When I put the code below in NetBeans, NetBeans gives me a warning next to it saying "Accessing static method sleep". try { Thread.currentThread().sleep(2000); } catch(InterruptedException ie){ //continue } Am I doing something wrong? Should I be calling this differently? I'm n...
Hello . I have some UIImageViews and when the user is touching, an animation with a certain duration starts. A trigger counts ++ and with the next touch another animation starts to play. But if the user touches to fast or make a doubletouch the first animation does not finish until the last frame. I tried the "sleep()" command, but it d...
I'm trying to run a loop every second for 25 seconds basically. for($i = 0; $i <= 25; $i += 1){ echo $i; sleep(1) } The thing is it doesn't output until it's fully done, so after the loop continues 25 times. Is there a way to do this so it will output before each sleep? and not wait until the full loop is complete? Thanks...

Hi. I am trying to acquire a wake lock in a broadcast receiver so that my alarm clock application can wake the phone from sleep. It crashes at the following line in the code below: PowerManager.WakeLock wl = pm.newWakeLock(PowerManager.SCREEN_DIM_WAKE_LOCK, "My Tag"); Any ideas what's going on? Is there a better way to do this? Tha...
Hi, I try to use a picker view for simulating some device in a gaming room, by rolling during some time and dusplaying an alertview. Unfortunately, the code doesn't work because when the animated parameter is set to YES, the next instruction forbids the picker to roll softly until the wanted value. Here's a bit of the code: [picker ...
Does anyone know of a way to query OS X in order to find out how much time is actually left before it enters either system sleep or activates the display sleep (or even disk sleep), either via the command line, or any other method (Ruby or Objective-C for instance)? I thought something like pmset via the command line might have offered ...
In a multithreaded C++ program, I have the equivalent of this running in one thread: while(obj->member) { } // waiting for obj->member to be set to false in another thread and in another thread, obj->member is set to false. Even when it's set to false, however, the loop doesn't break. If I change it to this: while(obj->member) { Slee...
To all coders and creative ppl out there, what to do when you go to bed and the brain starts to boil ideas non stop and don't shut down? This is always happening to me and makes my days very hard, because then I get very tierd to work or do anything at all. I don't do drugs or stimulants, it's just ideas and a real stack overflow! It's ...
In NetBeans, there's a new hint that says: Thread.sleep called in loop. Question 1: How/when can it be a problem to sleep in a loop? Question 2: If it's a problem, what should I do instead? UPDATE: Question 3: Here's some code. Tell me in this case if I should be using something else instead of Thread.Sleep in a loop. In short, this i...
I would like to do a cron job every 10 minutes, but my system only does 1 hour. So I'm looking for a method to do this. I've seen Timer and sleep but I'm not sure how to do this or even better yet a resource for achieving this. ...
I am finding often the need to very often wait until the next second to do the next operation in a series. This slows down unit tests quite considerably. So here's my question: Instead of doing Thread.sleep(1000) is there a quicker more efficient way to sleep until the second changes to the next second? Say the time is 1:00:89 I slee...
Hi, I wrote a little widget for Android devices. The widget uses AlarmManager to set recurring updates. I'm using the RTC clock for the AlarmManager. According to the documentation, if the device is sleeping, the RTC clock wont wake up the device and the next update will be when the device is woken. I have a log file for the widget w...
I would like to add a delay/sleep inside a while loop: I tried it like this: alert('hi'); for (var start = 1; start < 10; start++) setTimeout(function () { alert('hello'); }, 3000); Only the first scenario is true: after showing alert('hi'), it will be waiting for 3 seconds then alert('hello') will be displayed but then alert('...
I'm running a running a simple daemon test in c++. It runs fine without the sleep() but if I add sleep() func it runs once then stays a sleep. Further the first run should print once "Hello" in logs/log.dat file but that doesn't happen either. Here is the code: #include <cstdlib> #include <cstdio> #include <iostream> #includ...

I am using a timer in my C++ code through setitimer function from sys/time.h. This maps the SIGALRM signal to my timer handler method. After this I am not able to use sleep function. I am assuming it is because sleep uses SIGALRM signal as well. Can you suggest any workaround for this problem? Thanks for replying. ...
In a c++ program run on Win7, is there a way to fake a mouse movement or something like that, just to keep the screen saver from starting and the system from going to sleep? I'm looking for the minimal approach and I prefer not to use .NET. Thanks, -nuun ...
Hello! I've recently read section 5.5.2 (Spinlocks and Atomic Context) of LDDv3 book: Avoiding sleep while holding a lock can be more difficult; many kernel functions can sleep, and this behavior is not always well documented. Copying data to or from user space is an obvious example: the required user-space page may need to be swapp...
This is purely for learning more about output buffering and nothing more. What I wish to do is echo a string to the browser, sleep 10 seconds, and then echo something else. Normally the browser would wait the full 10 seconds and then post the whole result, how I would I stop that? An example: ob_start(); echo "one"; sleep(10); echo "two...
