Help - how to put a module into sleep for a while?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I'm working on a module (modB) that works with an
existing module (modA).

One of modB's functions calls a function,
func_of_modA(), defined in modA.  If the returned
value of func_of_modA() is 0, then modB needs to sleep
(not busy loop) for 1 sencond and then calls
func_of_modA() again...until the returned value is 1.

What is the best/easiest way to implement this type of
wait?  Could some one please help me on this?  Sample
code or code snip would be very helpful.

Thanks,

T.
