1 简介
实现定时器事件,每隔一个时间后触发事件。
需要注意常用的有两个计时器,一个是System.Timers.Timer,另一个常用的是 System.Windows.Forms.Timer。这两个定时器有很大的形似性。但是要注意,如果是Forms程序,用到控件时要选Forms.Timer,否则更新控件时会出现cross multithread问题,不是一个线程。这里以System.Timers.Timer做原理解说,后面示例代码会贴出两个Timer的。
2.原理
2.1 命名空间
using System.Timers;
2.2 声明定时器
private Timer aTimer;
2.3 实例化定时器并设置属性
// Create a timer and set a two second interval.
aTimer = new System.Timers.Timer();
aTimer.Interval = 2000;
// Hook up the Elapsed event for the timer.
aTimer.Elapsed += OnTimedEvent;
// Have the timer fire repeated events (true is the default)
aTimer.AutoReset = true;
// Start the timer
aTimer.Enabled = true;
2.4 事件函数
时间函数的函数名要与注册事件语句中的函数名要一致。
private static void OnTimedEvent(Object source, System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs e)
{
Console.WriteLine("The Elapsed event was raised at {0}", e.SignalTime);
}
3.代码示例
3.1 System.Timers.Timer实例
using System;
using System.Timers;
public class Example
{
private static Timer aTimer;
public static void Main()
{
// Create a timer and set a two second interval.
aTimer = new System.Timers.Timer();
aTimer.Interval = 2000;
// Hook up the Elapsed event for the timer.
aTimer.Elapsed += OnTimedEvent;
// Have the timer fire repeated events (true is the default)
aTimer.AutoReset = true;
// Start the timer
aTimer.Enabled = true;
Console.WriteLine("Press the Enter key to exit the program at any time... ");
Console.ReadLine();
}
private static void OnTimedEvent(Object source, System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs e)
{
Console.WriteLine("The Elapsed event was raised at {0}", e.SignalTime);
}
}
// The example displays output like the following:
// Press the Enter key to exit the program at any time...
// The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2015 8:48:58 PM
// The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2015 8:49:00 PM
// The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2015 8:49:02 PM
// The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2015 8:49:04 PM
// The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2015 8:49:06 PM
3.2 System.Windows.Forms.Timer定时器实例
public class Class1 {
static System.Windows.Forms.Timer myTimer = new System.Windows.Forms.Timer();
static int alarmCounter = 1;
static bool exitFlag = false;
// This is the method to run when the timer is raised.
private static void TimerEventProcessor(Object myObject,
EventArgs myEventArgs) {
myTimer.Stop();
// Displays a message box asking whether to continue running the timer.
if(MessageBox.Show("Continue running?", "Count is: " + alarmCounter,
MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) == DialogResult.Yes) {
// Restarts the timer and increments the counter.
alarmCounter +=1;
myTimer.Enabled = true;
}
else {
// Stops the timer.
exitFlag = true;
}
}
public static int Main() {
/* Adds the event and the event handler for the method that will
process the timer event to the timer. */
myTimer.Tick += new EventHandler(TimerEventProcessor);
// Sets the timer interval to 5 seconds.
myTimer.Interval = 5000;
myTimer.Start();
// Runs the timer, and raises the event.
while(exitFlag == false) {
// Processes all the events in the queue.
Application.DoEvents();
}
return 0;
}
}
