Hi again,

I am sorry, but I _misread_ the code snippet.
Of course upon entering the callback function, the
timeout function will be passed the id of the
timer that has expired, as well as pointers to
parameters.

Again, sorry, this last statement is wrong.

>anyway, so that would not work !
But this is correct. You need to start a new timer.
As a restart is just the execution of a stop and a start
function, it is even *more optimal* this way
(i.e. less timer list handling involved)

Regards,
Andreas
