Fire method 5 seconds after execution of previous

Question

How to set a timer so that after 5 of sending the command EnvDados the sending of the command NovoEnvio, this within the same method?

IPAddress[] IPs = Dns.GetHostAddresses(host);
Socket s = new Socket(
               AddressFamily.InterNetwork, 
               SocketType.Stream, 
               ProtocolType.Tcp);

s.Connect(IPs[0], port);

// Recebe o Retorno após a conexão
byte[] buffer = new byte[60];
s.Receive(buffer);

// Envia um novo Comando
byte[] EnvDados = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(ordem + "\n");
s.Send(EnvDados);

// Após 5 segundos enviar novo comando
byte[] NovoEnvio = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(ordem + "\n");
s.Send(NovoEnvio);

Answer 1

You don’t need a timer for that.

If you are using C# 6

s.Send(EnvDados);

await Task.Sleep(5000);

byte[] NovoEnvio = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(ordem + "\n");
s.Send(NovoEnvio);

In previous versions

Obviously, this will catch the thread the method is running, but in some cases this is no problem.

s.Send(EnvDados);

Thread.Sleep(5000);

byte[] NovoEnvio = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(ordem + "\n");
s.Send(NovoEnvio);
