42<p>&quot;How long does my C++ code take to run?&quot;<p>The Boost Timer library
43answers that question and does so portably, with as little as one #include and one
44additional line of code.<p>The Boost Timer library has two distinct sets of
45components:<ul>
46 <li>If you are new to the library, please go directly to the version 2
47 <a href="cpu_timers.html">CPU timers</a> page.</li>
48 <li>If you are interested in
49the original library, now deprecated, read on below.</li>
50 </ul>
51 <h2>
52 <a href="cpu_timers.html">CPU timers</a></h2>
53<p>These version 2 components conform to current Boost practice:</p>
54<ul>
55 <li>The interfaces and their semantics are the same across all platforms.</li>
56 <li>The internal implementation uses operating system specific APIs to achieve
57 higher precision and supply functionality not otherwise available.&nbsp; </li>
58 <li>The headers live in a sub-directory, <code>&lt;boost/timer/...&gt;</code>.</li>
59 <li>The content is in a sub-namespace, <code>boost::timer</code>.</li>
60</ul>
61<h2 dir="ltr">
62 <a href="original_timer.html">Original timers</a></h2>
63<p>These version 1 components are deprecated. They date from the earliest days
64of Boost and do not conform to current Boost practice:</p>
65<ul>
66 <li>The interfaces are the same across all platforms, but the semantics differ
67 according to platform. Wall-clock time is measured on Windows, while CPU time
68 is measured on POSIX-like systems.</li>
69 <li>The internal implementation uses only C/C++ standard library functions, so
70 cannot supply desirable precision and functionality.</li>
71 <li>The headers live in the main Boost header directory.</li>
72 <li>The content are in namespace <code>boost</code>.</li>
73</ul>
