26 This class is a skeleton for the interface of a temporal type
27 with a resolution that is higher than a day. It is intended that
28 this class be the base class and that the actual time
29 class be derived using the BN pattern. In this way, the derived
30 class can make decisions such as 'should there be a default constructor'
31 and what should it set its value to, should there be optional constructors
32 say allowing only an time_durations that generate a time from a clock,etc.
33 So, in fact multiple time types can be created for a time_system with
34 different construction policies, and all of them can perform basic
35 operations by only writing a copy constructor. Finally, compiler
36 errors are also shorter.
38 The real behavior of the time class is provided by the time_system
39 template parameter. This class must provide all the logic
40 for addition, subtraction, as well as define all the interface
41 types.
