<p>This trait is used by <code>Format</code> to include a timestamp with each <code>Event</code> when it is logged.</p>
<p>Notable default implementations of this trait are <code>SystemTime</code> and <code>()</code>. The former prints the
current time as reported by <code>std::time::SystemTime</code>, and the latter does not print the current
time at all. <code>FormatTime</code> is also automatically implemented for any function pointer with the
appropriate signature.</p>
<p>The full list of provided implementations can be found in <ahref="index.html"title="mod tracing_subscriber::fmt::time"><code>time</code></a>.</p>
