convert seconds as double to std::chrono::duration?

问题

I'm using c++11 <chrono> and have a number of seconds represented as a double. I want to use c++11 to sleep for this duration, but I cannot fathom how to convert it to a std::chrono::duration object that std::this_thread::sleep_for requires.

const double timeToSleep = GetTimeToSleep();
std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::seconds(timeToSleep));  // cannot convert from double to seconds

I've locked at the <chrono> reference but I find it rather confusing.

Thanks

EDIT:

The following gives error:

std::chrono::duration<double> duration(timeToSleep );
std::this_thread::sleep_for(duration);

the error:

回答1:

Don't do std::chrono::seconds(timeToSleep). You want something more like:

std::chrono::duration<double>(timeToSleep)

Alternatively, if timeToSleep is not measured in seconds, you can pass a ratio as a template parameter to duration. See here (and the examples there) for more information.

回答2:

Making the answer from @Cornstalks a little more generic, you could define a function like this:

template <typename T>
auto seconds_to_duration(T seconds) {
    return std::chrono::duration<T, std::ratio<1>>(seconds);
}

This will convert a seconds value of any primitive type to a chrono duration. Use it like this:

const double timeToSleep = GetTimeToSleep();
std::this_thread_sleep_for(seconds_to_duration(timeToSleep));

回答3:

const unsigned long timeToSleep = static_cast<unsigned long>( GetTimeToSleep() * 1000 );
std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::milliseconds(timeToSleep));

回答4:

std::chrono::milliseconds duration(timeToSleep);
std::this_thread::sleep_for( duration );
