DDS15 — The start time of type Time_t is not defined

Open Closed All
  • Key: DDS15-240
  • Status: open   Implementation work Blocked
  • Source: Airbus Group ( Mr. Oliver M. Kellogg)
  • Summary:

    Section 2.3.2 on page 138 contains:

    The two types used to represent time: Duration_t and Time_t are mapped into structures that contain fields for the second and the nanosecond parts.

    However, the standard does not define the calendar time of Time_t at

    { sec = 0, nanosec = 0 }

    .
    This is required in order to convert a Time_t to/from a system's native time (such the the type time_t on Unix systems which has the calendar start time 1970-01-01 00:00:00).
