Re: Hold the timer tick event before processing - C# Discussion Boards

The way to stop your numbers from repeating is to build a list of numbers ( so, from 100 to 500 ), then generate random numbers, the first would be between 0 and 399. Then you grab the number at that index in your list, and remove it. So, every time, the maximum value for your random number goes down by one ( use the Count property of the list for this ).

Sir thanks for suggestion.

It's incredibly straightforward, do you own any C# books ? You should buy one and work through it.

The steps are

List<int> list = new List<int>();

for(int 100;n<=500;++n)
{
list.Add(n);
}

Then when you want a number, generate a randon number between 0 and list.Count - 1. Grab that value and then remove it from the list.

Hi all,

I used the Timer class to make a tick event in specific interval, in my C# .Net service. My attempt as follows.

private System.Timers.Timer TimerTicker = null;
public RfService()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    const double INTERVAL = 10000;

    TimerTicker = new System.Timers.Timer( INTERVAL );
    TimerTicker.Elapsed += new ElapsedEventHandler( this.ServiceTimer_Tick );
}

Here, ServiceTimer_Tick() do my processing part.

My question is this. Immediately after starting my service start to count the tick on each 10 seconds and do the processing. That's fine, and work it well.

But, I want to hold the tick for 2 minutes immediately after starting the service and then do the 10 seconds interval process. That mean only the first time I want to hold the tick for 2 minutes.

I think it is clear for you. How can I do this. I'm really new for C#. Specially on threading, because I found that using threading I can do that.... Smile | :)

Thanks

I appreciate your help all the time...

It's pretty straightforward. Set the interval to whatever you want it to be for the first tick, and in ServiceTimer_Tick, set the interval property of the timer to whatever you want it to be afer that.

If I get you correctly, you ask me to use two tick event. Yes I think that. But one of tick event execute only one time, stop it after 2 minute.

And also I do all those things in constructor method. Frown | :(

No, not even remotely.

The timer has an interval property. Inside your tick event, set the Interval property to the value you want it to be after the first time it fires.

All I am suggesting is you do something like

Timer.Interval = 2000; // 2 seconds

inside the tick event.

Ok, I got the point and I'll try it now.
