Ns_ScheduleProc

Overview

Schedule a procedure to run at specified intervals

Syntax

    int Ns_ScheduleProc(
    	void (*proc) (),
    	void  *context,
    	int    fNewThread,
    	int    interval
    );

Description

The Ns_ScheduleProc function schedules the procedure proc to be run every interval seconds, with context as an argument. The flag fNewThread determines whether proc runs in its own thread. Ns_ScheduleProc returns an integer id for use in the Ns_UnscheduleProc function.

Note that the newer Ns_ScheduleProcEx function provides a superset of the functionality in Ns_ScheduleProc.
