Question

Hi
I need to create a service that runs a piece of code in new thread after (let us say) 10 mins. How can I do that? I have service ready but I don’t seem to understand how (if ) to call timer from within thread. can any one help?

After some (more) searching on StackOverFlow I found something that helps me

 final Handler handler = new Handler();
    final Runnable r = new Runnable()
    {
        public void run() 
                {
                    // code here what ever is required
                    handler.postDelayed(this, 10*600);
                }
            };

   handler.postDelayed(r, 10*600);
