Hello,

you might want to take a look at the ASIO reference.
There you'll find the deadline_timer with which you can do exactly what you want.

Andreas

Hi,

Can I use Boost Timer or Boost DateTime to trigger callbacks? I just want to be able to have the timer/date-time class trigger my handler functions after every 10 seconds for example or trigger a callback handling function after 25 seconds and die. Is that possible with Boost libraries? I am asking this question because, after a cursory look, it appears to me that there is no such facility right now - if this is true, do you suggest any portable library offering this functionality?

Thank you, Asif
