Methods

Overloaded methods

continue

timerContinue Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m) 
=> Timer

timer: a Timer.

-> m () 

Resumes a timer that has previously been stopped with timerStop. timerStop must be called before using this function.

Since: 2.4

destroy

timerDestroy Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m) 
=> Timer

timer: a Timer to destroy.

-> m () 

Destroys a timer, freeing associated resources.

elapsed

timerElapsed Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m) 
=> Timer

timer: a Timer.

-> CULong

microseconds: return location for the fractional part of seconds elapsed, in microseconds (that is, the total number of microseconds elapsed, modulo 1000000), or Nothing

-> m Double

Returns: seconds elapsed as a floating point value, including any fractional part.

If timer has been started but not stopped, obtains the time since the timer was started. If timer has been stopped, obtains the elapsed time between the time it was started and the time it was stopped. The return value is the number of seconds elapsed, including any fractional part. The microseconds out parameter is essentially useless.

isActive

timerIsActive Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m) 
=> Timer

timer: a Timer.

-> m Bool

Returns: True if the timer is running, False otherwise

Exposes whether the timer is currently active.

Since: 2.62

reset

timerReset Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m) 
=> Timer

timer: a Timer.

-> m () 

This function is useless; it's fine to call timerStart on an already-started timer to reset the start time, so timerReset serves no purpose.

start

timerStart Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m) 
=> Timer

timer: a Timer.

-> m () 

Marks a start time, so that future calls to timerElapsed will report the time since timerStart was called. g_timer_new() automatically marks the start time, so no need to call timerStart immediately after creating the timer.

stop

timerStop Source #

Arguments

:: (HasCallStack, MonadIO m) 
=> Timer

timer: a Timer.

-> m () 

Marks an end time, so calls to timerElapsed will return the difference between this end time and the start time.
