DESCRIPTION

0.1.2 (current version)

System Posix Clock

1.0.0 (future projection)

System Clock Posix Clock Windows Clock

CONSIDERATIONS

→ Implement System.Windows.Clock using QueryPerformanceCounter, GetTickCount64, etc. and export a common interface in another module System.Clock

→ System.Posix.Clock: getRes has type 'Clock → IO TimeSpec' discuss changing this to 'Clock → TimeSpec' with other haskell developers or read the IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 thoroughly and decide on what to do.

→ System.Posix.Clock: move to a more flexible clock_id representation so that we can get the process/thread cpu-time for not just the caller but any process/thread for which we can obtain a correspoinding clock_id

→ Namespaces: use *.Clocks instead of *.Clock?

KNOWN ISSUES

→ namespace(s) have not been confirmed final.

→ posix-only: windows implementation to be added later.

→ no tests.
