Hi,
Im porting some data recorders from UNIX/LInux to Win32 platform:
https://github.com/kronometrix/recording/blob/master/bin/freebsd/cpurec
Basically Im trying to replicate something like this in Win32, and I
have no idea how I can do that:
use Time::HiRes qw(time alarm setitimer ITIMER_REAL);
use POSIX qw(pause);
# how often do we trigger (seconds)?
my $first_interval = $interval;
# signal handler is empty
local $SIG{ALRM} = sub { };
# first value is the initial wait, second is the wait thereafter
setitimer( ITIMER_REAL, $first_interval, $interval );
while (1) {
### perform work here
### Check for end
last if ++$loop == $loop_max;
### Interval
pause;
}
This implementation allows me to sleep an exact number of seconds on
Linux or UNIX. I have tried Win32::Sleep on Windows but I end up
sleeping more than that. So questions:
1. How one can sleep 60secs no matter what for Win32 platforms ?
2. Is there anything like interval timers and signals for Win32 ? And
how we could do such things in Win32 ?
Many thanks,
