AddHandler to array of Timers

General
1

Hi there,

I have an array of timers instantiated in code, say manyTimers(25) - now I would love to add a eventhandler to all those, calling the same method. I could Imagine to add the handlers by

[code]dim i as integer

for i = 0 to manyTimers.ubound // Loop through the timers
AddHandler manyTimers(i).Action, AddressOf ManyTimerAction // Add Handler
next

[/code]

How do I know which timer fired in the method?

The Method looks as follows ATM:

Sub ManyTimerAction(sender as Timer)
//Do Something
End Sub

Or is there a better way to do this?

That’s the right way
The timer you get passed is the one the action is being called for

3

But is there any way to figure out which index this timer has in the array?

4

manyTimers.indexOf(sender) will return the index.

Great! Thanks!

You’re welcome!

Personally I’d suggest your code be written in a way that its not relevant what the index is
Thats an implementation detail that could change when you revise code & then if it depends on the index your code breaks in funny ways

But its just a suggestion
