Timed execution of a function
Hi,
sometime back I used open GL on Tru 64, I had used a call to register a function to get executed after some interval. Now I need help on AIX, I need to execute a function after some interval. using pthreads is one alternative I have but need to know is that feature there or not. I found a timeout utility in sys/streams.h, but it is only for _KERNEL...I wonder what should be done if I need timed invocation. Signals & using sigalrm is also a work around. Pls tell me if a function exists which does the sigalrm thing internally....? thanks a lot for all who read .... respond !! |
Not sure, and I don't know AIX nor Tru64, but you may want to check these functions (see their man pages):
sleep(), usleep() or nanosleep() alarm() setitimer() pause() |
