tcspc::default_data_types Struct Reference

Description

The default data type set.

This data type set is the default for the DataTypes template parameter in most events, processors, and auxiliary objects that require a data type set.

Custom data type sets may (but need not) derive from this type and override some or all of the member type aliases.

Public Types
using	abstime_type = i64
	Absolute time type.
using	bin_index_type = u16
	Type of histogram bin index.
using	bin_type = u16
	Type of histogram bin value (count).
using	channel_type = i32
	Channel number type.
using	count_type = u32
	Count type.
using	datapoint_type = i32
	Type of datapoint for histogramming.
using	difftime_type = i32
	Difference time type.

Member Typedef Documentation

abstime_type

using tcspc::default_data_types::abstime_type = i64

Absolute time type.

The default of i64 is chosen because 64-bit precision is reasonable (32-bit would overflow; 128-bit would hurt performance and is not required for most applications) and because we want to allow negative time stamps.

count_type

using tcspc::default_data_types::count_type = u32

Count type.

This is used in events carrying a count of detections.
