Each timer has a unique identifier. A timer is started with QObject::startTimer(). .PP The QTimer class provides a high-level programming interface that uses signals instead of events. It also provides one-shot timers. .PP The event handler QObject::timerEvent() receives timer events. .PP See also QTimer, QObject::timerEvent(), QObject::startTimer(), QObject::killTimer() and QObject::killTimers(). .PP Examples: .(l grapher/grapher.cpp xform/xform.cpp progress/progress.cpp qmag/qmag.cpp forever/forever.cpp scrollview/scrollview.cpp .)l .SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION .SH "QTimerEvent::QTimerEvent ( int timerId )" Constructs a timer event object with the timer identifier set to \fItimerId.\fR .SH "int QTimerEvent::timerId () const" Returns the unique timer identifier, which is the same identifier as returned from QObject::startTimer(). .SH "SEE ALSO" .BR http://doc.trolltech.com/qtimerevent.html .BR http://www.trolltech.com/faq/tech.html .SH COPYRIGHT Copyright 1992-2001 Trolltech AS, http://www.trolltech.com.
