#include <X11/Intrinsic.h>

XtIntervalId XtAppAddTimeOut(XtAppContext app_context, unsigned long interval, XtTimerCallbackProc proc, XtPointer client_data);

void XtRemoveTimeOut(XtIntervalId timer);

ARGUMENTS¶

app_context

Specifies the application context for which the timer is to be set.

client_data

Specifies the argument that is to be passed to the specified procedure when handling the callback.

interval

Specifies the time interval in milliseconds.

proc

Specifies the procedure that is to be called when time expires.

timer

DESCRIPTION¶

The XtAppAddTimeOut function creates a timeout and returns an identifier for it. The timeout value is set to interval. The callback procedure is called when the time interval elapses, and then the timeout is removed.

The XtRemoveTimeOut function removes the timeout. Note that timeouts are automatically removed once they trigger.
