Console.ReadLine Break | 易学教程

问题

I'm trying to figure out how I can use Console.ReadLine and a timer. My console program is designed to run a long process automatically, with this process restarting every 30 seconds after the previous process completed. I want to give the user the ability to break the auto-run by typing a command though. If I use Console.ReadLine() though, it will wait until the user enters something, whereas I want the program to continue on through a loop if nothing is entered within 30 seconds. . . Any thoughts??

For example:

RunProcess > Wait 30s for User Input. If none: Continue Loop

Thanks a lot!

回答1:

You could run your timer on a separate thread. When the user enters text, store it in a variable that is accessible to both threads. When the timer ticks, see if anything is entered and continue accordingly.

Be sure to be thread safe :-)

EDIT:

You can use a System.Threading.Timer to tick every 30 seconds and in its callback method, check if the text has been set.

Don't use Console.ReadLine() but check if Console.KeyAvailable is true and then read Console.ReadKey() to check for exit condition.

Try this example code

class Program
{
    static bool done;
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        int count = 0;            
        done = false;
        while (!done)
        {
            Thread.Sleep(2000);
            count++;
            Console.WriteLine("Calculation #" + count.ToString());
            if (Console.KeyAvailable)
            {
                ConsoleKeyInfo key = Console.ReadKey();
                if (key.Key == ConsoleKey.Escape)
                {
                    done = true;
                }
            }                                
        }
        Console.WriteLine();
        Console.WriteLine("end");
    }
}
