[Solved] Delay in c# not thread.sleep [closed]

by


Yes, you can do the same thing in C#, but that is a very bad idea.

This way of making a pause is called a busy loop, because it will make the main thread use as much CPU as possible.

What you want to do instead is to set up a timer, and call a callback method from the tick event:

public void Wait(double seconds, Action action) {
  Timer timer = new Timer();
  timer.Interval = (int)(seconds * 1000.0);
  timer.Tick += (s, o) => {
    timer.Enabled = false;
    timer.Dispose();
    action();
  };
  timer.Enabled = true;
}

Usage example:

textbox.text = "Test";
Wait(5.0, () => {
  textbox.text = "Finish";
});
