pub fn msg_deadline() -> Option<NonZeroU64>Expand description
Gets the deadline, in nanoseconds since 1970-01-01, after which the caller might stop waiting for a response.
For calls to update methods with best-effort responses and their callbacks,
the deadline is computed based on the time the call was made,
and the timeout_seconds parameter provided by the caller.
In such cases, the deadline value will be converted to NonZeroU64 and wrapped in Some.
To get the deadline value as a u64, call get() on the NonZeroU64 value.
use ic_cdk::api::msg_deadline;
if let Some(deadline) = msg_deadline() {
let deadline_value : u64 = deadline.get();
}For other calls (ingress messages and all calls to query and composite query methods,
including calls in replicated mode), a None is returned.
Please note that the raw msg_deadline system API returns 0 in such cases.
This function is a wrapper around the raw system API that provides more semantic information through the return type.
