Adobe Air: adding a timer through Javascript
So I am working on a small app that should run a fixed javascript routine (a refresh of a page) every 60 seconds.
First off, make sure that you have the AirAliases.js loaded:
<script src="AIRAliases.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
And then run this code through Javascript:
function startTimer(){
myTimer = new air.Timer(60000, 0);
myTimer.addEventListener(air.TimerEvent.TIMER, appLoad);
myTimer.start();
}
The second argument for air.Timer() is the number of times you want this timer to run. I run the code at the end of the "appLoad()" function, so it get's looped automatically.myTimer = new air.Timer(60000, 0);
myTimer.addEventListener(air.TimerEvent.TIMER, appLoad);
myTimer.start();
}
The addEventListener is an listener that runs when the TIMER is finished, and it runs the "appLoad" function.
