IP_PulseTimed
IP_PulseTimed — sets up timers to trigger pulses.
Syntax
#include <cogent.h>
timer_t IP_PulseTimed( | int | pulse, |
| | time_t | init_sec, |
| | time_t | init_nsec, |
| | time_t | interval_sec, |
| | time_t | interval_nsec); |
Arguments
- pulse
- A pulse ID as generated by IP_PulseNew.
- init_sec
- Seconds of delay prior to the first timer
expiry.
- init_nsec
- Nanoseconds of delay prior to the first timer
expiry.
- interval_sec
- Seconds of delay for subsequent timing
intervals.
- interval_nsec
- Nanoseconds of delay for subsequent timing
intervals.
Returns
A timer identifier on success, or
-1 on failure and errno is set.
Description
This function causes a pulse to be triggered after a given number of
init_sec + init_nsec, and then to trigger on a regular interval every
interval_sec + interval_nsec thereafter.
