class mrpt::system::CTimeLogger
A versatile “profiler” that logs the time spent within each pair of calls to enter(X)-leave(X), among other stats.
The results can be dumped to cout or to Visual Studio’s output panel. This class can be also used to monitorize min/mean/max/total stats of any user-provided parameters via the method CTimeLogger::registerUserMeasure().
Optional recording of all data can be enabled via enableKeepWholeHistory() (use with caution!).
Cost of the profiler itself (measured on MSVC2015, Windows 10, Intel i5-2310 2.9GHz):
enter()
: average 445 nsleave()
: average 316 nsRecursive methods are supported with no problems, that is, calling “enter(X) enter(X) … leave(X) leave(X)”.
enter()
/leave()
are thread-safe, in the sense of they being safe to be called from different threads. However, callingenter()
/leave()
for the same user-supplied “section name”, from different threads, is not allowed. In the latter case (and, actually, in general since it’s safer against exceptions), use the RAII helper class CTimeLoggerEntry.
The default behavior is dumping all the information at destruction.

Methods
std::string getStatsAsText(size_t column_width = 80) const
Dump all stats to a multi-line text string.
See also:
dumpAllStats, saveToCVSFile
void getStats(std::map<std::string, TCallStats>& out_stats) const
Returns all the current stats as a map: section_name => stats.
See also:
getStatsAsText, dumpAllStats, saveToCVSFile
void dumpAllStats(size_t column_width = 80) const
Dump all stats through the COutputLogger interface.
See also:
getStatsAsText, saveToCVSFile
void clear(bool deep_clear = false)
Resets all stats.
By default (deep_clear=false), all section names are remembered (not freed) so the cost of creating upon the first next call is avoided.
By design, calling this method is the only one which is not thread safe. It’s not made thread-safe to save the performance cost. Please, ensure that you call clear()
only while there are no other threads registering annotations in the object.
void saveToCSVFile(const std::string& csv_file) const
Dump all stats to a Comma Separated Values (CSV) file.
See also:
void saveToMFile(const std::string& m_file) const
Dump all stats to a Matlab/Octave (.m) file.
See also:
void enter(const std::string_view& func_name)
Start of a named section.
See also:
double leave(const std::string_view& func_name)
End of a named section.
Returns:
The ellapsed time, in seconds or 0 if disabled.
See also:
double getMeanTime(const std::string& name) const
Return the mean execution time of the given “section”, or 0 if it hasn’t ever been called “enter” with that section name.
double getLastTime(const std::string& name) const
Return the last execution time of the given “section”, or 0 if it hasn’t ever been called “enter” with that section name.
