sleep

I thought I was doing something simple here, but C decided to go asynchronous on me. I'm not sure what's going on. Here's my code: #include <stdio.h> int main() { printf("start"); sleep(5); printf("stop"); } When I compile and run, I notice that sleep(5) works like a charm. But the compiler decided it was a good idea to skip the first printf() and go out of order, so when running, the program waits for 5 seconds and then prints startstop . What's the deal? My theory is that the program initiates the print operation with the shell, then continues with the program, leaving Bash to wait until the

I have loaded script file like below code in angular home.component.ts file export class HomeComponent { constructor() { this.loadDynmicallyScript(); } public loadDynmicallyScript() { var script = document.createElement('script'); script.src = "../node_modules/xxxxxx/i18n/xx.min.js"; script.async =false; document.head.appendChild(script); } But this file gets loaded after components created and later. So, in this case, it makes no use of this file. I want to load this file once I appended in documents. How to achieve this? You can return a promise to chain calls export class HomeComponent {

I try to experiment with Thread.Sleep() . I created basic Windows Forms application with one button. private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { Thread thread1 = new Thread(DoStuff); thread1.Start(); for (int i = 0; i < 100000; i++) { Thread.Sleep(500); button1.Text +="."; } } public void DoStuff() { //DoStuff } When I click my button the DoStuff method works fine, but the GUI freezes and nothing happens. Can someone explain me why? To keep the UI active, you need for the main UI thread to service its message pump. It can only do that when it is not handling UI events. In your

This question already has an answer here: What is the JavaScript version of sleep()? 74 answers I'm aware of both setInterval and setTimeout functions but it's not suitable for my case, because I need to create an img DOM element in the interval of 7 seconds. The count of images are not predefined (varies daily). When I use setInterval , I cannot completely stop it after certain limit (daily count). [ clearInterval clears iterations only] When I use setTimeout inside loop (daily count), it never delays. So the only possibility is a sleep function. Can anyone help for this situation? What's the

I'm trying simulate a key down and key up action. For example: 2638 millseconds. SendMessage(hWnd, WM_KEYDOWN, keyCode, 0); Sleep(2638); SendMessage(hWnd, WM_KEYUP, keyCode, 0); How would you know if it really worked? You wouldn't with this code, since accurately measuring the time that code takes to execute is a difficult task. To get to the question posed by your question title (you should really ask one question at a time...) the accuracy of said functions is dictated by the operating system. On Linux, the system clock granularity is 10ms, so timed process suspension via nanosleep() is only

I want something like this in javascript. for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) { alert(i); // now sleep 1 sec sleep(1000); } is there a built in Javascript or Jquery for this? Thank you! There's no such thing, directly. You would have to tell javascript to wake 'something' up after some time using setTimeout . This 'something' would be the code that you plan to execute after the sleep, of course. From an example I found on the internet : function dothingswithsleep( part ) { if( part == 0 ) { alert( "before sleep" ); setTimeout( function() { dothingswithsleep( 1 ); }, 1000 ); } else if( part == 1 ) { alert
