Provides data for the Timer.Elapsed event.
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | SignalTime | Gets the date/time when the Timer.Elapsed event was raised. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.(Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Finalize() | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.(Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode() | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetType() | |
![]() | MemberwiseClone() | |
![]() | ToString() | Returns a string that represents the current object.(Inherited from Object.) |
The following example instantiates a Timer object that fires its Timer.Elapsed event every two seconds (2000 milliseconds), sets up an event handler for the event, and starts the timer. The event handler displays the value of the ElapsedEventArgs.SignalTime property each time it is raised.
using System; using System.Timers; public class Example { private static Timer aTimer; public static void Main() { // Create a timer and set a two second interval. aTimer = new System.Timers.Timer(); aTimer.Interval = 2000; // Hook up the Elapsed event for the timer. aTimer.Elapsed += OnTimedEvent; // Have the timer fire repeated events (true is the default) aTimer.AutoReset = true; // Start the timer aTimer.Enabled = true; Console.WriteLine("Press the Enter key to exit the program at any time... "); Console.ReadLine(); } private static void OnTimedEvent(Object source, System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs e) { Console.WriteLine("The Elapsed event was raised at {0}", e.SignalTime); } } // The example displays output like the following: // Press the Enter key to exit the program at any time... // The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2015 8:48:58 PM // The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2015 8:49:00 PM // The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2015 8:49:02 PM // The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2015 8:49:04 PM // The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2015 8:49:06 PM
