Set up a Timer to repeatedly execute a piece of code or a task or to repeatedly update the state of your objects

Lets say, you have an integer field and you want to increment it by 5 every minute.

public class TimerTest {
      private int theValue = 0;
      private javax.swing.Timer timer1 = null;

      public TimerTest() {
            //Set up the timer to perform the action repeatedly
             //after a delay of 1 minute which is 60000 milliseconds.
            timer1 = new javax.swing.Timer(60000, new TimerAction());
            timer1.start();

      }

      private class TimerAction implements ActionListener {
            @Override
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                  theValue += 5;
                  System.out.println("The value currently is "+theValue);
            }
      }
}
