Timer Control

I have a timer control in a NT service project.
I set the the Enable property of the timer to TRUE in the Constructor of my
class.

The tick event never gets fired when I debug my NT service (I do attach the
process to debug it)
Am I doing anything wrong ?

NT service project
OnStart event I log into the event log, it gets logged.
I also log in my Ctor .... that gets logged.
I have a break point in the tick event of the timer as well as an eventlog,
neither an event gets logged neither the debugger breaks at the breakpoint.

Which Timer class are you using, for services you should be using
System.Timers.T imer class.

Hi all, I have developed a windows service using the windows service project template in VS.NET. I have used three controls in the service, a timer, performance counter and a message queue control. The service will "sleep" for 'n' seconds using the timer control and whenever the timer_elapsed event occurs, I use the performance counter object to determine availability of few resources. Based on the availability of resources, I use the...

I have a timer on a form. It isn't firing at all. I know that the timer is enabled, and that the interval is low (4000, which should be 4 seconds). To ensure the timer wasn't being inadvertantly reset I put some extra code in the subs that enable and disable the timer. They fire as expected. To test this I added a second timer with a 1 second interval. The event for this time would output the enabled status of the first timer and its...

Hello, Wow...I have one for you all and hopefully I am not understanding this timer object correctly. I have a timer setup that pulses a connection through a socket every 60 seconds. But it seems recently connections just drop off because the timer stops firing. My question is if there is a timeout in the timer event that just shuts down the call if the timer event is taking too long to complete...?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
