Examples of using TickerScheduler

[rioan28]

Hello all, could anyone be willing to provide me with a sample of how they used the TickerScheduler. I would really appreciate it.

Thank you in advance.

Can someone explain the reason for this line in the example blink?

ts.add(0, 1000, [&](void *) { blink1(); }, nullptr, true);

[&](void *) { blink1(); } ?

Hey @QuitButton!

It's called a lambda expression, this is how you define a function object inplace for TickerScheduler to execute. You can have multiple calls between the curly braces just like any other function: ts.add(0, 1000, [&](void *) { blink1(); blink2(); blink3(); }, nullptr, true);

Hope this clears things up :)

Ok thanks. I'll be honest - I don't understand it, but I can at least use it to call a function, which is all I need.
