Problem restarting HiResTimer (all platforms ?)

(This post has initially been posted on Android forum but seems to be generic to all platforms. I state it here for the record)

I am running on the Mac for the Mac platform using a HighResolutionTimer-derived class.

It seems that the startTimer(int) routine does not work when I re-launch it from the hiResTimerCallback method (to merely change the callback delay). The same happens on an Android platform (please see http://www.juce.com/forum/topic/problem-restarting-hirestimer for more details).

The same code works fine if I use a regular Timer class.

TBH I never expected people to do housekeeping like that from the timer thread itself - I designed it more as a real-time class where you'd just do some minimal amount of work on the callback and control it from another thread.

But it's not hard to make it cope with that - I've changed it now so hopefully it should work ok.

It does work just like a regular Timer now. Thank you.

And yes, I am far from being as good as you Julian to organize my code.

But you did say

"

        It's perfectly ok to call startTimer() or stopTimer() from within this

        callback to change the subsequent intervals.

"

in the callback code. So I was assuming I could do it the way I did.

Thanks for the fast fix anyway.

Drat, the comments do say that! My mistake! (I clearly cut + pasted the comments from the Timer class..)

Well, it works as advertised now - thanks for letting me know!
