Function core.time.ticksToNSecs

Convenience wrapper around convClockFreq which converts ticks at a clock frequency of MonoTime.ticksPerSecond to nanoseconds.

It's primarily of use when MonoTime.ticksPerSecond is greater than hecto-nanosecond resolution, and an application needs a higher precision than hecto-nanoceconds.

Prototype

long ticksToNSecs(
  long ticks
) pure nothrow @nogc @safe;

Example

auto before = MonoTime.currTime;
// do stuff
auto after = MonoTime.currTime;
auto diffInTicks = after.ticks - before.ticks;
auto diffInNSecs = ticksToNSecs(diffInTicks);
assert(diffInNSecs == convClockFreq(diffInTicks, MonoTime.ticksPerSecond, 1_000_000_000));
