--  Implements Real_Time.Time absolute delays

--  Note: the compiler generates direct calls to this interface, in the
--  processing of time types.

package Ada.Real_Time.Delays is

   function To_Duration (T : Real_Time.Time) return Duration;
   --  Convert Time to Duration

   procedure Delay_Until (T : Time);
   --  Delay until Clock has reached (at least) time T,
   --  or the task is aborted to at least the current ATC nesting level.
   --  The body of this procedure must perform all the processing
   --  required for an abort point.
