Functions

  Type Name Description
Public function void

ClearAllTimersForObject ( void const* Object
)

 Clears all timers that are bound to functions on the given object.
Public function void

ClearTimer ( FTimerHandle& InHandle
)

 Clears a previously set timer, identical to calling SetTimer() with a <= 0.f rate.
Protected function FTimerData *

FindTimer ( FTimerHandle const& InHandle
)

  
Protected function Const FTimerData const *

FindTimer ( FTimerHandle const& InHandle
)

 These should be private, but need to be protected so IMPLEMENT_GET_PROTECTED_FUNC works for testing.
Public function FTimerHandle

GenerateHandle ( int32 Index
)

 This should be private, but needs to be public for testing.
Public function Const TStatId  
Public function Const float Gets the current elapsed time for the specified timer.
Public function Const float

GetTimerRate ( FTimerHandle InHandle
)

 Gets the current rate (time between activations) for the specified timer.
Public function Const float Gets the time remaining before the specified timer is called
Public function Const bool  
Public function Const bool Returns true if the specified timer exists and is not paused
Public function Const bool Returns true if the specified timer exists and is paused
Public function Const bool Returns true if the specified timer exists and is pending
Public function Const FTimerHandle Finds a handle to a timer bound to a particular dynamic delegate.
Public function Const void Debug command to output info on all timers currently set to the log.
Public function Virtual void

OnCrash ()

 Called from crash handler to provide more debug information.
Public function void

PauseTimer ( FTimerHandle InHandle
)

 Pauses a previously set timer.
Public function void

SetTimer ( FTimerHandle& InOutHandle,
float InRate,
bool InbLoop,
float InFirstDelay
)

  
Public function void

SetTimer ( FTimerHandle& InOutHandle,
FTimerDelegate const& InDelegate,
float InRate,
bool InbLoop,
float InFirstDelay
)

 Version that takes any generic delegate.
Public function void

SetTimer ( FTimerHandle& InOutHandle,
FTimerDynamicDelegate const& InDynDelegate,
float InRate,
bool InbLoop,
float InFirstDelay
)

 Version that takes a dynamic delegate (e.g. for UFunctions).
Public function void

SetTimer ( FTimerHandle& InOutHandle,
TFunction< void(void)>&& Callback,
float InRate,
bool InbLoop,
float InFirstDelay
)

 Version that takes a TFunction
Public function void

SetTimer ( FTimerHandle& InOutHandle,
UserClass* InObj,
typename FTimerDelegate::TMethodPtr< UserClass > InTimerMethod,
float InRate,
bool InbLoop,
float InFirstDelay
)

 Sets a timer to call the given native function at a set interval.
Public function void

SetTimer ( FTimerHandle& InOutHandle,
UserClass* InObj,
typename FTimerDelegate::TConstMethodPtr< UserClass > InTimerMethod,
float InRate,
bool InbLoop,
float InFirstDelay
)

  
Public function FTimerHandle

SetTimerForNextTick ( UserClass* inObj,
typename FTimerDelegate::TMethodPtr< UserClass > inTimerMethod
)

 Sets a timer to call the given native function on the next tick.
Public function FTimerHandle

SetTimerForNextTick ( FTimerDelegate const& InDelegate
)

 Version that takes any generic delegate.
Public function FTimerHandle

SetTimerForNextTick ( FTimerDynamicDelegate const& InDynDelegate
)

 Version that takes a dynamic delegate (e.g. for UFunctions).
Public function FTimerHandle

SetTimerForNextTick ( TFunction< void(void)>&& Callback
)

 Version that takes a TFunction
Public function FTimerHandle

SetTimerForNextTick ( UserClass* inObj,
typename FTimerDelegate::TConstMethodPtr< UserClass > inTimerMethod
)

  
Public function void

Tick ( float DeltaTime
)

  
Public function Const bool

TimerExists ( FTimerHandle InHandle
)

 Returns true if the specified timer exists
Public function void

UnPauseTimer ( FTimerHandle InHandle
)

 Unpauses a previously set timer
