--- AceTimer-3.0 provides a central facility for registering timers. |
--- **AceTimer-3.0** provides a central facility for registering timers. |
-- AceTimer supports one-shot timers and repeating timers. All timers are stored in an efficient |
-- data structure that allows easy dispatching and fast rescheduling. Timers can be registered, rescheduled |
-- or canceled at any time, even from within a running timer, without conflict or large overhead.\\ |
-- AceTimer is currently limited to firing timers at a frequency of 0.1s. This constant may change |
-- in the future, but for now it seemed like a good compromise in efficiency and accuracy. |
-- |
-- All `:Schedule` functions will return a handle to the current timer, which you will need to store if you |
-- need to cancel or reschedule the timer you just registered. |
-- |
-- **AceTimer-3.0** can be embeded into your addon, either explicitly by calling AceTimer:Embed(MyAddon) or by |
-- specifying it as an embeded library in your AceAddon. All functions will be available on your addon object |
-- and can be accessed directly, without having to explicitly call AceTimer itself.\\ |
-- It is recommended to embed AceTimer, otherwise you'll have to specify a custom `self` on all calls you |
-- make into AceTimer. |
