Accessing timer tick (and debug with emulator)

Accessing timer tick (and debug with emulator)

BY 30 May 2018 Native Application Development

I am developing an app that needs a timer tick callback. But I am having problems determining what to use, and how to use it.

 

I have tried using the watch_app functions, but they can’t be used with the emulator. I also saw some api’s for ecore. What do I have to do to use them? Will they work in the emulator?

 

FWIW: I am using edje to build the ui, although that is not a strict requirement.

 

On a side note, is there any api/callback for timer ticks less than 1 second apart?

 

Any pointers greatly appreciated.

 

TIA
