Example showing thread methods, continued

• The body of the applet is in the run method, in this case a loop to keep showing the date.

public void run ( )

{ Thread thisThread = Thread.currentThread();

// loop as long as thread is defined while runner == thisThread)

{ theDate = new Date ( );

repaint ( );

try { thisThread.sleep ( 1000); }

catch ( InterruptedExecution e) { }

}

}

public void paint ( Graphics g )

{ g.setFont ( theFont );

g.drawString ( theDate.toString ( ), 10, 50 );

}

}
