Timers in Windows Services

[domenu]

Hey,

I am writing a Windows service application in C#.

In this service, I am using a timer that performs actions at a certain time.

My problem: this timer does not seem to run.

When I create a simple Windows Service applic, with only 1 timer in it, it does not work either...

What to do to activate this timer in a simple Windows service.

My timer is enabled in the code, that's for sure!

Can anybody help me out, please???

Thanks in advance

Put here a pice of the code or you have to have a minimum like here:

System.Timers.Timer TimerUserAuthenticationTimeOut = new System.Timers.Timer();
						TimerUserAuthenticationTimeOut.Interval = TimerUserAuthenticationTimeOutValue * 1000;
											TimerUserAuthenticationTimeOut.Elapsed += new System.Timers.ElapsedEventHandler(OnTimerUserAuthenticationTimeOutEvent);
						TimerUserAuthenticationTimeOut.Enabled = true;

private void OnTimerUserAuthenticationTimeOutEvent(object source, System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs e)
{
	System.Timers.Timer obj = (System.Timers.Timer) source;
	//...
}

Which timer class are you using? There are three of them in the framework.

I would suggest using for this application, the one from the Threading namespace.
