Function Documentation

◆ bj_get_time()

double bj_get_time ( void )

Returns the elapsed time in seconds since Banjo is initialized with bj_begin.

Returns: The current time in seconds as a double-precision value.

See also: bj_get_time_counter, bj_get_time_frequency, bj_sleep

Examples: audio_pcm.c, shaders.c, and time.c.

◆ bj_get_time_counter()

uint64_t bj_get_time_counter ( void )

This function returns a time counter in platform-dependent ticks. To convert the value to seconds, divide it by the result of bj_get_time_frequency or just call bj_get_time.

Returns: The current high-resolution time counter.

See also: bj_get_time, bj_get_time_frequency, bj_sleep

◆ bj_get_time_frequency()

uint64_t bj_get_time_frequency ( void )

This function returns the number of ticks per second of the high-resolution counter. It is used in conjunction with bj_get_time_counter to compute durations.

Returns: The frequency in ticks per second.

See also: bj_get_time, bj_get_time_counter, bj_sleep

◆ bj_sleep()

void bj_sleep ( int milliseconds )

This function puts the current thread to sleep for at least the specified number of milliseconds. The actual sleep duration may be longer depending on system timing.

Parameters

milliseconds The number of milliseconds to sleep.
