Method new_with_paths

clock-bound/src/client.rs:58–79

Creates and returns a new `ClockBoundClient`. The client accesses two shared memory segments. One written to by the ClockBound daemon. The second one by the VMClock device (if available). Explicitly specifies the paths to the two shared memory segments. # Errors Returns [`ClockBoundError`] if the shared memory segments cannot be open or accessed.
