Boost.DateTime defines classes for time points and periods – for both time of day and calendar dates – and functions to process them. For example, it is possible to iterate over dates.

  • Boost.Chrono and Boost.Timer provide clocks to measure time. The clocks provided by Boost.Timer are specialized for measuring code execution time and are only used when optimizing code.
