Detailed Description

Class to help run loops at a desired frequency. This version always uses wall-clock time.

Definition at line 92 of file rate.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ros::WallRate::WallRate ( double frequency )

Constructor, creates a Rate.

Parameters

frequency The desired rate to run at in Hz

Definition at line 103 of file rate.cpp.

ros::WallRate::WallRate ( const Duration & d )

explicit

Definition at line 109 of file rate.cpp.

WallDuration ros::WallRate::cycleTime ( ) const

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

Definition at line 156 of file rate.cpp.

WallDuration ros::WallRate::expectedCycleTime ( ) const

inline

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

Definition at line 122 of file rate.h.

void ros::WallRate::reset ( )

Sets the start time for the rate to now.

Definition at line 151 of file rate.cpp.

bool ros::WallRate::sleep ( )

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

Returns: Passes through the return value from WallDuration::sleep() if it slept, false otherwise.
