      • currentTimeMillis

        public long currentTimeMillis()
        Description copied from interface: Timer

        Returns the current time in milliseconds. Note that while the unit of time of the return value is a millisecond, the granularity of the value depends on the underlying operating system and may be larger. For example, many operating systems measure time in units of tens of milliseconds.

        See the description of the class Date for a discussion of slight discrepancies that may arise between "computer time" and coordinated universal time (UTC).

        Specified by:
        currentTimeMillis in interface Timer
        Returns:
        The difference, measured in milliseconds, between the current time and midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC.
