From a2f673ccaff7d6562c58cf2453ffd6afb86031fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathias Gumz <akira at fluxbox dot org> Date: Tue, 19 Jan 2010 20:19:45 +0100 Subject: optimization of how often fluxbox checks for the system time to display it in the clocktool the idea (as a first patch) for this change was provided by Thomas Habets (thomas at habets pp se). instead of having a fixed interval each second, we now calculate the next point in time based upon the format string used by the clocktool to render the time. as long as no seconds are shown fluxbox now wakes up once every minute. --- src/ClockTool.cc | 50 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 46 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/ClockTool.cc b/src/ClockTool.cc index 1dd07cd..5892abe 100644 --- a/src/ClockTool.cc +++ b/src/ClockTool.cc @@ -47,6 +47,48 @@ #include <sys/time.h> #include <typeinfo> + +namespace { + +/** + * return true if clock shows seconds.
