Hi Evan, You set up the loop but then starve it by going 100% CPU on the ``[ t ] loop``, which never gives the scheduler green thread a chance to run.
Also, you should call ``flush`` so the terminal doesn't buffer all of the output. This one loops for awhile: USING: kernel timers io io.servers prettyprint calendar namespaces threads ; IN: loopfun : start-looping-timer ( -- timer ) "Before Loop" . flush [ "Inside Loop" . flush ] 2 seconds every ; : endless-loop ( -- ) start-looping-timer drop 10000 seconds sleep ; MAIN: endless-loop On Sun, Jul 26, 2015 at 11:49 AM, <evandib...@gmail.com> wrote: > What is the correct way to use a timer within a deployed program? > I never get any errors, but the quotation of the timer is simply never > called. > > --------------- > USING: kernel timers io io.servers prettyprint calendar ; > IN: loopfun > : start-looping-timer ( -- timer ) > "Before Loop" .
