Well it seems that the modal loop keeps the timer from firing. As soon as I close the dialog the timer fires. How can I set a timer within a modal dialog?

Luc

You need to add the timer to the run loop with the right mode. Use the timerWithTimeInterval methods to create an NSTimer and then call [[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] addTimer:myTimer forMode:NSModalPanelRunLoopMode]. Check the docs for NSTimer and NSRunLoop for more info.

Other than having NULL instead of nil and TRUE instead of YES, this should work. Note also that the run loop retains the timer, so unless you need to message it outside of your updateMess: method, you don't need to keep it.

Hi,

I have a timer that I set in awakeFromNib but it's never firing:

- (void)awakeFromNib
{
    m_tUpdate = [[NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:(0.5)
target:self selector:@selector(updateMess:) userInfo:NULL
repeats:TRUE] retain];
}

- (void)updateMess:(NSTimer*)t
{
    ...
}



Am I doing something wrong?

Luc
