Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Lua - timer callback

Hi,

Is there a way to have a Lua callback function tied to a timer?

I've setup TCP listeners that filter for HTTP traffic and specific URLs. I would like another function that checks on a set interval to verify the traffic was observed or report an error.  I can tie a listener to be called on every frame and check the elapsed time, but that seems like too much overhead.

Thanks,
