Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	schedule(@NotNull Runnable eventHandler, long initialDelayMs) Schedule a handler to run once after a delay
void	scheduleAtFixedRate(@NotNull VanillaEventHandler eventHandler, long initialDelayMs, long periodMs) uses the event loop thread to call the event handler periodically, the time that the event is called back is best-effort, but if the thread is busy that call back maybe delayed
void	scheduleAtFixedRate(@NotNull VanillaEventHandler eventHandler, long initialDelayMs, long periodMs, HandlerPriority priority) uses the event loop thread to call the event handler periodically, the time that the event is called back is best-effort, but if the thread is busy that call back maybe delayed

Method Detail

scheduleAtFixedRate

public void scheduleAtFixedRate(@NotNull
                                @NotNull VanillaEventHandler eventHandler,
                                long initialDelayMs,
                                long periodMs)

uses the event loop thread to call the event handler periodically, the time that the event is called back is best-effort, but if the thread is busy that call back maybe delayed

Parameters:

eventHandler - the handler to be called back

initialDelayMs - how long in milliseconds to wait before being called back

periodMs - the poll interval of being called

scheduleAtFixedRate

public void scheduleAtFixedRate(@NotNull
                                @NotNull VanillaEventHandler eventHandler,
                                long initialDelayMs,
                                long periodMs,
                                HandlerPriority priority)

uses the event loop thread to call the event handler periodically, the time that the event is called back is best-effort, but if the thread is busy that call back maybe delayed

Parameters:

eventHandler - the handler to be called back

initialDelayMs - how long in milliseconds to wait before being called back

periodMs - the poll interval of being called

priority - the priority of the event handler

schedule

public void schedule(@NotNull
                     @NotNull Runnable eventHandler,
                     long initialDelayMs)

Schedule a handler to run once after a delay

Parameters:

eventHandler - the handler to be called back

initialDelayMs - how long in milliseconds to wait before being called back
