clock_id
specifies a kind of clock. It is specified as a constant which begins with Process::CLOCK_
such as Process::CLOCK_REALTIME
and Process::CLOCK_MONOTONIC
.

Note that SUS stands for Single Unix Specification. SUS contains POSIX and clock_gettime
is defined in the POSIX part. SUS defines CLOCK_REALTIME
mandatory but CLOCK_MONOTONIC
, CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID
and CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID
are optional.
Also, several symbols are accepted as clock_id
. There are emulations for clock_gettime
().
For example, Process::CLOCK_REALTIME
is defined as :GETTIMEOFDAY_BASED_CLOCK_REALTIME
when clock_gettime
() is not available.
Emulations for CLOCK_REALTIME
:
Use gettimeofday() defined by SUS. (SUSv4 obsoleted it, though.) The resolution is 1 microsecond.
Use time() defined by ISO C. The resolution is 1 second.
Emulations for CLOCK_MONOTONIC
:
Use mach_absolute_time(), available on Darwin. The resolution is CPU dependent.
Use the result value of times() defined by POSIX. POSIX defines it as “times() shall return the elapsed real time, in clock ticks, since an arbitrary point in the past (for example, system start-up time)”. For example, GNU/Linux returns a value based on jiffies and it is monotonic. However, 4.4BSD uses gettimeofday() and it is not monotonic. (FreeBSD uses clock_gettime
(CLOCK_MONOTONIC
) instead, though.) The resolution is the clock tick. “getconf CLK_TCK” command shows the clock ticks per second. (The clock ticks per second is defined by HZ macro in older systems.) If it is 100 and clock_t is 32 bits integer type, the resolution is 10 millisecond and cannot represent over 497 days.
Emulations for CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID
:
Use getrusage() defined by SUS. getrusage() is used with RUSAGE_SELF to obtain the time only for the calling process (excluding the time for child processes). The result is addition of user time (ru_utime) and system time (ru_stime). The resolution is 1 microsecond.
Use times() defined by POSIX. The result is addition of user time (tms_utime) and system time (tms_stime). tms_cutime and tms_cstime are ignored to exclude the time for child processes. The resolution is the clock tick. “getconf CLK_TCK” command shows the clock ticks per second. (The clock ticks per second is defined by HZ macro in older systems.) If it is 100, the resolution is 10 millisecond.
Use clock() defined by ISO C. The resolution is 1/CLOCKS_PER_SEC. CLOCKS_PER_SEC is the C-level macro defined by time.h. SUS defines CLOCKS_PER_SEC is 1000000. Non-Unix systems may define it a different value, though. If CLOCKS_PER_SEC is 1000000 as SUS, the resolution is 1 microsecond. If CLOCKS_PER_SEC is 1000000 and clock_t is 32 bits integer type, it cannot represent over 72 minutes.
If the given clock_id
is not supported, Errno::EINVAL is raised.
unit
specifies a type of the return value.
number of seconds as a float (default)
number of milliseconds as a float
number of microseconds as a float
number of seconds as an integer
number of milliseconds as an integer
number of microseconds as an integer
number of nanoseconds as an integer
The underlying function, clock_gettime
(), returns a number of nanoseconds. Float
object (IEEE 754 double) is not enough to represent the return value for CLOCK_REALTIME
. If the exact nanoseconds value is required, use :nanosecond
as the unit
.
The origin (zero) of the returned value varies. For example, system start up time, process start up time, the Epoch, etc.
The origin in CLOCK_REALTIME
is defined as the Epoch (1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC). But some systems count leap seconds and others doesn’t. So the result can be interpreted differently across systems. Time.now
is recommended over CLOCK_REALTIME
.

Changes the parameters of the deflate stream to allow changes between different types of data that require different types of compression. Any unprocessed data is flushed before changing the params.

.
Returns last modification time recorded in the gzip file header.
Specify the modification time (mtime
) in the gzip header. Using an Integer
.
Setting the mtime in the gzip header does not effect the mtime of the file generated. Different utilities that expand the gzipped files may use the mtime header. For example the gunzip utility can use the ‘-N` flag which will set the resultant file’s mtime to the value in the header. By default many tools will set the mtime of the expanded file to the mtime of the gzipped file, not the mtime in the header.
If you do not set an mtime, the default value will be the time when compression started. Setting a value of 0 indicates no time stamp is available.
Returns the last access time for this file as an object of class Time
.
File.stat("testfile").atime #=> Wed Dec 31 18:00:00 CST 1969
Returns the modification time of stat.
File.stat("testfile").mtime #=> Wed Apr 09 08:53:14 CDT 2003
Returns the change time for stat (that is, the time directory information about the file was changed, not the file itself).
Note that on Windows (NTFS), returns creation time (birth time).
File.stat("testfile").ctime #=> Wed Apr 09 08:53:14 CDT 2003
Returns true
if stat has its sticky bit set, false
if it doesn’t or if the operating system doesn’t support this feature.
