typedef void(* RtTimer::RtTimerCallback)(double delta, double timeStamp, void *userData) |
User callback function type definition.
This is the function prototype for the event callback that will be invoked periodically by the timer.
delta | time in milliseconds since the last timer event | |
timeStamp | time in millisecods since the timer was started | |
userData | pointer provided in setCallback() |
void RtTimer::setCallback | ( | RtTimerCallback | callback, | |
void * | userData = 0 | |||
) |
Sets a callback function to be invoked for timer events.
The callback function will be called whenever the timer expires.
callback | funcion to handle the timer events | |
userData | pointer that will be passed to the callback |
void RtTimer::cancelCallback | ( | ) |
Cancel use of the current callback function (if one exists).
Subsequent timer events will be lost.
void RtTimer::start | ( | unsigned int | period | ) |
Starts the periodic timer.
period | time given in millisecods |
void RtTimer::stop | ( | void | ) |
Stops the periodic timer.
It stops the timer if running. Does nothing otherwise.
double RtTimer::getTimestamp | ( | ) |
Returns the current timestamp.
This funcion returns the elapsed time in milliseconds since the first timer event after calling start().
