Blazor Server Side Timer is running amok

I have this ServerSide Blazor running and I have:

listTimer = new System.Timers.Timer();
        listTimer.Interval = 1000;
        listTimer.Elapsed += async (s, e) =>
        {
            await Utils.LogToConsole(jsRuntime, DateTime.Now.ToString());
        }

    `

But when I run this I get huge amounts of log in the Chrome console but I expect to see only logs each 1000 millis. Anyone seen this problem and found a workaround. Yes I could check the actual time and compare but I dont like it triggering like thats crazy.

The exact same hapens to me, but it doesn't seem like Dispose() is being called at all.

That can only happen when you create and assign the Timer more than once.

You didn't post that code but I guess you need something like:

if (listTimer == null)
{
    listTimer = new System.Timers.Timer();
    listTimer.Interval = 1000;
    listTimer.Elapsed += async (s, e) =>
    {
        await Utils.LogToConsole(jsRuntime, DateTime.Now.ToString());
    }
}

and a Timer is IDisposable , so add:

@implements IDisposable

and this to @code:

public void Dispose()
{
    listTimer?.Dispose();
}

You habe to unsubscribe the timer-Event when disposing the component. The easiest way to do that ist disposing the timer itself.

@using System
@implements IDisposable

@code {
    public void Dispose()
    {
        listTimer?.Dispose();
    }
}
