Class SimpleTimer

java.lang.Object

net.i2p.util.SimpleTimer

public class SimpleTimer
extends Object

Simple event scheduler - toss an event on the queue and it gets fired at the appropriate time. The method that is fired however should NOT block (otherwise they b0rk the timer). WARNING - Deprecated. This is an inefficient mess. Use SimpleTimer2 if possible.

Method Detail

addEvent

public void addEvent(SimpleTimer.TimedEvent event,
                     long timeoutMs)

Queue up the given event to be fired no sooner than timeoutMs from now. However, if this event is already scheduled, the event will be scheduled for the earlier of the two timeouts, which may be before this stated timeout. If this is not the desired behavior, call removeEvent first.

Parameters:

event - the event to schedule

timeoutMs - the delay in milliseconds before the event should fire

addEvent

public void addEvent(SimpleTimer.TimedEvent event,
                     long timeoutMs,
                     boolean useEarliestTime)

Queue up the given event to be fired no sooner than timeoutMs from now.

Parameters:

event - the event to schedule

timeoutMs - the delay in milliseconds before the event should fire

useEarliestTime - if already scheduled, use the earlier of the two timeouts, else use the later

removeEvent

public boolean removeEvent(SimpleTimer.TimedEvent evt)

removeSimpleTimer

public void removeSimpleTimer()

Removes the SimpleTimer.

reschedule

public void reschedule(SimpleTimer.TimedEvent event,
                       long timeoutMs)

Reschedule an existing event.

Parameters:

event - the event to reschedule

timeoutMs - the new timeout in milliseconds
