<h2 id="sleep">Sleep</h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>A task for sleeping a short period of time, useful when a build or deployment process requires an
interval between tasks.</p>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<table class="attr">

<p>The sleep time is the sum of specified values, hours, minutes seconds and milliseconds. A
negative value can be supplied to any of them provided the total sleep time is positive</p>
<p>Note that sleep times are always hints to be interpreted by the OS how it feels—small times
may either be ignored or rounded up to a minimum timeslice. Note also that the system clocks often
have a fairly low granularity too, which complicates measuring how long a sleep actually took.</p>
<h3>Examples</h3>
<p>Sleep for about 10 ms.</p>
<pre><sleep milliseconds="10"/></pre>
<p>Sleep for about 2 seconds.</p>
<pre><sleep seconds="2"/></pre>
<p>Sleep for one hour less 59:58, or two seconds again.</p>
<pre><sleep hours="1" minutes="-59" seconds="-58"/></pre>
<p>Sleep for no time at all. This may yield the CPU time to another thread or process.</p>
<pre><sleep/></pre>
