holoscan::TagTime

Represent the deterministic logical order of local activation candidates.

Unlike Tag, TagTime is an ordering coordinate. Valid baseline records order lexicographically by logical_ns and then microstep. The zero record is a valid coordinate; absence, when required by a containing contract, must use a separate validity mechanism. Reserved bits never participate in ordering and must be zero for a baseline-supported record. Ordering remains a strict weak relation for every bit pattern so generic ordered algorithms remain well-defined even when a malformed or future-version record is inspected before validation.

TagTime is a fixed-size, standard-layout, trivially copyable record. It is local ordering evidence, not physical or capture time. It owns no resources, performs no allocation, and is safe to copy, hash, or compare concurrently.

Methods

valid

bool holoscan::TagTime::valid() const noexcept

Return whether this record uses the supported baseline representation.

Returns: true when reserved is zero; otherwise false.
