How do I use NSTimer?

Answer 1

#import "MyViewController.h"

@interface MyViewController ()

@property (strong, nonatomic) NSTimer *timer;

@end

@implementation MyViewController

double timerInterval = 1.0f;

- (NSTimer *) timer {
    if (!_timer) {
        _timer = [NSTimer timerWithTimeInterval:timerInterval target:self selector:@selector(onTick:) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
    }
    return _timer;
}

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];

    [[NSRunLoop mainRunLoop] addTimer:self.timer forMode:NSRunLoopCommonModes];
}

-(void)onTick:(NSTimer*)timer
{
    NSLog(@"Tick...");
}

@end
