How can I update my NSTimer as I change the value of the time interval

Question

I have an NSTtimer implemented and it's working fine. I also have the time interval argument connected to a UISlider for the iPhone. However when I change it's value the NSTimer is still running at the original time interval it does not get updated. How can I implement an NSTimer and have it change it's time interval as the value of my UISlider changes. Below is the line I am using for the NSTimer.

[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:mySlider.value target:self selector:@selector(myMethod) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];

I want it to constantly update it time interval with the value of the UISlider

You can't I'm afraid. Invalidate it with:

[myTimer invalidate];

Then create a new one with the new time. You may have to set it to nil first as well.

myTimer = nil;
myTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:mySlider.value target:self selector:@selector(myMethod) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
