All programs are interactive and utilize a common timer queue +test framework. You can schedule or cancel time events and list all +the timers that are waiting to be triggered. + +The tests include: + +Reactor_Timer_Queue_Test: +------------------------- + +This example shows how to use ACE_Reactor as the timer queue +management mechanism. + +Thread_Timer_Queue_Test: +------------------------ + +This example shows how to use threads as the mechanism to generate +timer queue events. + +Async_Timer_Queue_Test: +----------------------- + +This example shows how to use singals as the mechanism to generate +timer queue events. It doesn't work on NT because of NT's limited +signal mechanism, i.e., no support for SIGALRM. |
