Defined in header <chrono>
template< class Dest, class Source > struct clock_time_conversion { };		(since C++20)

std::chrono::clock_time_conversion is a trait that specifies how to convert a std::chrono::time_point of the Source clock to that of the Dest clock. It does so by providing a const-callable operator() that accepts an argument of type std::chrono::time_point<Source, Duration> and returns a std::chrono::time_point<Dest, OtherDuration> that represents an equivalent point in time. The duration of the returned time point is computed from the source duration in a manner that varies for each specialization. clock_time_conversion is normally only used indirectly, via std::chrono::clock_cast.

A program may specialize clock_time_conversion if at least one of the template parameters is a user-defined clock type.

The primary template is an empty struct. The standard defines the following specializations:

template< class Clock > struct clock_time_conversion<Clock, Clock>;	(1)	(since C++20)
template<> struct clock_time_conversion<std::chrono::system_clock, std::chrono::system_clock>;	(2)	(since C++20)
template<> struct clock_time_conversion<std::chrono::utc_clock, std::chrono::utc_clock>;	(3)	(since C++20)
template<> struct clock_time_conversion<std::chrono::system_clock, std::chrono::utc_clock>;	(4)	(since C++20)
template<> struct clock_time_conversion<std::chrono::utc_clock, std::chrono::system_clock>;	(5)	(since C++20)
template< class Clock > struct clock_time_conversion<Clock, std::chrono::system_clock>;	(6)	(since C++20)
template< class Clock > struct clock_time_conversion<std::chrono::system_clock, Clock>;	(7)	(since C++20)
template< class Clock > struct clock_time_conversion<Clock, std::chrono::utc_clock>;	(8)	(since C++20)
template< class Clock > struct clock_time_conversion<std::chrono::utc_clock, Clock>;	(9)	(since C++20)

1-3) Identity conversion: operator() returns a copy of the argument.

4-5) Conversions between std::chrono::sys_time and std::chrono::utc_time: operator() calls std::chrono::utc_clock::to_sys and std::chrono::utc_clock::from_sys, respectively.

6-7) Conversions to and from std::chrono::sys_time when Clock supports from_sys and to_sys: operator() calls Clock::to_sys and Clock::from_sys, respectively.

8-9) Conversions to and from std::chrono::utc_time when Clock supports from_utc and to_utc: operator() calls Clock::to_utc and Clock::from_utc, respectively.

Member functions

Each specialization has an implicitly-declared default constructor, copy constructor, move constructor, copy assignment operator, move assignment operator, and destructor.

template< class Duration > auto operator()( const std::chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration>& t ) const         -> decltype(Clock::to_utc(t));	(9)	(member of specialization (9))

Converts the argument std::chrono::time_point to the destination clock.

1-3) Identity conversion. Returns t unchanged.

4) Returns std::chrono::utc_clock::to_sys(t).

5) Returns std::chrono::utc_clock::from_sys(t).

6) Returns Clock::from_sys(t). This overload participates in overload resolution only if the expression Clock::from_sys(t) is well-formed. The program is ill-formed if Clock::from_sys(t) does not return std::chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration> where Duration is some valid specialization of std::chrono::duration.

7) Returns Clock::to_sys(t). This overload participates in overload resolution only if the expression Clock::to_sys(t) is well-formed. The program is ill-formed if Clock::to_sys(t) does not return std::chrono::sys_time<Duration> where Duration is some valid specialization of std::chrono::duration.

8) Returns Clock::from_utc(t). This overload participates in overload resolution only if the expression Clock::from_utc(t) is well-formed. The program is ill-formed if Clock::from_utc(t) does not return std::chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration> where Duration is some valid specialization of std::chrono::duration.

9) Returns Clock::to_utc(t). This overload participates in overload resolution only if the expression Clock::to_utc(t) is well-formed. The program is ill-formed if Clock::to_utc(t) does not return std::chrono::utc_time<Duration> where Duration is some valid specialization of std::chrono::duration.
