Class Timer

java.lang.Object

com.google.gwt.user.client.Timer

public static class Timer
extends Object

A simplified, browser-safe timer class. This class serves the same purpose as java.util.Timer, but is simplified because of the single-threaded environment.

To schedule a timer, simply create a subclass of it (overriding #run) and call #schedule or #scheduleRepeating.

NOTE: If you are using a timer to schedule a UI animation, use AnimationScheduler instead. The browser can optimize your animation for maximum performance.
