Detailed Description

Represent a time value, which may be either numeric, holding a double value, or a sentinel value UsdTimeCode::Default().

A UsdTimeCode does not represent an SMPTE timecode, although we may, in future, support conversion functions between the two. Instead, UsdTimeCode is an abstraction that acknowledges that in the principal domains of use for USD, there are many different ways of encoding time, and USD must be able to capture and translate between all of them for interchange, retaining as much intent of the authoring application as possible.

A UsdTimeCode is therefore a unitless, generic time measurement that serves as the ordinate for time-sampled data in USD files. A client of USD relies on the UsdStage (which in turn consults metadata authored in its root layer) to define the mapping of TimeCodes to units like seconds and frames.

See Also: UsdStage::GetStartTimeCode(); UsdStage::GetEndTimeCode(); UsdStage::GetTimeCodesPerSecond(); UsdStage::GetFramesPerSecond()

As described in Usd_ValueResolution , USD optionally provides an unvarying, 'default' value for every attribute. UsdTimeCode embodies a time value that can either be a floating-point sample time, or the default.

All UsdAttribute and derived API that requires a time parameter defaults to UsdTimeCode::Default() if the parameter is left unspecified, and auto-constructs from a floating-point argument.

UsdTimeCode::EarliestTime() is provided to aid clients who wish to retrieve the first authored timesample for any attribute.

Member Function Documentation

static constexpr UsdTimeCode UsdTimeCode::Default ( )

inlinestatic

Produce a UsdTimeCode representing the sentinel value for 'default'.

Note: In inequality comparisons, Default() is considered less than any numeric TimeCode, including EarliestTime(), indicative of the fact that in UsdAttribute value resolution, the sample at Default() (if any) is always weaker than any numeric timeSample in the same layer. For more information, see Usd_ValueResolution

Definition at line 113 of file timeCode.h.

static constexpr UsdTimeCode UsdTimeCode::EarliestTime ( )

inlinestatic

Produce a UsdTimeCode representing the lowest/earliest possible timeCode. Thus, for any given timeSample s, its time ordinate t will obey: t >= UsdTimeCode::EarliestTime()

This is useful for clients that wish to retrieve the first authored timeSample for an attribute, as they can use UsdTimeCode::EarliestTime() as the time argument to UsdAttribute::Get() and UsdAttribute::GetBracketingTimeSamples()

double UsdTimeCode::GetValue ( ) const

inline

Return the numeric value for this time. If this time IsDefault(), return a quiet NaN value.

Definition at line 152 of file timeCode.h.

bool UsdTimeCode::IsDefault ( ) const

inline

Return true if this time represents the 'default' sentinel value, false otherwise. This is equivalent to !IsNumeric().

Definition at line 140 of file timeCode.h.

bool UsdTimeCode::IsEarliestTime ( ) const

inline

Return true if this time represents the lowest/earliest possible timeCode, false otherwise.

Definition at line 134 of file timeCode.h.

bool UsdTimeCode::IsNumeric ( ) const

inline

Return true if this time represents a numeric value, false otherwise. This is equivalent to !IsDefault().

Definition at line 146 of file timeCode.h.

static constexpr double UsdTimeCode::SafeStep	(	double	maxValue = `1e6`,
		double	maxCompression = `10.0`
	)

inlinestatic

Produce a safe step value such that for any numeric UsdTimeCode t in [-maxValue, maxValue], t +/- (step / maxCompression) != t with a safety factor of 2. This is shorthand for std::numeric_limits<double>::epsilon() * maxValue * maxCompression * 2.0. Such a step value is recommended for simulating jump discontinuities in time samples. For example, author value x at time t, and value y at time t + SafeStep(). This ensures that as the sample times are shifted and scaled, t and t + SafeStep() remain distinct so long as they adhere to the maxValue and maxCompression limits.
