hi

I want to excute a function for every 5 msec.

i used threads but i had gotten error

please give me a source code to set the timer for 5 msec

what lang?
Show us your code & error msgs.

this is the code i want to excute every 5 msec with signal
but the gdb can't running it a give me an error
please help me



void timer_handler (int signum)
{

RxHdlcPkt();
}

void HardInitTimer(void)
{
struct sigaction sa;
struct itimerval timer;
/* Install timer_handler as the signal handler for SIGVTALRM. */
memset (&sa, 0, sizeof (sa));
sa.sa_handler = &timer_handler;
sigaction (SIGALRM, &sa, NULL);
/* Configure the timer to expire after 1 sec... */
timer.it_value.tv_sec = 0;
timer.it_value.tv_usec = 5000;
/* ... and every 5 msec after that. */
timer.it_interval.tv_sec = 0;
timer.it_interval.tv_usec = 5000;
/* Start a real timer. It counts down whenever this process is
executing. */
setitimer (ITIMER_REAL, &timer, NULL);


}

void InitOS(void)
{


HardInitTimer();
}

Maybe you might want to try using the library sleep() function?

Uh-oh, no you don't -- old eyes did not see "msec;" sorry about that (and all the rest is deleted).

And, later, after actually reading carefully and doing a little research, here's a link to an example program (that works on my Linux machine) that might help point you in the right direction (at least I hope it will help).

Give it a look-see http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iserie...s/getitime.htm

thanks my friend
but i can't find Qp0sDisableSignals or Qp0sEnableSignals functions

can you give me an excutable code for signals please use this functions




thanks
