Timer event

[yhlove]

Hi

I want to use a timer in my project so I would be able to set it's
value and able to handle the timer event. how can I do that?

(for those whi fimiliar with linux systems: I'm looking for somthing
like the signal SIGTERM and the function alarm(int sec). with that
function you can set the timer to x seconds and after that time your
process will get the signal SIGTERM and then you can handle it and
refresh the timer again...)

Thanks
Yhlove

In my idea does the most simple one

Windows.forms.timer what you want.

Beside that there are 2 other times and some stopwatches, however as I
understood your problem well than the one above fits. (The other ones are
for multithreading on the non UI thread and for Windows Services).
