ScheduleOnce(TimeSpan, IRunnable)

Schedules an action to be invoked after a delay. The action is wrapped so that it completes inside the currently active actor if it is called from within an actor. Note! It's considered bad practice to use concurrency inside actors, and very easy to get wrong so usage is discouraged.

Declaration
void ScheduleOnce(TimeSpan delay, IRunnable action)
Parameters
Type Name Description
TimeSpan delay

The time period that has to pass before the action is invoked.
IRunnable action

The action that is being scheduled.

ScheduleOnce(TimeSpan, IRunnable, ICancelable)

Schedules an action to be invoked after a delay. The action is wrapped so that it completes inside the currently active actor if it is called from within an actor. Note! It's considered bad practice to use concurrency inside actors, and very easy to get wrong so usage is discouraged.

Declaration
void ScheduleOnce(TimeSpan delay, IRunnable action, ICancelable cancelable)
Parameters
Type Name Description
TimeSpan delay

The time period that has to pass before the action is invoked.
IRunnable action

The action that is being scheduled.
ICancelable cancelable

A cancelable used to cancel the action from being executed.

ScheduleRepeatedly(TimeSpan, TimeSpan, IRunnable)

Schedules an action to be invoked after an initial delay and then repeatedly. The action is wrapped so that it completes inside the currently active actor if it is called from within an actor. Note! It's considered bad practice to use concurrency inside actors, and very easy to get wrong so usage is discouraged.

Declaration
void ScheduleRepeatedly(TimeSpan initialDelay, TimeSpan interval, IRunnable action)
Parameters
Type Name Description
TimeSpan initialDelay

The time period that has to pass before first invocation of the action.
TimeSpan interval

The time period that has to pass between each invocation of the action.
IRunnable action

The action that is being scheduled.
