Hi there,
I need my application to be notified when it's midnight. How can I do
it? (Someone suggested me to use a timer rising an event every
minute...please, telle me there is some other way!).
Thanks in advance,
Giulio

That's certainly the way I would do it...
What issue do you have with this...?

When you application is started, you could calculate remaining
milliseconds until midnight, and then start a timer with that
calculated value.

The idea to have a timer polling every minute sounds a bit "stressing"
to me... ;-)
But, really, nothing bad with this approach... I was just hoping there
was some system to "hook" the System clock.
Thanks,
Giulio

Has your application anything else to do while waiting for midnight? If not,
just schedule your application to get started at midnight using the system
scheduler.
Willy.
I have implemented several of these type of applications to run throughout
the night. I setup Scheduler with a series of Scheduled tasks and it runs
all the reports and then places them on a network drive for access by
everyone who needs them, and even emails them to alert them that the reports
are now there.

There is - it's called a Timer... :-)

Hi Mark,

The OS is constantly polling things. All things that are clock-based are on
a poll-for-time basis. Even if the OS offered a time-based hook, internally
it would be a poll-for-time implementation.

Could you set up a Scheduled Task to simply run the program at midnight? This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics
