.SH NAME
libsimple_cmptimespec, libsimple_cmptimeval \- calculate the sum of two durations

.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <libsimple.h>

inline int libsimple_cmptimespec(const struct timespec *\fIa\fP, const struct timespec *\fIb\fP);
inline int libsimple_cmptimeval(const struct timeval *\fIa\fP, const struct timeval *\fIb\fP);

.PP
Link with
.IR \-lsimple .

.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR libsimple_cmptimespec ()
and
.BR libsimple_cmptimeval ()
functions compares the values of
.I a
and
.IR b ,
returning a value indicating which is larger, if any.

.SH RETURN VALUE
The
.BR libsimple_cmptimespec ()
and
.BR libsimple_cmptimeval ()
functions return \-1 if
.I a
is less than
.IR b ,
+1 if
.I a
is greater than
.IR b ,
and 0 otherwise.

.SH ERRORS
The
.BR libsimple_cmptimespec ()
and
.BR libsimple_cmptimeval ()
functions cannot fail.
