Thanks both of you. Based on timed_wait, I looked at
the boost libraries and
found two candidates in the Thread library:
conditional_varaible::timed_wait
and
thread::sleep_until
which can both take an absolute time. I suppose both should be equally
usable, since again absolute time can be calculated independent of the last
wait/sleep?
Better check how this is implemented. It could just use usleep().
And then all precision is lost, even if the sleep times are adjusted to
compensate for the latency of the previous event.
