Chapter 28. Using Timer Tasks
DO OR DIE:
Start a task to run repeatedly at a certain interval
Start a task after a specified delay
Start a task to run at a specific time
This topic elucidates the use of tasks, made available to us via the java.util.TimerTask API. This is a wonderfully practical and easy-to-use API.
