public virtual bool SendMessageAtTime (Android.OS.Message msg, long uptimeMillis);

[<Android.Runtime.Register("sendMessageAtTime", "(Landroid/os/Message;J)Z", "GetSendMessageAtTime_Landroid_os_Message_JHandler")>]
abstract member SendMessageAtTime : Android.OS.Message * int64 -> bool
override this.SendMessageAtTime : Android.OS.Message * int64 -> bool

Parameters

msg: Message

uptimeMillis: Int64

The absolute time at which the message should be delivered, using the android.os.SystemClock#uptimeMillis time-base.

Returns

Boolean

Returns true if the message was successfully placed in to the message queue. Returns false on failure, usually because the looper processing the message queue is exiting. Note that a result of true does not mean the message will be processed -- if the looper is quit before the delivery time of the message occurs then the message will be dropped.

Attributes: RegisterAttribute

Remarks
