Serve timeouts by calling a service-function periodically and an independent time-source (toticker).

If you need a timer and like to try this one, please write your experiences to me in brief! And may be suggestions, of course.

10ms tick time should be possible. May be less.
DO NOT USE Version less 0.1.1 - it is definatly buggy!

Easy to control timers via Handle, eg auto create&start a timer via totimer_setTimeout function.

Optionally use Callback-Functions if timeout expires.

See uws-readme.txt for further info.

Features

  • Additional RAM for each timer possible
  • -- ALPHA state — anyway, should work properly yet -- pls. let me know bugs and suggestions --
  • Independent time-source! Has to be integrated, some examples are included
  • No locks needed - for one-thread systems; may be enhanceable for multithreading
  • Needs not much performance in timeout-service; in timeout-administration it could be enhanced (up to 100 timers seems to be quite ok for all)
  • Configurable: tick-time, max. number of timers, toticker
  • Enhanceable: 4me it seems to be a basis to create an better system like with triggered call of the service-function (event-driven)
