Howdy, Hope everyone had a nice weekend.
I'm trying to build a form that has a toggle-like button. Press it once, and a method fires that begins to call a webservice API (written in Python). This process should continue until the webservice returns with, "Suspended" or "Closed". Or, and this is a big OR, the user clicks the toggle button again and the method should stop running. So, should I put a timer on the form and call it every 10 seconds or so (NB: one "call" to the webservice can take 5-8secs)? Does the timer interval have to be greater that the time it takes to make one call, or does the timer fire anyway once it receives focus again? What function do you use to poll for a mouseclick\keypress?: i.e. inkey()? Can anyone suggest a better way? Many thanks, Garry _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
