now
public long now()Description copied from interface:Clock
Returns the current epoch timestamp in nanos from this clock. This timestamp should only be used to compute a current time. To compute a duration, timestamps should always be obtained usingClock.nanoTime()
. For example, this usage is correct.long startNanos = clock.nanoTime(); // Spend time... long durationNanos = clock.nanoTime() - startNanos;
This usage is NOT correct.
long startNanos = clock.now(); // Spend time... long durationNanos = clock.now() - startNanos;
Calling this is equivalent to calling
Clock.now(boolean)
withhighPrecision=true

now
public long now(boolean highPrecision) Description copied from interface:Clock
Returns the current epoch timestamp in nanos from this clock.This overload of
Clock.now()
includes ahighPrecision
argument which specifies whether the implementation should attempt to resolve higher precision at the potential expense of performance. For example, in java 9+ its sometimes possible to resolve ns precision higher than the ms precision ofSystem.currentTimeMillis()
, but doing so incurs a performance penalty which some callers may wish to avoid. In contrast, we don't currently know if resolving ns precision is possible in java 8, regardless of the value ofhighPrecision
.See
Clock.now()
javadoc for details on usage. -
