Question:
How can I beep the PC Speaker several times in a row, and have a
small delay between beeps that is reliable across different machines
with different clock speeds?
Answer:
The following demonstrates using a delay function that can be used
to beep the PC speaker.
Example:
procedure Delay(ms : longint);
{$IFNDEF WIN32}
var
TheTime : LongInt;
{$ENDIF}
begin
{$IFDEF WIN32}
Sleep(ms);
{$ELSE}
TheTime := GetTickCount + ms;
while GetTickCount < TheTime do
Application.ProcessMessages;
{$ENDIF}
end;
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
MessageBeep(word(-1));
Delay(200);
MessageBeep(word(-1));
Delay(200);
MessageBeep(word(-1));
end;
