| Project description |
| |
| DojoX Timing is a project that deals with any kind of advanced use of timing |
| constructs. The central object, dojox.timing.Timer (included by default), is |
| a simple object that fires a callback on each tick of the timer, as well as |
| when starting or stopping it. The interval of each tick is settable, but the |
| default is 1 second--useful for driving something such as a clock. |
| |
| dojox.timing.Streamer is an object designed to facilitate streaming/buffer-type |
| scenarios; it takes an input and an output function, will execute the output |
| function onTick, and run the input function when the internal buffer gets |
| beneath a certain threshold of items. This can be useful for something timed-- |
| such as updating a data plot at every N interval, and getting new data from |
| a source when there's less than X data points in the internal buffer (think |
| real-time data updating). |
| |
| dojox.timing.Sequencer is an object, similar to Streamer, that will allow you |
| to set up a set of functions to be executed in a specific order, at specific |
| intervals. |
| |
| The DojoX Timing ThreadPool is a port from the original implementation in the |
| f(m) library. It allows a user to feed a set of callback functions (wrapped |
| in a Thread constructor) to a pool for background processing. |
