Function glib::source::timeout_source_new

pub fn timeout_source_new<F>(
    interval: Duration, 
    name: Option<&str>, 
    priority: Priority, 
    func: F
) -> Source where
    F: FnMut() -> Continue + Send + 'static, 

Adds a closure to be called by the main loop the returned Source is attached to at regular intervals with millisecond granularity.

func will be called repeatedly every interval milliseconds until it returns Continue(false). Precise timing is not guaranteed, the timeout may be delayed by other events. Prefer timeout_add_seconds when millisecond precision is not necessary. Creates a new timeout source.

The source will not initially be associated with any MainContext and must be added to one with g_source_attach() before it will be executed.

The interval given is in terms of monotonic time, not wall clock time. See monotonic_time().

interval

the timeout interval in milliseconds.

Returns

the newly-created timeout source
