Hmm, that depends on what is "event", "count" and "wait".
Obviously you can:
Done_At := Clock + 5.0;
...
-- Upon an event
if Clock < Done_At then
Count := Count + 1;
end if;
Who waits for 5s? Is it a task? Is it blocked? Is the event signaled to
this task? Another task? And so on, including a specification of what is
the GUI library used, Win32 API, Gtk etc.
