I have the following code, does this run an endless loop?
I am trying to schedule something every minute and the console application should run continuously until I close it.
class Program
{
static int curMin;
static int lastMinute = DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(-1).Minutes;
static void Main(string[] args)
{
// Not sure about this line if it will run continuously every minute??
System.Threading.Timer timer = new System.Threading.Timer(new TimerCallback(TimCallBack), null, 1000, 60000);
Console.Read();
timer.Dispose();
}
private static void TimCallBack(object o)
{
curMin = DateTime.Now.Minute;
if (lastMinute < curMin)
{
// Do my work every minute
lastMinute = curMin;
}
}
}
KISS - or are you competing for the Rube Goldberg award? ;-)
static void Main(string[] args)
{
while(true)
{
DoSomething();
if(Console.KeyAvailable)
{
break;
}
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(60000);
}
}
I think your method should work assuming you don't press any keys on the console window. The answer above will definitely work but isn't the prettiest.
