TwinTimerLib Package

Author: Krool. Version: 1.0.7.0

The TwinTimerLib contributed package provides a Win32-backed timer class that fires a Timer event at a repeating interval and reports the total elapsed time in milliseconds. Unlike the built-in VB Timer control, TwinTimer does not require a form or control container and can be instantiated from any module.

Classes

• TwinTimer – a timer class that fires a Timer event at a repeating interval and reports the total elapsed time in milliseconds since the first event
  • Enabled – returns or sets a value that determines whether the timer responds to elapsed-interval events
  • Interval – returns or sets the number of milliseconds between successive Timer events
  • Timer – occurs when the preset interval for a TwinTimer has elapsed

Test cases

The notes and warnings of this section are checked by the test cases in TwinTimerLib-tests.twinproj, a twinBASIC project. It uses TwinTimerLib as a linked package: put the package’s .twinpack in %APPDATA%\twinBASIC\packages, then run the project, and each case prints whether it passes.
