## Types

### TimeDiff

typedef Timestamp::TimeDiff TimeDiff;

## Constructors

### Timespan

Timespan();

Creates a zero Timespan.

### Timespan

Timespan(
TimeDiff microseconds
);

Creates a Timespan.

### Timespan

Timespan(
const Timespan & timespan
);

Creates a Timespan from another one.

### Timespan

Timespan(
long seconds,
long microseconds
);

Creates a Timespan. Useful for creating a Timespan from a struct timeval.

Timespan(
int days,
int hours,
int minutes,
int seconds,
int microseconds
);

Creates a Timespan.

## Destructor

### ~Timespan

~Timespan();

Destroys the Timespan.
