MMMFClockSource &aClockSource

"A reference to the clock source to be used to query the current time."

MMMFClockSourcePeriodicUtilityObserver &aObserver

"A reference to the observer of the utility that will receive callbacks each time the specified period elapses."

Member functions


Start()

IMPORT_C void Start(TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds32 aPeriod);

Description

Starts the clock source periodic utility. The utility will call MmcspuoTick on its observer every aPeriod microseconds until Stop() is called. Note that the utility will not stop automatically when the clock source is stopped.

Parameters

TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds32 aPeriod

"Defines the period with which the observer will receive callbacks."


Stop()

IMPORT_C void Stop();

Description

Stops the clock source periodic utility. No more callbacks will be made after this method has been called.
