Flex/Flash is single-threaded which means that nothing can keep the next line of code from running.
You won't get a timer event until you finish your loop, and you don't need to worry about calling stop() until you no longer want timer events. ________________________________ From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of markgoldin_2000 Sent: Tuesday, April 22, 2008 8:22 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Timer questions 1. If I timer.start() in a loop will the loop be waiting for TimerEvent to complete before it (loop) moves to next step? 2. Do I need to timer.stop() inside of TimerEvent handler to make sure Flex processes that handler in a whole? What I mean is if a timer interval is very small and handler processing takes longer then timer interval then timer might interrupt it before it is complete. Thanks for help.
