Classes

Defined in namespace std::chrono
duration (C++11)	a time interval (class template)
system_clock (C++11)	wall clock time from the system-wide realtime clock (class)
steady_clock (C++11)	monotonic clock that will never be adjusted (class)
high_resolution_clock (C++11)	the clock with the shortest tick period available (class)
time_point (C++11)	a point in time (class template)
treat_as_floating_point	indicates that a duration is convertible to duration with different tick period (class template)
duration_values	constructs zero, min, and max values of a tick count of given type (class template)
Convenience Typedefs
Defined in namespace std::chrono
std::chrono::nanoseconds	duration type with Period std::nano
std::chrono::microseconds	duration type with Period std::micro
std::chrono::milliseconds	duration type with Period std::milli
std::chrono::seconds	duration type with Period std::ratio<1>
std::chrono::minutes	duration type with Period std::ratio<60>
std::chrono::hours	duration type with Period std::ratio<3600>
Specializations
Defined in namespace std
std::common_type<std::chrono::duration>	specializes the std::common_type trait (class template specialization)
std::common_type<std::chrono::time_point>	specializes the std::common_type trait (class template specialization)

Functions

Duration
Defined in namespace std::chrono
operator+operator-operator*operator/operator%	implements arithmetic operations with durations as arguments (function template)
operator==operator!=operator<operator<=operator>operator>=	compares two durations (function template)
duration_cast	converts a duration to another, with a different tick interval (function template)
Time point
Defined in namespace std::chrono
operator+operator-	modifies the time point by the given duration (function template)
operator==operator!=operator<operator<=operator>operator>=	compares two time points (function template)
time_point_cast	converts a time point to another time point on the same clock, with a different duration (function template)
