Unity Editor Extension IEnumerator?

Hey guys! I'm working on a unity editor extension. In this plugin I need run a specific function in the a editor window every 2 seconds. Does anyone know how to do this?

 

Bind yourself on this event;

Code (csharp):

1. EditorApplication.update

And run a counter for the number of update received. I'm not sure if Time.deltaTime works in editor mode, so you may not have a fixed 2 sec counter.

 

Got it working! Thanks.

Code (CSharp):

1.    
2. void OnEnable ()
3.     {
4.  
5.         EditorApplication.update = CondtionUpdate;
6. }
7.  
8.     int updates = 0;
9.     void CondtionUpdate() // Called around 100 times per sec
10.     {
11.         updates++;
12.         if (updates > 200)
13.         {
14.             Debug.Log("Updating");
15.             updates = 0;
16.         }
17.     }
18.  

 

Doesn't standard .NET have some standard time functions that could be used?

 

Sure thing.

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3. using System.Timers;
4.  
5. public class TimersDemo : MonoBehaviour {
6.     Timer timer;
7.     int counter = 0;
8.  
9.     void Start() {
10.         timer = new Timer(1000);
11.         timer.Elapsed += new ElapsedEventHandler(TimerEvent);
12.         timer.Enabled = true;
13.     }
14.  
15.     void Update() {
16.         if(counter >= 5) {
17.             timer.Enabled = false;
18.         }
19.     }
20.  
21.     void OnApplicationQuit() {
22.         timer.Close();
23.     }
24.    
25.     void TimerEvent(object source, ElapsedEventArgs e) {
26.         counter++;
27.         Debug.Log("TimerEvent() at " + System.DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString());
28.     }
29. }
30.
