[linux-audio-dev] timesetevent alternative

Hello, About 5 years ago I hacked together a nice midi looper app. The only problem is that it was for Windows. Anyway... I'm working towards reimplamenting the app in linux. Basically, I have a circular linked list of midi events. Each node has the event and the time to the next event. In Windows there was a timeSetEvent function. I pass this function the time_to_next_event, function_to_call_after_time_to_next_event, and data_to_pass_to_function. The function_to_call_after_time_to_next_event just outputs the event and then calls timeSetEvent with the next nodes data. I'm curious as to how others would implament something similar in linux. Perhaps as a thread with sleep call? Is there a high resolution sleep function? Any ideas? Thanks. -Garett
