Class GTimer

  • public class GTimer
extends java.lang.Object
    A class to schedule Runnables to run after some delay, optionally repeating. This class uses a Timer internally to schedule work. Clients of this class are given a monitor that allows them to check on the state of the runnable, as well as to cancel the runnable.

      • scheduleRunnable

        public static GTimerMonitor scheduleRunnable​(long delay,
                                             java.lang.Runnable callback)
        Schedules a runnable for execution after the specified delay. A delay value less than 0 will cause this timer to schedule nothing. This allows clients to use this timer class with no added logic for managing timer enablement.
        Parameters:
        delay - the time (in milliseconds) to wait before executing the runnable. A negative value signals not to run the timer--the callback will not be executed
        callback - the runnable to be executed.
        Returns:
        a GTimerMonitor which allows the caller to cancel the timer and check its status.

        public static GTimerMonitor scheduleRepeatingRunnable​(long delay,
                                                      long period,
                                                      java.lang.Runnable callback)
        Schedules a runnable for repeated execution after the specified delay. A delay value less than 0 will cause this timer to schedule nothing. This allows clients to use this timer class with no added logic for managing timer enablement.
        Parameters:
        delay - the time (in milliseconds) to wait before executing the runnable. A negative value signals not to run the timer--the callback will not be executed
        period - time in milliseconds between successive runnable executions
        callback - the runnable to be executed
        Returns:
        a GTimerMonitor which allows the caller to cancel the timer and check its status
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if period <= 0
