Member Function Documentation

installTimerProc()

virtual bool DefaultTimerManager::installTimerProc ( TimerProc  proc, int32  interval, void *  refCon, const Common::String &  id  )

virtual

Install a new timer callback.

After it has been created, the timer is called every interval microseconds. The timer can be invoked from a separate thread. Hence any timer code should be written following the same safety guidelines as any other threaded code.

Note

Although the interval is specified in microseconds, the actual timer resolution may be lower. In particular, with the SDL backend the timer resolution is 10 ms.

Parameters

proc	Callback.
interval	Interval in which the timer shall be invoked (in microseconds).
refCon	Arbitrary void pointer passed to the timer callback.
id	Unique string ID of the installed timer. Used by the event recorder.

Returns

True if the timer was installed successfully, false otherwise.

Implements Common::TimerManager.

removeTimerProc()

virtual void DefaultTimerManager::removeTimerProc ( TimerProc  proc )

virtual

Remove the given timer callback.

It will not be invoked anymore, and no instance of this callback will be running anymore.

Implements Common::TimerManager.

handler()

void DefaultTimerManager::handler

(

)

Timer callback, to be invoked at regular time intervals by the backend.
