- Project description
- DojoX Timing is a project that deals with any kind of advanced use of timing
- constructs. The central object, dojox.timing.Timer (included by default), is
- a simple object that fires a callback on each tick of the timer, as well as
- when starting or stopping it. The interval of each tick is settable, but the
- default is 1 second--useful for driving something such as a clock.
- dojox.timing.Streamer is an object designed to facilitate streaming/buffer-type
- scenarios; it takes an input and an output function, will execute the output
- function onTick, and run the input function when the internal buffer gets
- beneath a certain threshold of items. This can be useful for something timed--
- such as updating a data plot at every N interval, and getting new data from
- a source when there's less than X data points in the internal buffer (think
- real-time data updating).
- dojox.timing.Sequencer is an object, similar to Streamer, that will allow you
- to set up a set of functions to be executed in a specific order, at specific
- intervals.
- The DojoX Timing ThreadPool is a port from the original implementation in the
- f(m) library. It allows a user to feed a set of callback functions (wrapped
- in a Thread constructor) to a pool for background processing.

- Installation instructions
- Grab the following from the Dojo SVN Repository:
- http://svn.dojotoolkit.org/var/src/dojo/dojox/trunk/timing.js
- http://svn.dojotoolkit.org/var/src/dojo/dojox/trunk/timing/*
- Install into the following directory structure:
- /dojox/timing.js
- /dojox/timing/
- ...which should be at the same level as your Dojo checkout.
