C/C++ latency framework API
The C/C++ interface for the latency framework is declared in the header file AP_TimestampSet.h. Plug-ins using the latency framework should include this file and also include the IAF_TimestampConfig.h header file, which declares the timestamp configuration object.
The functions of interest are the following.
addNow
/**
* Add a new index-time pair to the timestamp. The given index and current
* time will be copied into the timestamp. If an element with the same index
* already exists, it will NOT be overwritten.
*
* @param timestamp The AP_TimestampSet instance
* @param index The index of the new element
*/

addTime
/**
* Add a new index-time pair to the timestamp. The given index and time will
* be copied into the timestamp. If an element with the same index already
* exists, it will NOT be overwritten.
*
* @param timestamp The AP_TeimestampSet instance
* @param index The index of the new element
* @param time The time of the new element
*/

replace
/**
* Change the time of an indexed element in the timestamp. If an
* element with the given index already exists, its time will be replaced
* with a copy of the given time. Otherwise, a new element is created
* just as though addTime() had been called.
*
* @param timestamp The AP_TimestampSet instance
* @param index The index of the element to be updated
* @param time The new time for the indexed element

* between an element with a missing time and an element that does not
* exist - NULL will be returned in either case. The returned object
* (if any) must be explicitly deleted by the caller after use.
