Probably very useful, Joe. My scheduling framework permits essentially a plugable and detachable "main" loop (though multiple schedulers are supported). For debugging, any number of iterations can be executed, but the main use is continuous deterministic in process async execution, and to be async it needs a timer to trigger iterations.
While being able to use jconsole is a nice to have, as a practical matter, jqt is probably a suitable interface because a gui to pause/resume the scheduler or issue other commands, and to receive important messages, allows the console to receive a dump of usually unimportant (but debug relevant) messages. Basically, if you have an in process async taskset, you also want to execute other tasks, and even if you don't need any fancy gui functionality to display/obtain the results of those other executions, having those results in their own window is very helpful compared to being mixed with even important messages from the async process. ----- Original Message ----- From: Joe Bogner <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: Sent: Wednesday, July 9, 2014 10:02:21 AM Subject: Re: [Jprogramming] Qt under jconsole?

I have started some work on a system timer using libuv, which is the same library used in node.js and julia. http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/JoeBogner/LibuvTimer Eventually I also want to add async socket support and possibly websockets Pascal also has a scheduling framework that can be used for timers and doesnt require a 3rd party linrary I will post when I make progress but it may be a while ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
