Android下使用Runnable简化Timer

Android中的Timer一般像下面这样写:

Timer timer = new Timer( );
TimerTask task = new TimerTask( ) {
    public void run ( ) {
        Message message = new Message( );
        message.what = 1;
        handler.sendMessage(message);
    }
};
final Handler handler = new Handler( ) {
	public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
		switch (msg.what) {
		case 1:
			log.e("Timer","Timer");
			update( );
				break;
		}
		super.handleMessage(msg);
	}
};
protected void onDestroy ( ) {
	if (timer != null) {
		timer.cancel( );
		timer = null;
	}
	super.onDestroy( );
}
protected void onCreate (Bundle savedInstanceState) {
	super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
	this.setContentView(R.layout.main);
	timer.schedule(task,1000,5000);
} 

 最重要的一点是 timer.schedule(task,1000,5000),如果设置为 timer.schedule(task,5000)是不会工作的。

因为timer.schedule(task,5000) 是表示执行一次的任务。
 timer.schedule(task,1000,5000)表示 1 秒钟后开始 5 秒钟为周期 重复执行,
 更好的方法是通过下面的代码 (Handler加Runnable线程,更简洁)

private Handler handler = new Handler( );
private Runnable runnable = new Runnable( ) {
	public void run ( ) {
		update( );
		handler.postDelayed(this,1000);
		//postDelayed(this,1000)方法安排一个Runnable对象到主线程队列中
	}
};
handler.postDelayed(runnable,1000); // 开始Timer
handler.removeCallbacks(runnable); //停止Timer 

本文结束
