Event Handler that can be triggered every 100ms in C# automatically

Question

Is there a way to trigger an event handler every 100ms in C# automatically without any call?

I need that event handler to trigger a function every 100ms or after any fixed time interval so as to process something. I am not able to figure out a way to do that. Can you help me out with this?

Answer 1

You can use DispatcherTimer

   DispatcherTimer updateTimer = new DispatcherTimer { Interval = new TimeSpan(0, 0, 0, 0, 100) };
   updateTimer.Tick += new EventHandler(UpdateHandler);
   updateTimer.Start();

And you event handler should look something like this

 private void UpdateHandler(object sender, EventArgs e)
 {
      // Your Logic
 }

After that you event will be triggered every 100 ms.
