Java equivelant of setInterval in javascript

Question

Basically I want a function to be called every say, 10 milliseconds.

How can I achieve that in Java?

Answer 1

I would say you would create a thread and in the thread loop add a System.sleep(10) to make the thread "sleep" for 10 ms before continuing.

Answer 2

You might want to take a look at Timer.

Answer 3

Check out java.util.Timer

Answer 4

You could also use a ScheduleExecutorService.
