NAME

       tickit_later - invoke a callback at the next round of IO events

SYNOPSIS

       #include <tickit.h>

       typedef int TickitCallbackFn(Tickit *t, TickitEventflags flags,
           void *user);

       int tickit_later(Tickit *t, int msec, TickitBindFlags flags,
           TickitCallbackFn *fn, void *user);

       Link with -ltickit.

DESCRIPTION

       tickit_later()  registers  a callback function to be invoked by the toplevel event loop as
       it processes the next round of IO events. A registered  callback  will  be  invoked  by  a
       running  call  to  tickit_run(3).  The  callback  function  will be invoked once, and then
       destroyed afterwards.

       When  invoked,  the  callback  function  is  always   passed   both   TICKIT_EV_FIRE   and
       TICKIT_EV_UNBIND flags to its flags argument. If the callback had been registered with the
       TICKIT_BIND_DESTROY flag, then it will also be invoked with the TICKIT_EV_DESTROY flag  if
       it has not yet been invoked by the time the toplevel instance is destroyed.

RETURN VALUE

       tickit_later() returns no value.
