</a><h4>Overview</h4>
Schedule a procedure to run once a day

</a><h4>Syntax</h4>
<pre> <a name="289807"></a>int Ns_ScheduleDaily(
<a name="289808"></a>Ns_SchedProc *proc,
<a name="289809"></a>void *context,

<a name="289814"></a>);

</a><h4>Description</h4>
<p><a name="289816">
</a>The Ns_ScheduleDaily function schedules the procedure (<code>proc</code>) to be run once a day at the specified time (<code>hour</code> and <code>minute</code>).</p>
<p><a name="289817">
</a>The <code>proc</code> is the scheduled procedure that will be run once a day. It is a function that takes the context and id of the schedule procedure. The <code>id</code> can be used in the Ns_UnscheduleProc procedure to stop the procedure from being called again.</p>
<pre> <a name="289818"></a>typedef void (Ns_SchedProc) (void *context, int id);
</pre><p><p><a name="289819">
</a>The <code>context</code> is the context to pass to the scheduled procedure.</p>
<p><a name="289820">
</a>The possible flags are NS_SCHED_ONCE and NS_SCHED_THREAD. If you specify NS_SCHED_ONCE, the procedure will only be executed once on the specified day and time, and it will not be re-scheduled to execute again the next day. By default, the procedure is re-scheduled after every time it is executed.</p>
<p><a name="289821">
</a>If you specify NS_SCHED_THREAD, the procedure will run detached in a separate thread instead of using the one scheduled procedure thread used by all other scheduled procedures. You should use NS_SCHED_THREAD if the procedure will not return immediately. Note that if you use NS_SCHED_THREAD, and the procedure is still active the next time to run occurs, the next run is skipped instead of just delayed.</p>
<p><a name="289822">
</a>The <code>hour</code> can be an integer from 0 to 23, and the <code>minute</code> an integer from 0 to 59.</p>
<p><a name="289823">
</a>The <code>cleanup</code> procedure will be run once when the <code>proc</code> procedure is unscheduled.</p>
<a name="301013">
</a><h4>Examples</h4>
<p><a name="301015">
</a>Run a procedure (MyProc) once in its own thread at 2:30 a.m.:</p>
<pre> <a name="301017"></a>Ns_ScheduleDaily(myProc, myCtx, NS_SCHED_ONCE | NS_SCHED_THREAD,
