27.3 Cpp17Clock requirements [time.clock.req]

A clock is a bundle consisting of a duration, a time_­point, and a function now() to get the current time_­point.
The origin of the clock's time_­point is referred to as the clock's epoch.
A clock shall meet the requirements in Table 97.
In Table 97 C1 and C2 denote clock types.
t1 and t2 are values returned by C1​::​now() where the call returning t1 happens before ([intro.multithread]) the call returning t2 and both of these calls occur before C1​::​time_­point​::​max().
[Note 1:
This means C1 did not wrap around between t1 and t2.
— end note]
Table 97: Cpp17Clock requirements [tab:time.clock]
Expression
Return type
Operational semantics
C1​::​rep
An arithmetic type or a class emulating an arithmetic type
The representation type of C1​::​duration.
C1​::​period
a specialization of ratio
The tick period of the clock in seconds.
C1​::​duration
chrono​::​duration<C1​::​rep, C1​::​period>
The duration type of the clock.
C1​::​time_­point
chrono​::​time_­point<C1> or chrono​::​time_­point<C2, C1​::​duration>
The time_­point type of the clock.
C1 and C2 shall refer to the same epoch.
C1​::​is_­steady
const bool
true if t1 <= t2 is always true and the time between clock ticks is constant, otherwise false.
C1​::​now()
C1​::​time_­point
Returns a time_­point object representing the current point in time.
[Note 2:
The relative difference in durations between those reported by a given clock and the SI definition is a measure of the quality of implementation.
— end note]
A type TC meets the Cpp17TrivialClock requirements if:
  • TC meets the Cpp17Clock requirements,
  • the types TC​::​rep, TC​::​duration, and TC​::​time_­point meet the Cpp17EqualityComparable (Table 25) and Cpp17LessThanComparable (Table 26) requirements and the requirements of numeric types ([numeric.requirements]).
    [Note 3:
    This means, in particular, that operations on these types will not throw exceptions.
    — end note]
  • lvalues of the types TC​::​rep, TC​::​duration, and TC​::​time_­point are swappable ([swappable.requirements]),
  • the function TC​::​now() does not throw exceptions, and
  • the type TC​::​time_­point​::​clock meets the Cpp17TrivialClock requirements, recursively.

27.4 Time-related traits [time.traits]

27.4.1 treat_­as_­floating_­point [time.traits.is.fp]

template<class Rep> struct treat_as_floating_point : is_floating_point<Rep> { };
The duration template uses the treat_­as_­floating_­point trait to help determine if a duration object can be converted to another duration with a different tick period.
If treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<Rep> is true, then implicit conversions are allowed among durations.
Otherwise, the implicit convertibility depends on the tick periods of the durations.
[Note 1:
The intention of this trait is to indicate whether a given class behaves like a floating-point type, and thus allows division of one value by another with acceptable loss of precision.
If treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<Rep> is false, Rep will be treated as if it behaved like an integral type for the purpose of these conversions.
— end note]

27.4.2 duration_­values [time.traits.duration.values]

template<class Rep> struct duration_values { public: static constexpr Rep zero() noexcept; static constexpr Rep min() noexcept; static constexpr Rep max() noexcept; };
The duration template uses the duration_­values trait to construct special values of the duration's representation (Rep).
This is done because the representation can be a class type with behavior that requires some other implementation to return these special values.
In that case, the author of that class type should specialize duration_­values to return the indicated values.
static constexpr Rep zero() noexcept;
Returns: Rep(0).
[Note 1:
Rep(0) is specified instead of Rep() because Rep() can have some other meaning, such as an uninitialized value.
— end note]
Remarks: The value returned shall be the additive identity.
static constexpr Rep min() noexcept;
Returns: numeric_­limits<Rep>​::​lowest().
Remarks: The value returned shall compare less than or equal to zero().
static constexpr Rep max() noexcept;
Returns: numeric_­limits<Rep>​::​max().
Remarks: The value returned shall compare greater than zero().

27.4.3 Specializations of common_­type [time.traits.specializations]

template<class Rep1, class Period1, class Rep2, class Period2> struct common_type<chrono::duration<Rep1, Period1>, chrono::duration<Rep2, Period2>> { using type = chrono::duration<common_type_t<Rep1, Rep2>, see below>; };
The period of the duration indicated by this specialization of common_­type is the greatest common divisor of Period1 and Period2.
[Note 1:
This can be computed by forming a ratio of the greatest common divisor of Period1​::​num and Period2​::​num and the least common multiple of Period1​::​den and Period2​::​den.
— end note]
[Note 2:
The typedef name type is a synonym for the duration with the largest tick period possible where both duration arguments will convert to it without requiring a division operation.
The representation of this type is intended to be able to hold any value resulting from this conversion with no truncation error, although floating-point durations can have round-off errors.
— end note]
template<class Clock, class Duration1, class Duration2> struct common_type<chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration1>, chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration2>> { using type = chrono::time_point<Clock, common_type_t<Duration1, Duration2>>; };
The common type of two time_­point types is a time_­point with the same clock as the two types and the common type of their two durations.

27.4.4 Class template is_­clock [time.traits.is.clock]

template<class T> struct is_clock;
is_­clock is a Cpp17UnaryTypeTrait ([meta.rqmts]) with a base characteristic of true_­type if T meets the Cpp17Clock requirements ([time.clock.req]), otherwise false_­type.
For the purposes of the specification of this trait, the extent to which an implementation determines that a type cannot meet the Cpp17Clock requirements is unspecified, except that as a minimum a type T shall not qualify as a Cpp17Clock unless it meets all of the following conditions:
  • the qualified-ids T​::​rep, T​::​period, T​::​duration, and T​::​time_­point are valid and each denotes a type ([temp.deduct]),
  • the expression T​::​is_­steady is well-formed when treated as an unevaluated operand,
  • the expression T​::​now() is well-formed when treated as an unevaluated operand.
The behavior of a program that adds specializations for is_­clock is undefined.

27.5 Class template duration [time.duration]

27.5.1 General [time.duration.general]

A duration type measures time between two points in time (time_­points).
A duration has a representation which holds a count of ticks and a tick period.
The tick period is the amount of time which occurs from one tick to the next, in units of seconds.
It is expressed as a rational constant using the template ratio.
namespace std::chrono { template<class Rep, class Period = ratio<1>> class duration { public: using rep = Rep; using period = typename Period::type; private: rep rep_; // exposition only public: // [time.duration.cons], construct/copy/destroy constexpr duration() = default; template<class Rep2> constexpr explicit duration(const Rep2& r); template<class Rep2, class Period2> constexpr duration(const duration<Rep2, Period2>& d); ~duration() = default; duration(const duration&) = default; duration& operator=(const duration&) = default; // [time.duration.observer], observer constexpr rep count() const; // [time.duration.arithmetic], arithmetic constexpr common_type_t<duration> operator+() const; constexpr common_type_t<duration> operator-() const; constexpr duration& operator++(); constexpr duration operator++(int); constexpr duration& operator--(); constexpr duration operator--(int); constexpr duration& operator+=(const duration& d); constexpr duration& operator-=(const duration& d); constexpr duration& operator*=(const rep& rhs); constexpr duration& operator/=(const rep& rhs); constexpr duration& operator%=(const rep& rhs); constexpr duration& operator%=(const duration& rhs); // [time.duration.special], special values static constexpr duration zero() noexcept; static constexpr duration min() noexcept; static constexpr duration max() noexcept; }; }
Rep shall be an arithmetic type or a class emulating an arithmetic type.
If duration is instantiated with a duration type as the argument for the template parameter Rep, the program is ill-formed.
If Period is not a specialization of ratio, the program is ill-formed.
If Period​::​num is not positive, the program is ill-formed.
Members of duration do not throw exceptions other than those thrown by the indicated operations on their representations.
The defaulted copy constructor of duration shall be a constexpr function if and only if the required initialization of the member rep_­ for copy and move, respectively, would satisfy the requirements for a constexpr function.
[Example 1: duration<long, ratio<60>> d0; // holds a count of minutes using a long duration<long long, milli> d1; // holds a count of milliseconds using a long long duration<double, ratio<1, 30>> d2; // holds a count with a tick period of of a second // (30 Hz) using a double — end example]

27.5.2 Constructors [time.duration.cons]

template<class Rep2> constexpr explicit duration(const Rep2& r);
Constraints: is_­convertible_­v<const Rep2&, rep> is true and
  • treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<rep> is true or
  • treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<Rep2> is false.
[Example 1: duration<int, milli> d(3); // OK duration<int, milli> d(3.5); // error — end example]
Postconditions: count() == static_­cast<rep>(r).
template<class Rep2, class Period2> constexpr duration(const duration<Rep2, Period2>& d);
Constraints: No overflow is induced in the conversion and treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<rep> is true or both ratio_­divide<Period2, period>​::​den is 1 and treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<Rep2> is false.
[Note 1:
This requirement prevents implicit truncation error when converting between integral-based duration types.
Such a construction could easily lead to confusion about the value of the duration.
— end note]
[Example 2: duration<int, milli> ms(3); duration<int, micro> us = ms; // OK duration<int, milli> ms2 = us; // error — end example]
Effects: Initializes rep_­ with duration_­cast<duration>(d).count().

constexpr duration& operator/=(const rep& rhs);
Effects: Equivalent to: rep_­ /= rhs.
Returns: *this.
constexpr duration& operator%=(const rep& rhs);
Effects: Equivalent to: rep_­ %= rhs.
Returns: *this.
constexpr duration& operator%=(const duration& rhs);
Effects: Equivalent to: rep_­ %= rhs.count().
Returns: *this.

27.5.5 Special values [time.duration.special]

static constexpr duration zero() noexcept;
Returns: duration(duration_­values<rep>​::​zero()).
static constexpr duration min() noexcept;
Returns: duration(duration_­values<rep>​::​min()).
static constexpr duration max() noexcept;
Returns: duration(duration_­values<rep>​::​max()).

Returns: CD(CD(lhs).count() % CD(rhs).count()).

27.5.7 Comparisons [time.duration.comparisons]

In the function descriptions that follow, CT represents common_­type_­t<A, B>, where A and B are the types of the two arguments to the function.

Constraints: ToDuration is a specialization of duration.
Returns: Let CF be ratio_­divide<Period, typename ToDuration​::​period>, and CR be common_­type<typename ToDuration​::​rep, Rep, intmax_­t>​::​type.
  • If CF​::​num == 1 and CF​::​den == 1, returns ToDuration(static_cast<typename ToDuration::rep>(d.count()))

  • otherwise, returns ToDuration(static_cast<typename ToDuration::rep>( static_cast<CR>(d.count()) * static_cast<CR>(CF::num) / static_cast<CR>(CF::den)))
[Note 1:
This function does not use any implicit conversions; all conversions are done with static_­cast.
It avoids multiplications and divisions when it is known at compile time that one or more arguments is 1.
Intermediate computations are carried out in the widest representation and only converted to the destination representation at the final step.
— end note]
template<class ToDuration, class Rep, class Period> constexpr ToDuration floor(const duration<Rep, Period>& d);
Constraints: ToDuration is a specialization of duration.
Returns: The greatest result t representable in ToDuration for which t <= d.
template<class ToDuration, class Rep, class Period> constexpr ToDuration ceil(const duration<Rep, Period>& d);
Constraints: ToDuration is a specialization of duration.
Returns: The least result t representable in ToDuration for which t >= d.
template<class ToDuration, class Rep, class Period> constexpr ToDuration round(const duration<Rep, Period>& d);
Constraints: ToDuration is a specialization of duration and treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<typename ToDuration​::​rep> is false.
Returns: The value of ToDuration that is closest to d.
If there are two closest values, then return the value t for which t % 2 == 0.

27.5.9 Suffixes for duration literals [time.duration.literals]

This subclause describes literal suffixes for constructing duration literals.
The suffixes h, min, s, ms, us, ns denote duration values of the corresponding types hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds, microseconds, and nanoseconds respectively if they are applied to integer-literals.
If any of these suffixes are applied to a floating-point-literal the result is a chrono​::​duration literal with an unspecified floating-point representation.
If any of these suffixes are applied to an integer-literal and the resulting chrono​::​duration value cannot be represented in the result type because of overflow, the program is ill-formed.
[Example 1:
The following code shows some duration literals.
using namespace std::chrono_literals; auto constexpr aday=24h; auto constexpr lesson=45min; auto constexpr halfanhour=0.5h; — end example]
constexpr chrono::hours operator""h(unsigned long long hours); constexpr chrono::duration<unspecified, ratio<3600, 1>> operator""h(long double hours);
Returns: A duration literal representing hours hours.
constexpr chrono::minutes operator""min(unsigned long long minutes); constexpr chrono::duration<unspecified, ratio<60, 1>> operator""min(long double minutes);
Returns: A duration literal representing minutes minutes.
constexpr chrono::seconds operator""s(unsigned long long sec); constexpr chrono::duration<unspecified> operator""s(long double sec);
Returns: A duration literal representing sec seconds.
[Note 1:
The same suffix s is used for basic_­string but there is no conflict, since duration suffixes apply to numbers and string literal suffixes apply to character array literals.
— end note]
constexpr chrono::milliseconds operator""ms(unsigned long long msec); constexpr chrono::duration<unspecified, milli> operator""ms(long double msec);
Returns: A duration literal representing msec milliseconds.
constexpr chrono::microseconds operator""us(unsigned long long usec); constexpr chrono::duration<unspecified, micro> operator""us(long double usec);
Returns: A duration literal representing usec microseconds.
constexpr chrono::nanoseconds operator""ns(unsigned long long nsec); constexpr chrono::duration<unspecified, nano> operator""ns(long double nsec);
Returns: A duration literal representing nsec nanoseconds.

27.5.10 Algorithms [time.duration.alg]

template<class Rep, class Period> constexpr duration<Rep, Period> abs(duration<Rep, Period> d);
Constraints: numeric_­limits<Rep>​::​is_­signed is true.
Returns: If d >= d.zero(), return d, otherwise return -d.

27.5.11 I/O [time.duration.io]

template<class charT, class traits, class Rep, class Period> basic_ostream<charT, traits>& operator<<(basic_ostream<charT, traits>& os, const duration<Rep, Period>& d);

27.7.1 General [time.clock.general]

The types defined in [time.clock] meet the Cpp17TrivialClock requirements ([time.clock.req]) unless otherwise specified.

27.7.2 Class system_­clock [time.clock.system]

27.7.2.1 Overview [time.clock.system.overview]

namespace std::chrono { class system_clock { public: using rep = see below; using period = ratio<unspecified, unspecified>; using duration = chrono::duration<rep, period>; using time_point = chrono::time_point<system_clock>; static constexpr bool is_steady = unspecified; static time_point now() noexcept; // mapping to/from C type time_­t static time_t to_time_t (const time_point& t) noexcept; static time_point from_time_t(time_t t) noexcept; }; }
Objects of type system_­clock represent wall clock time from the system-wide realtime clock.
Objects of type sys_­time<Duration> measure time since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC excluding leap seconds.
This measure is commonly referred to as Unix time.
This measure facilitates an efficient mapping between sys_­time and calendar types ([time.cal]).
[Example 1:
sys_­seconds{sys_­days{1970y/January/1}}.time_­since_­epoch() is 0s.

sys_­seconds{sys_­days{2000y/January/1}}.time_­since_­epoch() is 946'684'800s, which is 10'957 * 86'400s.

[Note 1:
This implies that rep is a signed type.
— end note]
static time_t to_time_t(const time_point& t) noexcept;
Returns: A time_­t object that represents the same point in time as t when both values are restricted to the coarser of the precisions of time_­t and time_­point.
It is implementation-defined whether values are rounded or truncated to the required precision.
static time_point from_time_t(time_t t) noexcept;
Returns: A time_­point object that represents the same point in time as t when both values are restricted to the coarser of the precisions of time_­t and time_­point.
It is implementation-defined whether values are rounded or truncated to the required precision.

27.7.2.3 Non-member functions [time.clock.system.nonmembers]

template<class charT, class traits, class Duration> basic_ostream<charT, traits>& operator<<(basic_ostream<charT, traits>& os, const sys_time<Duration>& tp);
Constraints: treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<typename Duration​::​rep> is false, and Duration{1} < days{1} is true.
Effects: Equivalent to: auto const dp = floor<days>(tp); return os << format(os.getloc(), STATICALLY-WIDEN<charT>("{} {}"), year_month_day{dp}, hh_mm_ss{tp-dp});
[Example 1: cout << sys_seconds{0s} << '\n'; // 1970-01-01 00:00:00 cout << sys_seconds{946'684'800s} << '\n'; // 2000-01-01 00:00:00 cout << sys_seconds{946'688'523s} << '\n'; // 2000-01-01 01:02:03 — end example]
template<class charT, class traits> basic_ostream<charT, traits>& operator<<(basic_ostream<charT, traits>& os, const sys_days& dp);
Effects: os << year_­month_­day{dp}.
Returns: os.
template<class charT, class traits, class Duration, class Alloc = allocator<charT>> basic_istream<charT, traits>& from_stream(basic_istream<charT, traits>& is, const charT* fmt, sys_time<Duration>& tp, basic_string<charT, traits, Alloc>* abbrev = nullptr, minutes* offset = nullptr);
Effects: Attempts to parse the input stream is into the sys_­time tp using the format flags given in the NTCTS fmt as specified in [time.parse].
If the parse fails to decode a valid date, is.setstate(ios_­base​::​failbit) is called and tp is not modified.
If %Z is used and successfully parsed, that value will be assigned to *abbrev if abbrev is non-null.
If %z (or a modified variant) is used and successfully parsed, that value will be assigned to *offset if offset is non-null.
Additionally, the parsed offset will be subtracted from the successfully parsed timestamp prior to assigning that difference to tp.
Returns: is.

27.7.3 Class utc_­clock [time.clock.utc]

27.7.3.1 Overview [time.clock.utc.overview]

namespace std::chrono { class utc_clock { public: using rep = a signed arithmetic type; using period = ratio<unspecified, unspecified>; using duration = chrono::duration<rep, period>; using time_point = chrono::time_point<utc_clock>; static constexpr bool is_steady = unspecified; static time_point now(); template<class Duration> static sys_time<common_type_t<Duration, seconds>> to_sys(const utc_time<Duration>& t); template<class Duration> static utc_time<common_type_t<Duration, seconds>> from_sys(const sys_time<Duration>& t); }; }
In contrast to sys_­time, which does not take leap seconds into account, utc_­clock and its associated time_­point, utc_­time, count time, including leap seconds, since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC.
[Note 1:
The UTC time standard began on 1972-01-01 00:00:10 TAI. To measure time since this epoch instead, one can add/subtract the constant sys_­days{1972y/1/1} - sys_­days{1970y/1/1} (63'072'000s) from the utc_­time.
— end note]
[Example 1:
clock_­cast<utc_­clock>(sys_­seconds{sys_­days{1970y/January/1}}).time_­since_­epoch() is 0s.

clock_­cast<utc_­clock>(sys_­seconds{sys_­days{2000y/January/1}}).time_­since_­epoch() is 946'684'822s,
which is 10'957 * 86'400s + 22s.

utc_­clock is not a Cpp17TrivialClock unless the implementation can guarantee that utc_­clock​::​now() does not propagate an exception.

template<class Duration> static sys_time<common_type_t<Duration, seconds>> to_sys(const utc_time<Duration>& u);
Returns: A sys_­time t, such that from_­sys(t) == u if such a mapping exists.

Returns: A utc_­time u, such that u.time_­since_­epoch() - t.time_­since_­epoch() is equal to the sum of leap seconds that were inserted between t and 1970-01-01.
If t is exactly the date of leap second insertion, then the conversion counts that leap second as inserted.
[Example 1: auto t = sys_days{July/1/2015} - 2ns; auto u = utc_clock::from_sys(t); assert(u.time_since_epoch() - t.time_since_epoch() == 25s); t += 1ns; u = utc_clock::from_sys(t); assert(u.time_since_epoch() - t.time_since_epoch() == 25s); t += 1ns; u = utc_clock::from_sys(t); assert(u.time_since_epoch() - t.time_since_epoch() == 26s); t += 1ns; u = utc_clock::from_sys(t); assert(u.time_since_epoch() - t.time_since_epoch() == 26s); — end example]

Effects: Attempts to parse the input stream is into the utc_­time tp using the format flags given in the NTCTS fmt as specified in [time.parse].
If the parse fails to decode a valid date, is.setstate(ios_­base​::​failbit) is called and tp is not modified.

Returns: is.

The type leap_­second_­info has data members and special members specified above.
It has no base classes or members other than those specified.
template<class Duration> leap_second_info get_leap_second_info(const utc_time<Duration>& ut);
Returns: A leap_­second_­info lsi, where lsi.is_­leap_­second is true if ut is during a positive leap second insertion, and otherwise false.
lsi.elapsed is the sum of leap seconds between 1970-01-01 and ut.
If lsi.is_­leap_­second is true, the leap second referred to by ut is included in the sum.

27.7.4 Class tai_­clock [time.clock.tai]

27.7.4.1 Overview [time.clock.tai.overview]

namespace std::chrono { class tai_clock { public: using rep = a signed arithmetic type; using period = ratio<unspecified, unspecified>; using duration = chrono::duration<rep, period>; using time_point = chrono::time_point<tai_clock>; static constexpr bool is_steady = unspecified; static time_point now(); template<class Duration> static utc_time<common_type_t<Duration, seconds>> to_utc(const tai_time<Duration>&) noexcept; template<class Duration> static tai_time<common_type_t<Duration, seconds>> from_utc(const utc_time<Duration>&) noexcept; }; }
The clock tai_­clock measures seconds since 1958-01-01 00:00:00 and is offset 10s ahead of UTC at this date.
That is, 1958-01-01 00:00:00 TAI is equivalent to 1957-12-31 23:59:50 UTC.
Leap seconds are not inserted into TAI.
Therefore every time a leap second is inserted into UTC, UTC shifts another second with respect to TAI.
For example by 2000-01-01 there had been 22 positive and 0 negative leap seconds inserted so 2000-01-01 00:00:00 UTC is equivalent to 2000-01-01 00:00:32 TAI (22s plus the initial 10s offset).
tai_­clock is not a Cpp17TrivialClock unless the implementation can guarantee that tai_­clock​::​now() does not propagate an exception.

noexcept(from_­utc(utc_­clock​::​now())) is false.

27.7.5 Class gps_­clock [time.clock.gps]

27.7.5.1 Overview [time.clock.gps.overview]

namespace std::chrono { class gps_clock { public: using rep = a signed arithmetic type; using period = ratio<unspecified, unspecified>; using duration = chrono::duration<rep, period>; using time_point = chrono::time_point<gps_clock>; static constexpr bool is_steady = unspecified; static time_point now(); template<class Duration> static utc_time<common_type_t<Duration, seconds>> to_utc(const gps_time<Duration>&) noexcept; template<class Duration> static gps_time<common_type_t<Duration, seconds>> from_utc(const utc_time<Duration>&) noexcept; }; }
The clock gps_­clock measures seconds since the first Sunday of January, 1980 00:00:00 UTC.
Leap seconds are not inserted into GPS.
Therefore every time a leap second is inserted into UTC, UTC shifts another second with respect to GPS.
Aside from the offset from 1958y/January/1 to 1980y/January/Sunday[1], GPS is behind TAI by 19s due to the 10s offset between 1958 and 1970 and the additional 9 leap seconds inserted between 1970 and 1980.
gps_­clock is not a Cpp17TrivialClock unless the implementation can guarantee that gps_­clock​::​now() does not propagate an exception.

Effects: Attempts to parse the input stream is into the gps_­time tp using the format flags given in the NTCTS fmt as specified in [time.parse].
If the parse fails to decode a valid date, is.setstate(ios_­base​::​failbit) is called and tp is not modified.
If %Z is used and successfully parsed, that value will be assigned to *abbrev if abbrev is non-null.
If %z (or a modified variant) is used and successfully parsed, that value will be assigned to *offset if offset is non-null.
Additionally, the parsed offset will be subtracted from the successfully parsed timestamp prior to assigning that difference to tp.
Returns: is.

27.7.6 Type file_­clock [time.clock.file]

27.7.6.1 Overview [time.clock.file.overview]

namespace std::chrono { using file_clock = see below; }
file_­clock is an alias for a type meeting the Cpp17TrivialClock requirements ([time.clock.req]), and using a signed arithmetic type for file_­clock​::​rep.
file_­clock is used to create the time_­point system used for file_­time_­type ([filesystems]).
Its epoch is unspecified, and noexcept(file_­clock​::​now()) is true.
[Note 1:
The type that file_­clock denotes can be in a different namespace than std​::​chrono, such as std​::​filesystem.
— end note]

27.7.6.2 Member functions [time.clock.file.members]

The type denoted by file_­clock provides precisely one of the following two sets of static member functions: template<class Duration> static sys_time<see below> to_sys(const file_time<Duration>&); template<class Duration> static file_time<see below> from_sys(const sys_time<Duration>&); or: template<class Duration> static utc_time<see below> to_utc(const file_time<Duration>&); template<class Duration> static file_time<see below> from_utc(const utc_time<Duration>&);
These member functions shall provide time_­point conversions consistent with those specified by utc_­clock, tai_­clock, and gps_­clock.
The Duration of the resultant time_­point is computed from the Duration of the input time_­point.

27.7.6.3 Non-member functions [time.clock.file.nonmembers]

template<class charT, class traits, class Duration> basic_ostream<charT, traits>& operator<<(basic_ostream<charT, traits>& os, const file_time<Duration>& t);
Effects: Equivalent to: return os << format(STATICALLY-WIDEN<charT>("{:%F %T}"), t);
template<class charT, class traits, class Duration, class Alloc = allocator<charT>> basic_istream<charT, traits>& from_stream(basic_istream<charT, traits>& is, const charT* fmt, file_time<Duration>& tp, basic_string<charT, traits, Alloc>* abbrev = nullptr, minutes* offset = nullptr);
Effects: Attempts to parse the input stream is into the file_­time tp using the format flags given in the NTCTS fmt as specified in [time.parse].
If the parse fails to decode a valid date, is.setstate(ios_­base​::​failbit) is called and tp is not modified.
If %Z is used and successfully parsed, that value will be assigned to *abbrev if abbrev is non-null.
If %z (or a modified variant) is used and successfully parsed, that value will be assigned to *offset if offset is non-null.
Additionally, the parsed offset will be subtracted from the successfully parsed timestamp prior to assigning that difference to tp.
Returns: is.

27.7.7 Class steady_­clock [time.clock.steady]

namespace std::chrono { class steady_clock { public: using rep = unspecified; using period = ratio<unspecified, unspecified>; using duration = chrono::duration<rep, period>; using time_point = chrono::time_point<unspecified, duration>; static constexpr bool is_steady = true; static time_point now() noexcept; }; }
Objects of class steady_­clock represent clocks for which values of time_­point never decrease as physical time advances and for which values of time_­point advance at a steady rate relative to real time.
That is, the clock may not be adjusted.

27.7.8 Class high_­resolution_­clock [time.clock.hires]

namespace std::chrono { class high_resolution_clock { public: using rep = unspecified; using period = ratio<unspecified, unspecified>; using duration = chrono::duration<rep, period>; using time_point = chrono::time_point<unspecified, duration>; static constexpr bool is_steady = unspecified; static time_point now() noexcept; }; }
Objects of class high_­resolution_­clock represent clocks with the shortest tick period.
high_­resolution_­clock may be a synonym for system_­clock or steady_­clock.

27.7.9 Local time [time.clock.local]

The family of time points denoted by local_­time<Duration> are based on the pseudo clock local_­t.
local_­t has no member now() and thus does not meet the clock requirements.
Nevertheless local_­time<Duration> serves the vital role of representing local time with respect to a not-yet-specified time zone.
Aside from being able to get the current time, the complete time_­point algebra is available for local_­time<Duration> (just as for sys_­time<Duration>).
template<class charT, class traits, class Duration> basic_ostream<charT, traits>& operator<<(basic_ostream<charT, traits>& os, const local_time<Duration>& lt);
Effects: os << sys_time<Duration>{lt.time_since_epoch()};
Returns: os.
template<class charT, class traits, class Duration, class Alloc = allocator<charT>> basic_istream<charT, traits>& from_stream(basic_istream<charT, traits>& is, const charT* fmt, local_time<Duration>& tp, basic_string<charT, traits, Alloc>* abbrev = nullptr, minutes* offset = nullptr);
Effects: Attempts to parse the input stream is into the local_­time tp using the format flags given in the NTCTS fmt as specified in [time.parse].
If the parse fails to decode a valid date, is.setstate(ios_­base​::​failbit) is called and tp is not modified.
If %Z is used and successfully parsed, that value will be assigned to *abbrev if abbrev is non-null.
If %z (or a modified variant) is used and successfully parsed, that value will be assigned to *offset if offset is non-null.
Returns: is.

27.7.10 time_­point conversions [time.clock.cast]

27.7.10.1 Class template clock_­time_­conversion [time.clock.conv]

namespace std::chrono { template<class DestClock, class SourceClock> struct clock_time_conversion {}; }
clock_­time_­conversion serves as a trait which can be used to specify how to convert a source time_­point of type time_­point<SourceClock, Duration> to a destination time_­point of type time_­point<DestClock, Duration> via a specialization: clock_­time_­conversion<DestClock, SourceClock>.
A specialization of clock_­time_­conversion<DestClock, SourceClock> shall provide a const-qualified operator() that takes a parameter of type time_­point<SourceClock, Duration> and returns a time_­point<DestClock, OtherDuration> representing an equivalent point in time.
OtherDuration is a chrono​::​duration whose specialization is computed from the input Duration in a manner which can vary for each clock_­time_­conversion specialization.
A program may specialize clock_­time_­conversion if at least one of the template parameters is a user-defined clock type.
Several specializations are provided by the implementation, as described in [time.clock.cast.id], [time.clock.cast.sys.utc], [time.clock.cast.sys], and [time.clock.cast.utc].

Constraints: At least one of the following clock time conversion expressions is well-formed:

27.8.2 Class last_­spec [time.cal.last]

namespace std::chrono { struct last_spec { explicit last_spec() = default; }; }
The type last_­spec is used in conjunction with other calendar types to specify the last in a sequence.
For example, depending on context, it can represent the last day of a month, or the last day of the week of a month.

27.8.3 Class day [time.cal.day]

27.8.3.1 Overview [time.cal.day.overview]

namespace std::chrono { class day { unsigned char d_; // exposition only public: day() = default; constexpr explicit day(unsigned d) noexcept; constexpr day& operator++() noexcept; constexpr day operator++(int) noexcept; constexpr day& operator--() noexcept; constexpr day operator--(int) noexcept; constexpr day& operator+=(const days& d) noexcept; constexpr day& operator-=(const days& d) noexcept; constexpr explicit operator unsigned() const noexcept; constexpr bool ok() const noexcept; }; }
day represents a day of a month.
It normally holds values in the range 1 to 31, but may hold non-negative values outside this range.
It can be constructed with any unsigned value, which will be subsequently truncated to fit into day's unspecified internal storage.
day meets the Cpp17EqualityComparable (Table 25) and Cpp17LessThanComparable (Table 26) requirements, and participates in basic arithmetic with days objects, which represent a difference between two day objects.

Effects: Attempts to parse the input stream is into the day d using the format flags given in the NTCTS fmt as specified in [time.parse].
If the parse fails to decode a valid day, is.setstate(ios_­base​::​failbit) is called and d is not modified.
If %Z is used and successfully parsed, that value will be assigned to *abbrev if abbrev is non-null.
If %z (or a modified variant) is used and successfully parsed, that value will be assigned to *offset if offset is non-null.
Returns: is.

month represents a month of a year.
It normally holds values in the range 1 to 12, but may hold non-negative values outside this range.
It can be constructed with any unsigned value, which will be subsequently truncated to fit into month's unspecified internal storage.
month meets the Cpp17EqualityComparable (Table 25) and Cpp17LessThanComparable (Table 26) requirements, and participates in basic arithmetic with months objects, which represent a difference between two month objects.
month is a trivially copyable and standard-layout class type.

Returns: month{modulo(static_cast<long long>(unsigned{x}) + (y.count() - 1), 12) + 1} where modulo(n, 12) computes the remainder of n divided by 12 using Euclidean division.
[Note 1:
Given a divisor of 12, Euclidean division truncates towards negative infinity and always produces a remainder in the range of [0, 11].
Assuming no overflow in the signed summation, this operation results in a month holding a value in the range [1, 12] even if !x.ok().

weekday represents a day of the week in the civil calendar.
It normally holds values in the range 0 to 6, corresponding to Sunday through Saturday, but it may hold non-negative values outside this range.
It can be constructed with any unsigned value, which will be subsequently truncated to fit into weekday's unspecified internal storage.
weekday meets the Cpp17EqualityComparable (Table 25) requirements.
[Note 1:
weekday is not Cpp17LessThanComparable because there is no universal consensus on which day is the first day of the week.
weekday's arithmetic operations treat the days of the week as a circular range, with no beginning and no end.

Monday + days{6} == Sunday.
— end example]

constexpr year_month_day operator+(const years& dy, const year_month_day& ymd) noexcept;
Returns: ymd + dy.
constexpr year_month_day operator-(const year_month_day& ymd, const years& dy) noexcept;
Returns: ymd + (-dy).
template<class charT, class traits> basic_ostream<charT, traits>& operator<<(basic_ostream<charT, traits>& os, const year_month_day& ymd);
Effects: Equivalent to: return os << (ymd.ok() ? format(STATICALLY-WIDEN<charT>("{:%F}"), ymd) : format(STATICALLY-WIDEN<charT>("{:%F} is not a valid date"), ymd));
template<class charT, class traits, class Alloc = allocator<charT>> basic_istream<charT, traits>& from_stream(basic_istream<charT, traits>& is, const charT* fmt, year_month_day& ymd, basic_string<charT, traits, Alloc>* abbrev = nullptr, minutes* offset = nullptr);
Effects: Attempts to parse the input stream is into the year_­month_­day ymd using the format flags given in the NTCTS fmt as specified in [time.parse].
If the parse fails to decode a valid year_­month_­day, is.setstate(ios_­base​::​failbit) is called and ymd is not modified.
If %Z is used and successfully parsed, that value will be assigned to *abbrev if abbrev is non-null.
If %z (or a modified variant) is used and successfully parsed, that value will be assigned to *offset if offset is non-null.
Returns: is.

27.8.15 Class year_­month_­day_­last [time.cal.ymdlast]

27.8.15.1 Overview [time.cal.ymdlast.overview]

namespace std::chrono { class year_month_day_last { chrono::year y_; // exposition only chrono::month_day_last mdl_; // exposition only public: constexpr year_month_day_last(const chrono::year& y, const chrono::month_day_last& mdl) noexcept; constexpr year_month_day_last& operator+=(const months& m) noexcept; constexpr year_month_day_last& operator-=(const months& m) noexcept; constexpr year_month_day_last& operator+=(const years& y) noexcept; constexpr year_month_day_last& operator-=(const years& y) noexcept; constexpr chrono::year year() const noexcept; constexpr chrono::month month() const noexcept; constexpr chrono::month_day_last month_day_last() const noexcept; constexpr chrono::day day() const noexcept; constexpr operator sys_days() const noexcept; constexpr explicit operator local_days() const noexcept; constexpr bool ok() const noexcept; }; }
year_­month_­day_­last represents the last day of a specific year and month.
year_­month_­day_­last is a field-based time point with a resolution of days, except that it is restricted to pointing to the last day of a year and month.
[Note 1:
year_­month_­day_­last supports years- and months-oriented arithmetic, but not days-oriented arithmetic.
For the latter, there is a conversion to sys_­days, which efficiently supports days-oriented arithmetic.
— end note]
year_­month_­day_­last meets the Cpp17EqualityComparable (Table 25) and Cpp17LessThanComparable (Table 26) requirements.
year_­month_­day_­last is a trivially copyable and standard-layout class type.
