[vtkusers] renderWindowInteractor.CreateRepeatingTimer(10)

[James Labiak]

Hello All,
My animation using Java, vtk 6.1, and repeating timer is not respecting 
the timer duration. Whether I set it to 10 milliseconds or 10,000, the 
animation rate is about 1 frame/sec. The relevant code follows. I have 
taken steps to make sure that there appear to be no memory leaks during 
the animation. RAM stays constant. (However, a stop button which uses 
the stopAction() method followed by an application close is not 
completely cleaning up the vtk objects yet, as found through 
debug_leaks.) Any suggestions on the repeating timer duration issue 
would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim

......some other code, then:
this.renderWindowInteractor.Initialize();
this.renderWindowInteractor.AddObserver("TimerEvent", this, "myCallBack");
timerID = this.renderWindowInteractor.CreateRepeatingTimer(10000);
System.out.println("timerID = 0" + timerID);
this.renderWindowInteractor.Start();

public void myCallBack() {
if (visualizationLoop < 150) {
visualizationBegin();
}
if (visualizationLoop == 150) {
this.renderWindowInteractor.DestroyTimer(timerID);
stopAction();
}

private void stopAction() {
this.renderWindowInteractor.DestroyTimer(timerID);
this.renderWindowPanel.GetRenderer().RemoveAllViewProps();
// Proceed with vtk object cleanup, then start GC:
vtkReferenceInformation info = vtkObject.JAVA_OBJECT_MANAGER.gc(true);
}
