How to looping with Timer?

[Davaa]

Dear all,
I am a student making a MS Form application in C++. I would ask a question about "Timer". Sample code which I am developing is below.

private: System::Void buttonStart_Cli ck(System::Obje ct^ sender, System::EventAr gs^ e){
for (int i=1; i<=10; i++){
String^ strValue;
FunctionName(&s trValue);
int interval=1000; // time interval of looping equal to 1s
SetTimer(timer1 , interval, NULL);
do {
this->textBox->Text = strValue;
}
while(TimerFlag = 0);
TimerFlag = 0;
}

private: System::Void FunctionName(St ring^ *strValue){
*strValue = "Something which could change in each time of above looping";
}

private: System::Void OnTimer(int timerId){
if(timerId = 1){
TimerFlag = 1;
HWND hwnd = NULL;
KillTimer(timer 1);
}
}
...

Compiling errors are
1. SetTimer doesn't take 3 arguments
2. Kill timer doesn't take 1 arguments

How should I input the arguments and how should I correctly looping with 1s interruption? Please help me!

Thank you very much in advance.

If you are free to use any libraries then try to use ACE.
It has a timer also in it...

while(TimerFlag = 0);

This will always fail to execute as

TimerFlag = 0

will always be false.

if(timerId = 1)

This line isuseless unless you actually want to assing 1 to timerId, but the braces and the if are not neccessary.

I think you stick with the basics for now.

You need to get with your instructor and let him or her know you need some one on one time with a tutor.

Somethings are quicker when your not strugling with the slow communication of the internet.

Also, a tutor can see whether this code took you a few seconds to write or a few days, and they can imediately address the areas that you should be focusing on.

if( SomeValue == 1) 

Notice the second '='?
