Requests the scheduler to dispatch all events up to and including the time specified. This method is expected to be called by a controlling clock specifying the current time, just in time to dispatch the next advise request.
REFERENCE_TIME Advise( const REFERENCE_TIME & rtTime );
Parameters
- rtTime
- Current reference time.
Return Values
Returns the reference time at which the next advise will expire, or MAX_TIME if there are no outstanding events.
Remarks
Clocks can call this method to advise the scheduler of the time. The scheduler will then signal all the events that have expired, and reschedule the periodic ones.
It is not intended that clocks should call this method all the time, rather that clocks will call Advisejust one time. The time returned will be invalidated if you start adding extra advises.
