Detailed Description

Provides a timer executing a block or runnable each time it fires on a given queue.

The default queue for dispatch timers is the global queue.

The timer may have a divergence from the exact interval, the allowed size of this divergence can be influenced by using setLatency().

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QDispatchTimer::QDispatchTimer	(	int	msec,
		QObject *	parent = NULL
	)

Constructs a new timer firing every msec milliseconds.

The timer will be constructed in a stopped state, use start() to launch it.

Remarks:

Never pass a value less than zero here

QDispatchTimer::QDispatchTimer

(

const QDispatchTimer &

)

QDispatchTimer::QDispatchTimer	(	const xdispatch::timer &	,
		QObject *	parent = NULL
	)

QDispatchTimer::~QDispatchTimer

Member Function Documentation

static QDispatchTimer* QDispatchTimer::current

(

)

[static]

Returns:

The timer responsible for the handler to be executed or NULL if the handler was not executed because of a timer firing

Reimplemented from xdispatch::timer.

bool QDispatchTimer::operator==

(

const QDispatchTimer &

)

void QDispatchTimer::setHandler

(

QRunnable *

)

Sets the runnable that will be executed every time the timer fires.

Returns:

The queue the handler will be executed on

void QDispatchTimer::setHandler

(

dispatch_block_t

)

Sets a block that will be executed every time the timer fires.

void QDispatchTimer::setInterval

(

int

msec

)

Changes the interval of the timer to msec.

void QDispatchTimer::setLatency

(

int

usec

)

Sets the latency, i.e.

the divergence the timer may have. Please note that this can only be regarded as a hint and is not garuanted to be followed strictly.

void QDispatchTimer::setQueue

(

const xdispatch::queue &

)

Sets the queue the timer will execute on.

static void QDispatchTimer::singleShot	(	const QTime &	,
		const xdispatch::queue &	,
		QRunnable *
	)		[static]

Creates a single shot timer executing the given runnable on the given queue at the given time.

This is quite similar to using QDispatchQueue::after()

static void QDispatchTimer::singleShot	(	dispatch_time_t	,
		const xdispatch::queue &	,
		dispatch_block_t
	)		[static]

Creates a single shot timer executing the given block on the given queue at the given time.

This is quite similar to using QDispatchQueue::after()

static void QDispatchTimer::singleShot	(	const QTime &	,
		const xdispatch::queue &	,
		dispatch_block_t
	)		[static]

Creates a single shot timer executing the given block on the given queue at the given time.

This is quite similar to using QDispatchQueue::after()

static void QDispatchTimer::singleShot	(	dispatch_time_t	,
		const xdispatch::queue &	,
		QRunnable *
	)		[static]

Creates a single shot timer executing the given runnable on the given queue at the given time.

This is quite similar to using QDispatchQueue::after()

void QDispatchTimer::start

(

)

[slot]

Starts the timer.

Remarks:

A new created timer will be stopped.

Reimplemented from xdispatch::timer.

void QDispatchTimer::stop

(

)

[slot]

Stops the timer.

Remarks:

Calls to start() and stop() need to be balanced

Reimplemented from xdispatch::timer.
