- ctimer.o 1.00
- -------------
-
- ctimer.o offers you functions similar to exec/Signal(),
- exec/PutMsg() and exec/Wait() except that they are "timed".
- That means that the PutMsg() or Signal() command will take part
- after a given time has passed by or that Wait() will wait for some
- signals only for a given time.
- These functions are useful for all operations that should be
- delayed or shouldn't block your process forever (as a Wait() to a
- signal that never appears ;^)
-
- You can do the following:
-
- Inform sub-process to do anything after 10s:
- ctimerPutMsg(Port,Msg,"timer",your_value * 10);
- etc.
