Compares two durations. Let CT be std::common_type<std::chrono::duration<Rep1, Period1>, std::chrono::duration<Rep2, Period2>>::type:

1-2) Checks if lhs and rhs are equal, i.e. the number of ticks for the type common to both durations are equal.

3-6) Compares lhs to rhs, i.e. compares the number of ticks for the type common to both durations.

7) Compares lhs to rhs, i.e. compares the number of ticks for the type common to both durations. The return type is deduced from CT(lhs).count() <=> CT(rhs).count().

The != operator is synthesized from operator==.

(since C++20)

Parameters

lhs	-	duration on the left-hand side of the operator
rhs	-	duration on the right-hand side of the operator

Return value

1) CT(lhs).count() == CT(rhs).count()

2) !(lhs == rhs)

3) CT(lhs).count() < CT(rhs).count()

4) !(rhs < lhs)

5) rhs < lhs

6) !(lhs < rhs)

7) CT(lhs).count() <=> CT(rhs).count()

Example

Run this code

#include <chrono>
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
    if(std::chrono::seconds(2) == std::chrono::milliseconds(2000))
        std::cout <<  "2 s == 2000 ms\n";
    else
        std::cout <<  "2 s != 2000 ms\n";
 
    if(std::chrono::seconds(61) > std::chrono::minutes(1))
        std::cout <<  "61 s > 1 min\n";
    else
        std::cout <<  "61 s <= 1 min\n";
 
 
    using namespace std::chrono_literals;
 
    static_assert(1h == 60min);
    static_assert(1min == 60s);
    static_assert(1s == 1'000ms);
    static_assert(1ms == 1'000us);
    static_assert(1us == 1'000ns);
}

Output:

2 s == 2000 ms
61 s > 1 min
