Detailed Description

Class to help run loops at a desired frequency.

Definition at line 86 of file rate.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Rate() [1/2]

ros::Rate::Rate ( double  frequency)

Constructor, creates a Rate.

Parameters
frequencyThe desired rate to run at in Hz

Definition at line 77 of file rate.cpp.

◆ Rate() [2/2]

ros::Rate::Rate ( const Duration d)
explicit

Definition at line 83 of file rate.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ cycleTime()

Duration ros::Rate::cycleTime ( ) const

Get the actual run time of a cycle from start to sleep.

Returns
The runtime of the cycle

Definition at line 131 of file rate.cpp.

◆ expectedCycleTime()

Duration ros::Rate::expectedCycleTime ( ) const
inline

Get the expected cycle time – one over the frequency passed in to the constructor.

Definition at line 116 of file rate.h.

◆ reset()

void ros::Rate::reset ( )

Sets the start time for the rate to now.

Definition at line 126 of file rate.cpp.

◆ sleep()

bool ros::Rate::sleep ( )

Sleeps for any leftover time in a cycle. Calculated from the last time sleep, reset, or the constructor was called.

Returns
True if the desired rate was met for the cycle, false otherwise.

Definition at line 89 of file rate.cpp.
