Description

Creates a timer that, once started, calls the specified event handler when the specified time in milliseconds passes unless you stop the timer manually.

The tethering implementation uses GenerateTimer to create timers to handle timeouts in information requests between adapters. The class of these timers is TThreadTimer, a type declared as private within the declaration of TTetheringAdapter. TThreadTimer subclasses TThread.

You can control the timer as follows:

• Call Start to start the timer.
• Call Cancel to stop the timer manually.
