Constructor: DelayedTask(action, delayMilliseconds, executingNode)

DelayedTask

task runs code after a given time interval.

DelayedTask(Action action, int delayMilliseconds, IUANode executingNode);

Arguments

action (Action): The method or lambda expression to execute.
periodMilliseconds (int): The time after which the method or lambda expression is executed.
executingNode (IUANode): The node in which the code is ran.

Example

The

myDelayedTask

task runs the

ResetLabelText()

method after 10 seconds (10000 milliseconds). The method cancels the text of the

label1

label.

public override void Start()
{
    myDelayedTask = new DelayedTask(ResetLabelText, 10000, LogicObject);
    myDelayedTask.Start();
}

public override void Stop()
{
    myDelayedTask.Dispose();
}

private void ResetLabelText()
{
    label1.Text = string.Empty;
}

private DelayedTask myDelayedTask;

TIP: In this example, the

ResetLabelText()

method has no

DelayedTask

argument. The simplicity of its code does not require the task to be canceled.

Asynchronous task
