Implementing a loop using a timer in C#

Question

I wanted to replace a counter based while loop with the timer based while loop in C#.

Example :

while(count < 100000)
{
   //do something 
}
         


        

Answer 1

What about using the Stopwatch class.

using System.Diagnostics;
//...
Stopwatch timer = new Stopwatch();
timer.Start();
while(timer.Elapsed.TotalSeconds < Xseconds)
{
    // do something
}
timer.Stop();
