Detailed Description

Synchronized sleeping.

This class can be used to execute a piece of code in fixed intervals. Here's a simple example where a loop cycle is executed every 100ms:

const long loopCycleUs = 100*1000;//100ms
Radiant::SleepSync sleep;
while (true) {
   sleep.resetTiming();

   // do something that differs in length between [0..loopCycleUs]
   // ...

   sleep.sleepSynchroUs(loopCycleUs);
}
