ITimerEvent.set

Sets next expiration time of interval timer.

Setting first_s or first_ms to a non-zero value arms the timer. Setting both to zero disarms the timer. If both interval_s and interval_,s are zero, the timer expires just once, at the time specified by first_s and first_ms.

  1. itimerspec set(timespec first, timespec interval)
  2. itimerspec set(time_t first_s, uint first_ms, time_t interval_s, uint interval_ms)
