* A simple interface for measuring time intervals. An instance of this goes
|
|
* through the following lifecycle states:
|
|
* <DL>
|
|
* <DT> <EM>ready</EM>
|
|
* <DD> timer is ready to start a new measurement
|
|
* <DT> <EM>started</EM>
|
|
* <DD> timer has recorded the starting time interval point
|
|
* <DT> <EM>stopped</EM>
|
|
* <DD> timer has recorded the ending time interval point
|
|
* </DL>

|
* See individual methods for details.<P>

|
* If this library has been compiled with {@link ITimerConstants#DO_STATE_CHECKS}
|
|
* set to 'true' the implementation will enforce this lifecycle model and throw

* IllegalStateException when it is violated.
