How to schedule a task in C++

Question

I have a C++ windows service which should call a function every 15 minutes. I am new to c++ and have no idea how to do this.Can anybody tell me how to achieve this?

Thanks, Subrat

Call SetTimer().

Alternately, use the Task Scheduler API, which can execute a regular .exe or COM handler on a predefined schedule. If you do that, you may not even need a service.
