All Base Classes: Poco::RefCountedObject, Poco::Runnable
Known Derived Classes: TimerTaskAdapter
Member Functions: cancel, isCancelled, lastExecution
Inherited Functions: duplicate, referenceCount, release, run
typedef Poco::AutoPtr < TimerTask > Ptr;
TimerTask();
Creates the TimerTask.
~TimerTask();
Destroys the TimerTask.
void cancel();
Cancels the execution of the timer. If the task has been scheduled for one-time execution and has not yet run, or has not yet been scheduled, it will never run. If the task has been scheduled for repeated execution, it will never run again. If the task is running when this call occurs, the task will run to completion, but will never run again.
bool isCancelled() const;
Poco::Timestamp lastExecution() const;
Returns the time of the last execution of the timer task.
Returns 0 if the timer has never been executed.
