Hi, I am working on a project to automate the calibration tests for some usints at a small local company. Part of the test requires me to issue 3 commands on 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 minutes to check stablility. However, I am also required to do these commands for 10 seconds every minute too. These 10 seconds can be anywhere within eac...

I want some code to be triggered every second. Usually, I'd create a Timer and link to its event. I wondered if there is a better way. Maybe without the requirement to implement IDisposable. Edit: My main concern is LoC. I don't feel like writing an entire class when something along the lines of this could work, too: System.RegisterPer...
In my C# Windows Forms application, I have a user control that contains other controls and does its own logic. One of them is a delayed call (Timer-invoked) that does certain things after the user has finished a keyboard input (live filter text). It accesses the other controls for this, one of them is that text input control. This method...
Is there a way to create a timer (say, to 10 seconds) on a different thread? I mean, I know how to use CreateThread() and I know how to create/use timers. The problem I have is that the new thread cannot receive a callback function. For those that will inevitably ask "why do you want to do this?" the answer is because i have to do it th...

The data is to be refreshed at a specified interval say, 3 seconds. Now the problem that i am facing is that the processing of the data which is to be shown is t...
Hello, I have recently started learning Python and part of the simple app I am making includes a timer with a hh:mm:ss display running in its own thread. Looking around the web I found two ways of implementing this: Using sched.scheduler Using threading.Timer The way I did it looks similar for both implementations: sched: def tic...
I have a program that was built in C++ (MFC, Visual Studio 6.0) several years ago and has been running on a certain Windows machine for quite some time (more than 5 years). The PC was replaced a month ago (the old one died), and since then the program's timing behavior changed. I need help understanding why. The main functionality of th...
Hello, I've been looking into the Timer class (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.timers.timer.aspx), but the thing about the timer is, it's on going. Is there a way to stop it after one go? or after 5 go's? Right now i am doing the following: using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System...
I have been checking out some of the possible timers lately, and the Threading.Timer and Timers.Timer are the ones that look needful to me (since they support thread pooling). I am making a game, and I plan on using all types of events, with different intervals, etc. Which would be the best? ...

I need this actionlistener to start a timer in simulation but I can't figure out how to do it. Code in Class Simulation: public class Simulation{ private static JFram...

Right now, I have code that looks something like this: Timer timer = new javax.swing.Timer(5000, myActionEvent); According to what I'm seeing (and the Javadocs for the Timer class), the timer will wait 5000 milliseconds (5 seconds), fire the action event, wait 5000 milliseconds, fire again, and so on. However, the behavior that I'm tr...
I have a timer that is checking to see if a web page exists every 3 seconds. If the page exists it calls a method, if it doesn't, another method. webReq = WebRequest.Create("websiteaddress") Dim webResponse As HttpWebResponse webMessage = "" 'Get the response.

Hello, I've been looking for a simpler way than Comet or Long-Polling to push some very basic ajax updates to the browser. In my research, I've seen that people do in fact use Javascript timers to send Ajax calls at set intervals. Is this a bad approach? It almost seems too easy. Also consider that the updates I'll be sending are ...
Does a System.Timers.Timer elapse on a separate thread than the thread that created it? Lets say I have a class with a timer that fires every 5 seconds. When the timer fires, in the elapsed method, some object is modified. Lets say it takes a long time to modify this object, like 10 seconds. Is it possible that I will run into thread co...
