CWnd::OnTimer

  • Article

The framework calls this member function after each interval specified in the SetTimer member function used to install a timer.

afx_msg void OnTimer( 
   UINT_PTR nIDEvent  
);

Parameters

  • nIDEvent
    Specifies the identifier of the timer.

Remarks

The DispatchMessage Windows function sends a WM_TIMER message when no other messages are in the application's message queue.

Note

This member function is called by the framework to allow your application to handle a Windows message. The parameters passed to your function reflect the parameters received by the framework when the message was received. If you call the base-class implementation of this function, that implementation will use the parameters originally passed with the message and not the parameters you supply to the function.

Example

See the example in CWnd::SetTimer.
