registerTimeBase

// Deprecated, will be replaced in SST 16.0
TimeConverter* registerTimeBase(const std::string& base, bool regAll = true);
// Will replace deprecated function in SST 16.0
TimeConverter registerTimeBase(const std::string& base, bool regAll = true);

Availability: Component, SubComponent, ComponentExtension

Deprecation

Shared TimeConverters returned by SST-Core APIs will be removed in SST 16.0. All functions accepting TimeConverter* now accept TimeConverter instead. Elements using a TimeConverter* returned by SST-Core should create a local non-shared instance as shown:

// Old code
TimeConverter* tc = function_that_returns_tc();
// New code
TimeConverter tc = function_that_returns_tc();

Create a new time base and optionally set it as the default time base for both the (sub)component and its links.

Parameters​

  • base (string) Time base in SI units
  • regAll (bool) Whether this time base should also be used as the (sub)component's and the (sub)component's links' default time base
  • returns (TimeConverter*) A time converter for the new time base

Example​

registerTimeBase("200ms");
