|
Optional macro for getting monotonic time in milliseconds from an arbitrary
|
|
starting point (device startup, program startup, script startup, etc).
|
|
Fractional time values are allowed (and even recommended). The time returned
|
|
must increase monotonically, and must not jump discontinuously even if system
|
|
date/time is reset. The semantics are similar to POSIX clock_gettime()
|
|
CLOCK_MONOTONIC.
|
|
|
|
Monotonic time is used by Duktape for its internal needs, such as rate
|
|
limiting debugger transport peek callbacks. It is also used to provide
|
|
performance.now(). If this option is not provided, Duktape falls back to
|
|
using DUK_USE_DATE_GET_NOW() which is usually fine.
|
|
|
|
If DUK_USE_DATE_GET_NOW() experiences time jumps or doesn't run in realtime
|
|
(which may be useful for some time virtualization cases) it's recommended
|
|
to provide this config option so that internals which need a reliable
|
|
realtime rate have a reliable time basis.
