convertToCoreTime

SimTime_t convertToCoreTime (SimTime_t time);

This function converts from the local view of time to the count in the global view. For example, if a local component counts time in 1ns quanta and its time is 250, the function would return 250,000 if the core time base was 1ps (250ns * 1000 = 250,000ps). This function is used in Links when adding extra latency (specified in the local view of time) on an event send.

Parameters​

  • time (SimTime_t) Local time to convert to core time
  • returns (SimTime_t) Converted core time

Example​

void example::exampleClockHandler(Cycle_t cycle) 
{
    out->output("My clock is at cycle %" PRIu64 " which is %" PRIu64 " in the core time base units.\n",
        cycle, clockTimeConverter->convertToCoreTime(cycle));
}
