Method Detail

getInstance

public static IstiSwingEventQueue getInstance()

Get the Swing event queue.

Returns:

the Swing event queue.

getPeriod

public static int getPeriod()

Get the period.

Returns:

the time in milliseconds between successive task executions.

invokeLater

public static boolean invokeLater(java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicLong atomicLong,
                                  long time,
                                  java.lang.Runnable runnable)

Causes doRun.run() to be executed asynchronously on the AWT event dispatching thread at or slightly after the specified time.

The Runnable will only be called if the atomicLong value is set to 0 which happens after it is run in order to allow the caller to know if it has already been run or not.

Parameters:

atomicLong - the time to check before running,

time - time at which the Runnable is to be executed.

runnable - the Runnable whose run to be executed.

true - if the Runnable will be executed, false otherwise.

invokeLater

public static void invokeLater(java.lang.Number time,
                               java.lang.Runnable runnable)

Causes doRun.run() to be executed asynchronously on the AWT event dispatching thread at or slightly after the specified time.

If the time is an AtomicLong then the time value is set to 0 after it is run in order to allow the caller to know if it has already been run or not.

Parameters:

time - time at which the Runnable is to be executed.

runnable - the Runnable whose run to be executed.

setPeriod

public static boolean setPeriod(int ms)

Set the period for checking the events. This only succeeds if called prior to any events being queued.

Parameters:

ms - the time in milliseconds between successive task executions, must be greater than 0.

Returns:

true if set, false otherwise.
