Calling a method every x minutes

Question

I want to call some method on every 5 minutes. How can I do this?

public class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("*** calling MyMethod *** ");
        Console.ReadLine();
    }

    private MyMethod()
    {
        Console.WriteLine("*** Method is executed at {0} ***", DateTime.Now);
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
}

Answer 1

var startTimeSpan = TimeSpan.Zero;
var periodTimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5);

var timer = new System.Threading.Timer((e) =>
{
    MyMethod();   
}, null, startTimeSpan, periodTimeSpan);
