getTimeServer() return less than zero value

Options
Hello. I use c++ SDK for creating master server. I got demo loadBalancing from c++ SDK as base.
My application(server) are multithread. In first thread running event-loop(based on libev). Second thread are using for creating rooms. I read getTimeServer every 100ms and if returned value less than zero I run fetchTimeOffset(). And everytime this function return less zero value.
This is log:

    Hi @angelskieglazki.

    There is nothing wrong with negative timestamp values. They are perfectly valid. It is pointless to re-fetch the server time because of it being negative and it won't make it become positive, no matter how often you do it.
    The timestamp is a signed 32bit integer, which overflows every about 45 days and which reaches the highest positive value after about 22.5 days and then continues with the negative values for the next 22.5 days, until it reaches 0 again.
  • @Kaiserludi thankyou so much!
