Interface TimerListener

All Known Subinterfaces:

CancelTimerListener, StopTimerListener

public interface TimerListener

Objects that implement this interface and are supplied to one of the TimerManager#schedule methods can receieve timer notifications. When the timer expires, the TimerListener.timerExpired(commonj.timers.Timer) method is called and the Timer object that has expired is provided.

When the timer expires, the TimerListener.timerExpired(commonj.timers.Timer) method is invoked. The Timer object passed in is the Timer that was returned when the TimerListener was originally scheduled. If the TimerListener was scheduled with a period, then the same Timer object is passed to the TimerListener on each invocation.

The J2EE context active on the thread during TimerListener scheduling will be applied to the timerExpired method. See TimerManager for details.
