Using an NSTimer in Swift

Question

In this scenario, timerFunc() is never called. What am I missing?

class AppDelegate: NSObject, NSApplicationDelegate {

    var myTimer: NSTimer? = nil

             


        

Answer 1

With swift3, you can run it with,

var timer: Timer?
func startTimer() {

    if timer == nil {
        timer = Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: 3, target: self, selector: #selector(self.loop), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
    }
}

func stopTimer() {
    if timer != nil {
        timer?.invalidate()
        timer = nil
    }
}

func loop() {
    //do something
}
