ecore_timer_example.c

This example shows how to use timers to have timed events inside ecore.See the example explained.

//Compile with:
// gcc -o ecore_timer_example ecore_timer_example.c `pkg-config --libs --cflags ecore`
#include <Ecore.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#define TIMEOUT_1 1.0 // interval for timer1
#define TIMEOUT_2 3.0 // timer2 - delay timer1
#define TIMEOUT_3 8.2 // timer3 - pause timer1
#define TIMEOUT_4 11.0 // timer4 - resume timer1
#define TIMEOUT_5 14.0 // timer5 - change interval of timer1
#define TIMEOUT_6 18.0 // top timer1 and start timer7 and timer8 with changed precision
#define TIMEOUT_7 1.1 // interval for timer7
#define TIMEOUT_8 1.2 // interval for timer8
#define DELAY_1 3.0 // delay time for timer1 - used by timer2
#define INTERVAL1 2.0 // new interval for timer1 - used by timer5
