[ndnSIM] Converting from nanoseconds to seconds

[Alex Afanasyev]

Hi!

Given nanoseconds-to-seconds conversion includes information truncation, you would need to explicitly specify this intention using duration_cast method (you can check more about duration_cast in Boost.Chrono documentation http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_57_0/doc/html/chrono/users_guide.html <http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_57_0/doc/html/chrono/users_guide.html> or in std::chrono docs http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/chrono/duration/duration_cast <http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/chrono/duration/duration_cast>):

There is also a small problem with your example. time::steady_clock::now() returns a so called “time point” (time duration since some fixed epoch).  More correct example would look similar to:

  ::ndn::time::steady_clock::TimePoint now = ::ndn::time::steady_clock::now();
  ::ndn::time::seconds sec = ::ndn::time::duration_cast<::ndn::time::seconds>(now.time_since_epoch());
