Hi everybody, I am trying to switch from a multicast address to another multicast address. On the bottom of ExecSwitchStreams that perform switch, I want to register a function (ExecSwitchStreamsBack ) so that the program will auto call to after t_time seconds. ExecSwitchStreamsBack will switch back to old multicast address. Code: static void ExecSwitchStreams(input_thread_t *p_input, char *p_new_server, int64_t t_time) { InputClean( p_input, &p_input->input ); input_source_t *other_input = &p_input->input; /* Create the stream_t */ other_input->p_stream = streamAccessNew( other_input->p_access, p_new_server, MY_FALSE ); RegisterTimer ( t_time, p_old_server, ExecSwitchStreamsBack) // Function to register call ExecSwitchStreamsBack after t_time seconds // p_old_server is a parameter for ExecSwitchStreamsBack } static void ExecSwitchStreamsBack(char *p_old_server ) { // code } How can I implement the RegisterTimer like that? Please give me any ideas to implement this function. Many thanks
What operating system? (Looks like unix. What is the function for creating a timer?) Where is p_old_server coming from.
This is a program that it can run on Unix, Window,Mac Os. On window, I use cygwin to compile source. I have use <time.h> library in my source code. p_old_server is a static variable that is stored before performing switch.
