using SetTimer
in [MFC]
|
From: Rick on 28 Feb 2005 02:03 I use extensively the timers in my View mfc application but I find the documentation is not absolutely clear. I use the version with 3 paramteres - the last one is NULL which indicates using the View OnTimer routine. In the documentation it says to use KillTimer with the first parameter being used in the SetTimer function and in some other palce to use it with the return value of SetTimer. Can someone clarify that plaeas? Thanks Rick.

From: Rick on 28 Feb 2005 03:47 Thanks And since I use few timers, what about the timer id being checked inside the OnTimer function for teh code of each one of them - Should I check the paramter SOME_ID or the return value from the SetTimer call?

From: thatsalok on 28 Feb 2005 05:06 Hi Rick Nice to hear from you. OnTimer(UINT nIDEvent) MFc function argument nIDEvent comes with id of Timer which you have set with Setimer. let's understand thats by the Example let you have set the set the timer with ID_SOME_TIMER1, ID_SOME_TIMER2. when ever Windows times Management notify you with timer event through OnTimer(UINT nIdEvent) OnTimer(UINT nIDEvent) { if(nIDEvent== ID_SOME_TIMER) { //Do something for timer ID_SOME_TIMER } else if(nIDEvent== ID_SOME_TIMER1) { //Do something for timer ID_SOME_TIMER1 } } hope now it's clear your doubt -- With Regards Alok Gupta Visit me at http://alok.bizhat.com "I think this will Help" "Rick" <rick(a)cortex.com> wrote in message news:#nSCZJXHFHA.3928(a)TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl... > Thanks > > And since I use few timers, what about the timer id being checked inside the > OnTimer function for teh code of each one of them - Should I check the > paramter SOME_ID or the return value from the SetTimer call? > > Thanks again > > Rick > > "thatsalok" <thatsalok(a)NO_gmail.com_I_DONT_NEED_SPAM> wrote in message > news:OXHlBaWHFHA.3332(a)TK2MSFTNGP15.phx.gbl... > > > > "Rick" <rick(a)cortex.com> wrote in message > > -> I use extensively the timers in my View mfc application but I find > > the > > > documentation is not absolutely clear.

From: Rick on 28 Feb 2005 06:52 Thanks again, Following you previous answer, I looked again in the MSDN help and saw that the SetTimer version with the 3 parameters (I think that it belongs to the CWnd class) - the one that I use, returns the ID number that should be used with KillTimer. As I checked in the debugger it was usually similar to the first argument given to SetTimer but still the example in the MSDN shows the use of the return value as an argument to KillTimer.
