setitimer()函数使用

setitimer()为Linux的API,并非C语言的Standard Library,setitimer()有两个功能,一是指定一段时间后,才执行某个function,二是每间格一段时间就执行某个function,以下程序demo如何使用setitimer()。

/*
Filename : timer.cpp Description : setitimer() set the interval to run function Synopsis : #include <sys/time.h> int setitimer(int which, const struct itimerval *value, struct itimerval *ovalue); struct itimerval { struct timerval it_interval; struct timerval it_value; }; struct timeval { long tv_sec; long tv_usec; }
*/ #include <stdio.h> // for printf() #include <unistd.h> // for pause() #include <signal.h> // for signal() #include <string.h> // for memset() #include <sys/time.h> // struct itimeral. setitimer() void printMsg(int); int main() { // Get system call result to determine successful or failed
int res = ; // Register printMsg to SIGALRM
signal(SIGALRM, printMsg); struct itimerval tick; // Initialize struct
memset(&tick, , sizeof(tick)); // Timeout to run function first time
tick.it_value.tv_sec = ; // sec tick.it_value.tv_usec = ; // micro sec. // Interval time to run function
tick.it_interval.tv_sec = ; tick.it_interval.tv_usec = ; // Set timer, ITIMER_REAL : real-time to decrease timer, // send SIGALRM when timeout res = setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, &tick, NULL);
if (res) { printf("Set timer failed!!/n"); } // Always sleep to catch SIGALRM signal while() { pause(); } return ;
} void printMsg(int num) { printf("%s","Hello World!!/n"); }

当setitimer()所执行的timer时间到了,会呼叫SIGALRM signal,itimerval.it_value设定第一次执行function所延迟的秒数, itimerval.it_interval设定以后每几秒执行function,所以若只想延迟一段时间执行function,只要设定 itimerval.it_value即可,若要设定间格一段时间就执行function,则it_value和it_interval都要设定,否则 funtion的第一次无法执行,就别说以后的间隔执行了。
