Constructor The constructor expects the same arguments as the method to start a timer, plus the reference to the timer manager. These are a record ID to identify the message a target address for which target the message is to be received a timeout in milliseconds (when does the message arrive) a flag whether the message should be repeated an optional record for payload data public CTimer(@NotNull final ITimerManager aManager, @NotNull final IId aId, @NotNull final CTargetAddress aAddress, final long aDelay, final boolean aRepeat, @Nullable final CRecord aTemplate) This does not start the timer yet, it only saves the timer data. https://sillysky.net/docs/nyssr/timer/itimermanager/ Wed, 15 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://sillysky.net/docs/nyssr/timer/itimermanager/ The timer manager takes care of the management of the current timers. Timers in nyssr.net are messages that are sent to their target after a certain time. Get the timer manager The manager is fetched as a singleton from the service registry: final ITimerManager tm = CServiceRegistry.getInstance() .getService(ITimerManager.class); As always, make sure that the service starter of your package has a dependency on the ITimerManager to ensure that the service already exists.
