Overview

Package monotime provides a monotonic timer for Go 1.2 Go 1.3 will support monotonic time on its own.

Index

• func Monotonic() time.Duration
• func Now() time.Time
• func SetTime(t time.Time)

Functions

func Monotonic

func Monotonic() time.Duration

Monotonic returns a time duration from some fixed point in the past.

func Now

func Now() time.Time

Now returns something close to time.Now(), but is monotonically increasing. Use SetTime to change the clock that Now() is based off of.

func SetTime

func SetTime(t time.Time)

SetTime sets the current time, used by Now() for stable offset generation. SetTime is not threadsafe, and should be run during process start only.
