Timer.Change Method

Definition

Changes the start time and the interval between method invocations for a timer.

Overloads

Change(Int32, Int32)

Changes the start time and the interval between method invocations for a timer, using 32-bit signed integers to measure time intervals.

Change(Int64, Int64)

Changes the start time and the interval between method invocations for a timer, using 64-bit signed integers to measure time intervals.

Change(TimeSpan, TimeSpan)

Changes the start time and the interval between method invocations for a timer, using TimeSpan values to measure time intervals.

Change(UInt32, UInt32)

Changes the start time and the interval between method invocations for a timer, using 32-bit unsigned integers to measure time intervals.

Change(Int32, Int32)

Source:
Timer.cs
Source:
Timer.cs

Timer.cs

Changes the start time and the interval between method invocations for a timer, using 32-bit signed integers to measure time intervals.

public:
 bool Change(int dueTime, int period);
public bool Change (int dueTime, int period);
member this.Change : int * int -> bool
Public Function Change (dueTime As Integer, period As Integer) As Boolean

Parameters

dueTime
Int32

The amount of time to delay before the invoking the callback method specified when the Timer was constructed, in milliseconds. Specify Infinite to prevent the timer from restarting. Specify zero (0) to restart the timer immediately.

period
Int32

The time interval between invocations of the callback method specified when the Timer was constructed, in milliseconds. Specify Infinite to disable periodic signaling.

Returns

true if the timer was successfully updated; otherwise, false.

Exceptions

The Timer has already been disposed.

The dueTime or period parameter is negative and is not equal to Infinite.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to start a Timer and, after a set number of invocations, change its period.

using namespace System::Threading;

public:

    // This method is called by the timer delegate.
    void CheckStatus(Object^ stateInfo)
    {
        AutoResetEvent^ autoEvent = dynamic_cast<AutoResetEvent^>(stateInfo);
        Console::WriteLine("{0:h:mm:ss.fff} Checking status {1,2}.",
                           DateTime::Now, ++invokeCount);

        if (invokeCount == maxCount) {
            // Reset the counter and signal the waiting thread.
            invokeCount  = 0;
            autoEvent->Set();
        }

Remarks

The callback method is invoked once after dueTime elapses, and thereafter each time the time interval specified by period elapses.

If dueTime is zero (0), the callback method is invoked immediately. If dueTime is Timeout.Infinite, the callback method is never invoked; the timer is disabled, but can be re-enabled by calling Change and specifying a positive value for dueTime.

If period is zero (0) or Timeout.Infinite, and dueTime is not Timeout.Infinite, the callback method is invoked once; the periodic behavior of the timer is disabled, but can be re-enabled by calling Change and specifying a positive value for period.

The Change method can be called from the TimerCallback delegate.

Remarks

The callback method is invoked once after dueTime elapses, and thereafter each time the time interval specified by period elapses.

If dueTime is TimeSpan.Zero, the callback method is invoked immediately. If dueTime is InfiniteTimeSpan, the callback method is never invoked; the timer is disabled, but can be re-enabled by calling Change and specifying a positive value for dueTime.

If period is TimeSpan.Zero or InfiniteTimeSpan, and dueTime is positive, the callback method is invoked once; the periodic behavior of the timer is disabled, but can be re-enabled by calling Change and specifying a value greater than zero for period.

The Change method can be called from the TimerCallback delegate.

Important

This API is not CLS-compliant.

Changes the start time and the interval between method invocations for a timer, using 32-bit unsigned integers to measure time intervals.

public:
 bool Change(System::UInt32 dueTime, System::UInt32 period);
[System.CLSCompliant(false)]
public bool Change (uint dueTime, uint period);
[<System.CLSCompliant(false)>]
member this.Change : uint32 * uint32 -> bool
Public Function Change (dueTime As UInteger, period As UInteger) As Boolean

Parameters

dueTime
UInt32

The amount of time to delay before the invoking the callback method specified when the Timer was constructed, in milliseconds. Specify Infinite to prevent the timer from restarting. Specify zero (0) to restart the timer immediately.

period
UInt32

The time interval between invocations of the callback method specified when the Timer was constructed, in milliseconds. Specify Infinite to disable periodic signaling.

Returns

true if the timer was successfully updated; otherwise, false.

Attributes

Exceptions

The Timer has already been disposed.

Remarks

The callback method is invoked once after dueTime elapses, and thereafter each time the time interval specified by period elapses.

If dueTime is zero (0), the callback method is invoked immediately. If dueTime is Timeout.Infinite, the callback method is never invoked; the timer is disabled, but can be re-enabled by calling Change and specifying a positive value for dueTime.

If period is zero (0) or Timeout.Infinite, and dueTime is not Timeout.Infinite, the callback method is invoked once; the periodic behavior of the timer is disabled, but can be re-enabled by calling Change and specifying a positive value for period.

The Change method can be called from the TimerCallback delegate.
