CORBA 2.6.1 Programmer's Reference

Creates a timer event that specifies its event-handler method and mutex instance attribute.1.
Calls wait on its mutex instance attribute. When the timer pops the event handler is called. The
mutex associated with the event is signaled, unblocking the callers thread. Control returns to the
event core.

When the callers thread runs next, NSDEFw_Timer returns control to the caller.3.
