Hello everyone,
I'm sure someone has done this before, so I figured I"d ask for advice. I
need to display a "ticking" timer and I'm wondering about event frequency.
I know how to send events, and I know how to handle the screen, but how do I
get an event to process every second. It seems like if I was going to write
code to do this I'd end up filling the message queue with timer messages,
and most of the time the timer code would just exit, until a second actually
passed. This kind of timer would use up 100% CPU time, and make it
difficult to process user input (like clicking a button that closed the
form). What's the "right" way to go about this....
Thanks,
Steve
