NAME
Time - Pluggable time API
SYNOPSIS
use Time; # installs CORE::GLOBAL time & sleepDESCRIPTION
This module insert a level of indirection between the actually hardware-level time and the time as seen by the current process.
An attempt is made to avoid any assumptions about how time is represented and what is its available precision.
New functions are installed into both CORE::GLOBAL::time and CORE::GLOBAL::sleep. This causes any perl module that makes use of time or sleep to get the definitions installed by Time instead of CORE::time or CORE::sleep.
There is also a C-API available for customizing the passage of time.
SUPPORT
This extension is discussed on the perl-loop@perl.org mailing list.
