Timer inside a (BOOL) Method?

StefanL · 12-05-2010, 02:04 PM

Hi Folks,

I am checking the state of a button (selected/unselected) inside a "BOOL - Methode" like this:

Code:

if (_curHighlighted) {

			if (selectedItem != curSelection) {

				if ([self.selectedWinzis count] == 2) {

					//[self schedule: @selector(unselect:) interval:1.0];

					selectedItem = [self.selectedWinzis objectAtIndex:1];
					[selectedItem unselected];

					selectedItem = [self.selectedWinzis objectAtIndex:0];
					[selectedItem unselected];

					[self.selectedWinzis removeObjectAtIndex:1];
					[self.selectedWinzis removeObjectAtIndex:0];

				}
			state = kMenuStateTrackingTouch;
			return YES;

			}
    }
    return NO;

My goal is to unselect after 1 second. But this has to happen inside the code above. Does anyone can forward me
into the correct direction?

Thanks for your support!

Br,

Stefan

Complete Methode:

Code:

-(BOOL) ccTouchBegan:(UITouch *)touch withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {

    if ( state != kMenuStateWaiting ) return NO;

    curSelection = [self itemForTouch:touch];
    [curSelection selected];
    _curHighlighted = curSelection;

	[self.selectedWinzis addObject:curSelection];

	NSLog(@"CurArray: %@", self.selectedWinzis);

    if (_curHighlighted) {

			if (selectedItem != curSelection) {

				if ([self.selectedWinzis count] == 2) {

					//[self schedule: @selector(unselect:) interval:1.0];

					selectedItem = [self.selectedWinzis objectAtIndex:1];
					[selectedItem unselected];

					selectedItem = [self.selectedWinzis objectAtIndex:0];
					[selectedItem unselected];

					[self.selectedWinzis removeObjectAtIndex:1];
					[self.selectedWinzis removeObjectAtIndex:0];

				}
			state = kMenuStateTrackingTouch;
			return YES;

			}
    }
    return NO;

}

I'm not sure the full method name but that is why we have Xcode to finish typing our methods..

Code:

[self performSelector:@selector(unselect:) withObject:nil afterDelay:1.0];

Hi Bertrand,

thanks for your feedback! The syntax is correct as I am using cocos2d - the problem occours, when I am using CCTimer like NSTimer, then the Return will not be called...

Where is the timer? Your method should return just fine... I'm not sure I understand. Did you put breakpoints to see if it is even hitting any of your returns...?
