A convenience class for Timer, that calls the given callable object once after the given amount of milliseconds, passing any positional or keyword args. The return value of the callable is availbale after it has been run with the GetResult method.
If you don’t need to get the return value or restart the timer then there is no need to hold a reference to this object. It will hold a reference to itself while the timer is running (the timer has a reference to Notify) but the cycle will be broken when the timer completes, automatically cleaning up the CallLater object.
