LoopDelay.NET

Nuget

Allows you to add a Delay or High Resolution Sleep to Loop Conditions, removing them from the body.

You can optionally add an Expire Time to prevent infinite loops with the option to run an ExpireAction.

using LoopDelay.NET;

High Resolution Sleep (Fastest)

Parameter Type Usage
delayMs uint How long the loop should be delayed for in Milliseconds
startTicks long (optional) (UTC) The time the loop started as Ticks
expireMs uint (optional) When the loop should expire in Milliseconds
OnExpireAction Action (optional) Action to Run as a Task if the Loop Expires, not if you manually break the Loop
while (await Loops.Sleep(delayMs))
{
    // Only Your Code Inside the Loop
    break;
}

or

var startTicks = DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks;
while (await Loops.Sleep(startTicks, delayMs, expireMs))
{
    // Only Your Code Inside the Loop
    break;
}

or

while (await Loops.Sleep(startTicks, delayMs, expireMs, () => { Console.WriteLine("Expired"); }))
{
    // Only Your Code Inside the Loop
    break;
}

Simple Delay (Faster)

Parameter Type Usage
delayMs int How long the loop should be delayed for in Milliseconds
startTicks long (optional) (UTC) The time the loop started as Ticks
expireMs int (optional) When the loop should expire in Milliseconds
OnExpireAction Action (optional) Action to Run as a Task if the Loop Expires, not if you manually break the Loop
var startTicks = DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks;
while (await Loops.Delay(startTicks, delayMs, expireMs))
{
    // Only Your Code Inside the Loop
    break;
}

Strongly Typed Delay (Slower)

Parameter Type Usage
delayTimeSpan TimeSpan How long the loop should be delayed for as a TimeSpan
startTime DateTime (optional) (UTC) The time the loop started as a DateTime
expireTimeSpan TimeSpan (optional) When the loop should expire as a TimeSpan
OnExpireAction Action (optional) Action to Run as a Task if the Loop Expires, not if you manually break the Loop
var startTime = DateTime.UtcNow;
while (await Loops.Delay(startTime, delayTimeSpan, expireTimeSpan))
{
    // Only Your Code Inside the Loop
    break;
}

While Conditions

You can add a condition to the while statement like you usually would or you can put it in the body; or both.

var startTime = DateTime.UtcNow;
while (Condition && await Loops.Delay(startTime, delayTimeSpan, expireTimeSpan))
{
    if (Condition) { break; }

    // Only Your Code Inside the Loop
    break;
}

Await or .Result()

 while (await Loops.Delay(startTime, delayTimeSpan, expireTimeSpan))

or

 while (Loops.Delay(startTime, delayTimeSpan, expireTimeSpan).Result)

Notes

Start time/ticks should use DateTime.UtcNow
