iphone development: how to call a function

Question

Let us say I have a void function which just have NSLog(@"Call me"); in its body.

How can I call it in my view like in every ten seconds. I know it sounds like very beginner question but I really need it

read about NSTimer which does exactly what you're looking for. https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/nstimer_Class/Reference/NSTimer.html — Simon, Aug 23 '12 at 08:22
This question is so far away from the OP being able to use NSTimer that they are not helpful suggestions. — Jessedc, Mar 04 '14 at 10:28

NSTimer *timer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:10 target:self selector:@selector(yourMethod) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];

It is OK but I want it to stop it after 5 iterations. However it goes to infinity. – death7eater Aug 23 '12 at 12:00

Use NSTimer class [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:10.0 target:self selector:@selector(makeMyProgressBarMoving) userInfo:nil repeats:YES]
