[GnuWin32-Users] newbie question main event loop g_timeout_add_full () for windows ..

[Deepak K. G. N. <dk...@no...>]

Hello List, 

I want to know about the windows functions (any equivalent API in VC++)
similar to g_timeout_add_full (present in glibc) . My application (VC++)
needs to use it. Can anybody tell me, what should i do ?.

Please cc reply to me also as i haven't subscribe the list till now..

FYI the work of function given at following link: -

http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/glib/glib-the-main-event-loop.html#g-
timeout-add-full


g_timeout_add_full ()
Sets a function to be called at regular intervals, with the given priority.
The function is called repeatedly until it returns FALSE, at which point the
timeout is automatically destroyed and the function will not be called
again. The notify function is called when the timeout is destroyed. The
first call to the function will be at the end of the first interval. 
Note that timeout functions may be delayed, due to the processing of other
event sources. Thus they should not be relied on for precise timing. After
each call to the timeout function, the time of the next timeout is
recalculated based on the current time and the given interval (it does not
try to 'catch up' time lost in delays).

Thanks in advance..
