timer in C

pietro

I wrote a little program that managed a timer.
Since I had the need to use another one within my program I inserted a
new one, but I noticed that the new one didn't start as its
signl_handler didn't start.
Is it possible to manage two or more timer (ITIMER_REAL) in a thread in
C language?

Thank you very much for your help

There are no threads in the ISO standard C language. Find a
newsgroup that deals with your system.

Let me guess: you're writting a program for some kind of Unix. Then
you better go to comp.unix.programmer because that's where this
question is on-topic - setitimer() is a POSIX extensions to the C
language, and since (like treads) it's a system specific extension
you won't get too much help about that here.
