CNiTempFile CNiTempFile extends the functionality of CNiFile to add
temporary file creation and manipulation.
CNiTimer CNiTimer objects use the Windows multimedia timer to generate
high-resolution, asynchronous tick events. Respond to tick events
when you want to perform an action at a discrete interval.
Additionally, you can count the tick events to calculate elapsed
time. The CNiTimer class also contains static functions you can
use to delay for a period of time or to determine elapsed time
between two points in your program.
