Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Rate() [1/2]

roswrap::Rate::Rate

(

double

frequency

)

Constructor, creates a Rate.

Parameters

frequency

The desired rate to run at in Hz

Rate() [2/2]

roswrap::Rate::Rate ( const Duration &  d )

explicit

Definition at line 83 of file rate.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

cycleTime()

Duration roswrap::Rate::cycleTime

(

)

const

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

Returns

The runtime of the cycle

Definition at line 133 of file rate.cpp.

expectedCycleTime()

Duration roswrap::Rate::expectedCycleTime ( ) const

inline

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

Definition at line 82 of file rate.h.

reset()

void roswrap::Rate::reset

(

)

Sets the start time for the rate to now.

Definition at line 128 of file rate.cpp.

sleep()

bool roswrap::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 91 of file rate.cpp.
