Interface TimeSource

All Known Implementing Classes:

NTPTimeSource, SystemClockTimeSource

public interface TimeSource

A time source is an abstraction of system time away from the local system clock. Typically it is used in distributed computing settings, to allow for different time implementations, such as NTP over the internet (via NTPTimeSource, local synchronization (LAN only - not implemented), or simply using the standard clock on each machine (System.currentTimeMillis() via SystemClockTimeSource.
