Question

Why am i getting an error with the timer? below the code it states what the error is. I cant figure out what im doing wrong…. can anyone help me

       import java.util.Timer;
       import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
       import javax.swing.JPanel;

       /**
        *
      * @author Rich
      */
     public class Board extends JPanel implements ActionListener{
         Dude p;
        Image img;
       Timer time;

        public Board() {
         p = new Dude();
        addKeyListener(new AL());
         setFocusable(true);
          ImageIcon i = new ImageIcon("images.jpg");
          img = i.getImage();
          time = new Timer(5,this);
          time.start();
        }

        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        p.move();
        repaint();
         }

Basically the error im getting is

no  suitable constructor found for Timer(int,OurGame.Board)
constructor java.util.Timer.Timer(java.lang.String,boolean) is not applicable
  (actual argument int cannot be converted to java.lang.String by method invocation conversion)
constructor java.util.Timer.Timer(java.lang.String) is not applicable
  (actual and formal argument lists differ in length)
constructor java.util.Timer.Timer(boolean) is not applicable
  (actual and formal argument lists differ in length)
constructor java.util.Timer.Timer() is not applicable
  (actual and formal argument lists differ in length)

You should import javax.swing.Timer instead of java.util.Timer.
