Description

Assignee: Ankit Aggarwal

If you take a look into Proton how pn_proactor_now_64 is implemented, you will see there are actually three implementations that are used depending on platform. One of the implementations is a Windows one, btw ;P

This is part of solving the issue "[Qpid-dispatch] timespec not defined on Windows" described at http://qpid.2158936.n2.nabble.com/Qpid-dispatch-timespec-not-defined-on-Windows-td7642532.html

See discussion "C types for timestamps and durations" for more background http://qpid.2158936.n2.nabble.com/C-types-for-timestamps-and-durations-td7682395.html
