Is it possible a task of timer can't be scheduled

[xiaofeng zhang]

Hi chromium base experts,

I am using chromium base, and create and runs a timer in a SequencedTaskRunner.

But I find a bug that maybe cased by "the task of timer not scheduled periodically"，because the log in the task is not printed. If the function works well, the log is printed periodically.

So is it possible a task of timer can't be scheduled, because cpu load too high or other reasons?

Did you Start() the base::Timer()? If so, then it all depends on what the SequencedTaskRunner is (i.e. is it running tasks posted to it)

yes，I run the Start() of base::Timer()，and the SequencedTaskRunner actually execute the task one or two times, then it seems not be scheduled again.

Sounds like you're looking for base::RepeatingTimer?
