how to make a time delay in java code example
Example 1: java delay
Syntax :
=========================================================
Thread.sleep(1000); // 1000 milliseconds.. |
=========================================================
int i=0;
for(;;){
Thread.sleep(2000); // set time delay to 2 seconds..
System.out.println(i++); // output : every output will display after 2 seconds..
}
Example 2: java pause 1 second
//deprecated in main thread:
try {
Thread.sleep(1000);//time is in ms (1000 ms = 1 second)
} catch (InterruptedException e) {e.printStackTrace();}
//please use bellow instead:
Timer timer = new Timer();
timer.schedule(new TimerTask() {
public void run() {
//what you want to do
}
}, 1000);//wait 1000ms before doing the action
