class Timer {
  // Interface to time and timer functionality.
  //
  // Each `Timer` may have a different origin, and some `Timer`s may in fact tick at a different
  // rate than real time (e.g. a `Timer` could represent CPU time consumed by a thread).  However,
  // all `Timer`s are monotonic: time will never appear to move backwards, even if the calendar
  // date as tracked by the system is manually modified.

public:
  virtual TimePoint now() = 0;
  // Returns the current value of a clock that moves steadily forward, independent of any
  // changes in the wall clock. The value is updated every time the event loop waits,
  // and is constant in-between waits.

  virtual Promise<void> atTime(TimePoint time) = 0;
  // Returns a promise that returns as soon as now() >= time.

  virtual Promise<void> afterDelay(Duration delay) = 0;
  // Equivalent to atTime(now() + delay).

  template <typename T>
  Promise<T> timeoutAt(TimePoint time, Promise<T>&& promise) KJ_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT;
  // Return a promise equivalent to `promise` but which throws an exception (and cancels the
  // original promise) if it hasn't completed by `time`. The thrown exception is of type
  // "OVERLOADED".

  // implementation -- to tell it when time has advanced.

  Maybe<TimePoint> nextEvent();
  // Returns the time at which the next scheduled timer event will occur, or null if no timer
  // events are scheduled.

  Maybe<uint64_t> timeoutToNextEvent(TimePoint start, Duration unit, uint64_t max);
  // Convenience method which computes a timeout value to pass to an event-waiting system call to
  // cause it to time out when the next timer event occurs.
  //
  // `start` is the time at which the timeout starts counting. This is typically not the same as
  // now() since some time may have passed since the last time advanceTo() was called.
  //
  // `unit` is the time unit in which the timeout is measured. This is often MILLISECONDS. Note
  // that this method will fractional values *up*, to guarantee that the returned timeout waits
  // until just *after* the time the event is scheduled.
  //
  // The timeout will be clamped to `max`. Use this to avoid an overflow if e.g. the OS wants a
  // 32-bit value or a signed value.
  //
  // Returns nullptr if there are no future events.

  void advanceTo(TimePoint newTime);
  // Set the time to `time` and fire any at() events that have been passed.
