Hi guys,

How to achieve digital time in GWT.  I try this code:

final TextBox textBox = new TextBox();

     Timer t = new Timer() {
           
            @Override
            public void run() {                 
                  textBox.setText(new Date()+"");
            }
        };
        t.schedule(1000);

but didn't work. Please help.

I did a simlar thing once where I used swing components

something like

label = new JLabel();

       

        pane.add(label);
        add(pane);
        sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");
        date = new Date();

        s = sdf.format(date);
        label.setText(s);
        setVisible(true);
        runner = new Thread(this);

        while(runner == null)
        {
            runner = new Thread(this);
            runner.start();

        }

and then

public void run()
{
    while(true)
    {
        try
        {
            Thread.sleep(1000);
            sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");
            date = new Date();
            s = sdf.format(date);
            label.setText(s);
        }
        catch(Exception e){}

    }

Yes, in my previous code I just had to add t.scheduleRepeating(1000); instead t.schedule(1000);

Scheduler.get().scheduleFixedPeriod() is what you want.
