Update Interval for Rtimer - sr-users

11 Jul 2014

Hi,

I have a basic yet weird problem with Rtimer module.
I cannot make it execute a route block for me at an interval of my choice
(which is what it is supposed to do, right?)

Here is a simplified example with relevant parts of my config script:

Assume I want to print "hello" every 100 ms:

I have a script like this (I've put all my global variables, in case they
matter and my relevant route blocks...)

Is there anything I am doing wrong here in the usage of rtimer?
