tcspc::default_numeric_traits Struct Reference

Description

The default numeric traits.

These numeric traits are the default for the NumericTraits template parameter in most events, processors, and auxiliary objects that require numeric traits.

Custom numeric traits 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_numeric_traits::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_numeric_traits::count_type = u32

Count type.

This is used in events carrying a count of detections.
