No it doesn't... At least not by simply creating an instance of TTimer and hooking up the OnTimer event. This applies to both Console and Service applications under Delphi. The Delphi TTimer, in uses the WM_TIMER Windows message and a Console and Service application don't have a message loop. So to get it to work, you need to implement your own message loop. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12026951/using-vcl-ttimer-in-delphi-console-application http://objectmix.com/delphi/403332-ttimer-service.html Regards, - Graeme - -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://fpgui.sourceforge.net/ -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
