BSON Clock Abstraction

Synopsis

int64_t
bson_get_monotonic_time (void);
int
bson_gettimeofday (struct timeval *tv,
                   struct timezone *tz);

Description

The clock abstraction in Libbson provides a cross-platform way to handle timeouts within the BSON library. It abstracts the differences in implementations of gettimeofday() as well as providing a monotonic (incrementing only) clock in microseconds.
