C++ Guru, please help me....I am doing a simulation using C++ (console application) In the simulation, connection requests arrive following a poisson process. I need generate connection requests and handle these requests. Each time a request is generated, the request will be passed to a function for handling. My problem is: If a request was generated at time T1 , how to trigger a function at T1+T2 ? (T2 is a time instance and is poisson distributed). "time" function can be used to get the current system time, then how to trigger a function at another time instance? What key C++ functions could be used? I know how to handle this problem in WFC and Platform SDK since WM_TIMER messege is available. Thank you very much!!!
