# zx_deadline_after
## NAME
deadline_after - Convert a time relative to now to an absolute deadline
## SYNOPSIS
```
#include <zircon/syscalls.h>
zx_time_t zx_deadline_after(zx_duration_t nanoseconds)
```
## DESCRIPTION
**zx_deadline_after**() is a utility for converting from now-relative durations
to absolute deadlines. If *nanoseconds* plus the current time is bigger than the
maximum value for ``zx_time_t``, the output is clamped to **ZX_TIME_INFINITE**.
## RIGHTS
TODO(ZX-2399)
## RETURN VALUE
**zx_deadline_after**() returns the absolute time (with respect to **CLOCK_MONOTONIC**)
that is *nanoseconds* nanoseconds from now.
## ERRORS
**zx_deadline_after**() does not report any error conditions.
## EXAMPLES
```
// Sleep 50 milliseconds
zx_time_t deadline = zx_deadline_after(ZX_MSEC(50));
zx_nanosleep(deadline);
```
