[fpc-pascal] Daemon using TTimer on Windows

[Marcos Douglas B. Santos]

Hi,

I need to build a daemon app on Windows. It will need a timer to
performe some tasks. This timer could be big among 15 min, 30 min, 2
hours, etc.

I thought that I can use TTimer but I've always heard that it's not
possible because some problems related with "NoGUI" stuff.

I've found a thread[1] which talks about that but they haven't
provided a real solution, at least for Windows.

My question is: Nowadays, can I use TTimer with no restrictions in a
daemon application on Windows? If not, which could be a possible
solution?

Thanks.
