Constructors

TimeProvider()

Initializes a new instance of TimeProvider.

Properties

LocalTimeZone	Gets the local time zone according to this TimeProvider's notion of time.
System	Gets a TimeProvider that provides a clock based on UtcNow, a time zone based on Local, a high-performance time stamp based on Stopwatch, and a timer based on Timer.
TimestampFrequency	Gets the frequency of GetTimestamp() as the number of ticks per second.

Methods

CreateTimer(TimerCallback, Object, TimeSpan, TimeSpan)	Creates a new ITimer instance, using TimeSpan values to measure time intervals.
Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
GetElapsedTime(Int64)	Gets the elapsed time since the `startingTimestamp` value was retrieved using GetTimestamp().
GetElapsedTime(Int64, Int64)	Gets the elapsed time between two timestamps retrieved using GetTimestamp().
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetLocalNow()	Gets the current date and time according to this TimeProvider's notion of time based on GetUtcNow(), with the offset set to the LocalTimeZone's offset from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
GetTimestamp()	Gets the current high-frequency value designed to measure small time intervals with high accuracy in the timer mechanism.
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
GetUtcNow()	Gets the current Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) date and time with an offset of zero, according to this TimeProvider's notion of time.
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)

Extension Methods

CreateCancellationTokenSource(TimeProvider, TimeSpan)
Delay(TimeProvider, TimeSpan, CancellationToken)
