How to kill all swing.Timer(s) at end of App

I am using a javax.swing.Timer to cause text to flash in the text field. However, I noticed that if this timer is running when I stop my app, the timer's thread is still running. It appears that the class that has the timer is not being garbage collected immediately upon application exit. Is there a way to kill all swing timers?
Thanks,
John

No. This is a class whose implementation I was hoping the main application would not have to know about. I was hoping that since I was using swing timers that when the application on which thread the swing timers are executing exited, all the swing timers attached to that application would be stopped.
Do you have a suggestion how I might be able to do this? I have an application "A" that uses a library class "B" method that happens to start a timer. I do not want "A" to have to explicitly stop "B" when the application is ending. Is there a way I can tag the timer so that it will stop when "A" exits? Or could I somehow link "B" to "A" so that a dispose method on "B" is called when "A" exits or disposes?
Thanks,
John

  • I bought a used iphone 4 today. how to transfer all my old and important data including apps and email settings from old iphone 3gs to the used iphone 4?

    i bought a used iphone 4 today. how to transfer all my old and important data including apps and email settings from old iphone 3gs to the used iphone 4? that means, making the iphone 4 just like the iphone 3gs?

    Well, you sink everything on your 3GS onto your laptop/computer. Then you reset your iPhone 4. When you are restarting it, add all those apps music (ect)  On to it. It seems difucult but for more info call Apple. I did that and he lead me step by step on how to do it. Well hope this helped~~

    I need to remove all log files from database dir.
    Just the data file must be in database diretory after the application ends.
    I´v tried:
    1 - set_flags(DB_LOG_AUTOREMOVE, 1);
    2 - txn_checkpoint(0, 0, DB_FORCE);
    But ways one log file reminds.
    Any bory nows how remove all log files at application end ?
    I really need this. How can i do that in C++ ?
    Thanks,
    DelNeto

    Here's how I solved it
    // At end of app.
    // Commit tables.
    pdbParam     ->sync(0);
    pdbUser     ->sync(0);
    // Close tables.
    pdbParam     ->close(0);
    pdbUser     ->close(0);
    // Delete table objects.
    delete     m_pdbParam;
    delete     m_pdbUser;
    // Commit all changes to the database.
    penvDbEnv->txn_checkpoint(0, 0, DB_FORCE);
    penvDbEnv->close(0);
    delete penvDbEnv;
    // Remove all logs files comes here.
    DbEnv *penvDbEnv;
    penvDbEnv = new DbEnv(0);
    ui32EnvFlags = DB_CREATE |
    DB_PRIVATE |
    DB_INIT_LOCK |
    DB_INIT_LOG |
    DB_INIT_MPOOL |
    DB_THREAD |
    DB_INIT_TXN;
    // Open the environment with full transactional support.
    iResult = penvDbEnv->open("..\\database", ui32EnvFlags, 0);
    // Get the list of log files.
    char **pLogFilLis;
    char **pLogFilLisBegin;
    iResult = penvDbEnv->log_archive(&pLogFilLis, DB_ARCH_ABS | B_ARCH_LOG);
    // This line resets the log sequence numbers from the database file.
    // No actual log file is associated with the database.
    iResult = penvDbEnv->lsn_reset("..\\database\\DATABASE.db", 0);
    // Remove the log files.
    if(pLogFilLis!= NULL)
    // I don´t now how put spaces and tabs here, sorry about the "___".;-).
    __for(pLogFilLisBegin = pLogFilLis; *pLogFilLis != NULL; ++pLogFilLis)
    ____iResult = remove(*pLogFilLis);
    __free(pLogFilLisBegin);
    // At this point no more log files exists at database directory.
    penvDbEnv->close(0);
    delete penvDbEnv;
    // If i need remove the environment files, do this.
    penvDbEnv = new DbEnv(0);
    penvDbEnv->remove(("..\\database", 0);
    delete m_penvDbEnv;
    Thanks to Bogdan Coman for show me the way

  • Don't know how to use the swing timer

    Hi there,
    I did this stupid game for training purposes: There are 3 buttons, 2 of them are "correct", 1 exits the program and you lost.
    It works so far but when clicking the "wrong" button I thought of changing the frame to red, let the program wait for another second and only then closing the window. But somehow that doesn't work. I understand that I have to use the timer class, but somehow I don't really know how.
    Thanks for helping.
    Modify the program of Exercise 3 so that only one button exits the program. If the user clicks on any of the other two
    buttons, the frame just changes color. The user keeps clicking until the "loosing button" is clicked. The user's goal
    is to click as many times as possible.
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.util.Random;
    public class Kap59A4 extends JFrame implements ActionListener
      JButton button1 ;
      JButton button2 ;
      JButton button3 ;
      JLabel noGames ;
      int gameCounter = 0;
      // constructor
      public Kap59A4(String title)                          
        super( title );
        button1 = new JButton("Button 1");
        button2 = new JButton("Button 2");
        button3 = new JButton("Button 3");
        noGames = new JLabel("Game#:  ");
        // register the Kap59A4 frame as the listener for the button.
        button1.addActionListener( this );
        button2.addActionListener( this );
        button3.addActionListener( this );
        setLayout( new FlowLayout() );
        add( button1 );
        add( button2 );
        add( button3 );
        add( noGames );
        setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE );  
      public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent evt)
        Random rand = new Random();
        int number = Math.abs( rand.nextInt() )%3; // number gets a number from 0 to 2
        if (number != 0)
          gameCounter++;
          noGames.setText("Game#: "+ gameCounter);
          getContentPane().setBackground( Color.green );
          repaint();
        else
          getContentPane().setBackground( Color.red );
          new Timer(1000, this).start();
          System.exit(0);
      public static void main ( String[] args )
        Kap59A4 demo  = new Kap59A4( "Click a Button" ) ;
        demo.setSize( 300, 100 );    
        demo.setVisible( true );     
    }

    Rather than pass the Timer constructor this, which would be the JFrame itself, thus resulting in the action handler for the buttons being invoked again, you should probably pass it a whole different ActionListener instance that performs the precise action you want to happen a second later.
    And actually, you should probably do that for all the buttons as well -- give each an inner class implementing ActionListener so you can control the behavior of each button, and don't make the JFrame subclass implement ActionListener. Furthermore, I'd advise against subclassing JFrame.

  • How to display all data on one page in web app

    Hello.
    So I have web app JSF (IceFaces framework) + JBoss all Crystal Report working perfectly. So I have page with Crystal Report tags (e.g.
    <bocrv:reportPageViewer reportSource="#{crystalReport.reportPath}" ...
    in this report I have table with some data (data from DB) and I want to display this data on one page. Unfortunately now this data are moving to the next page and unfortunately I even donu2019t know how switch to the next page (I see only info e.g. 1with 2).
    So how to display this data on one page if its impossible how to torn on pagination.

    So I canu2019t do this, I canu2019t display all data on one page (until Iu2019m using JSF tags)?
    In JSF tags Iu2019m setting only path to file. In my bean Iu2019m using u201CReportClientDocumentu201D object itu2019s easy way to load report file (u201Copenu201D method) and set parameters (u201CgetDataDefController().getParameterFieldController()u201D method) and also connect to data base (u201Clogonu201D method) but I havenu2019t this property u201CsetSeparatePages(boolean)u201D.
    Maybe Iu2019m doing this wrong and there is a simpler way maybe I can use somehow u201CCrystalReportVieweru201D please give my any advice.

  • Outlook 2007 popups for credentials all the time at the end of creation new profile

    Hello all,
    I have a new exchange 2013 cu7 for which client role is load balanced. There is no problem creating and working with outlook profiles on Win 7 pc's with outlook 2010.
    We have 2 terminal servers with Windows 2003 and Outlook 2007 installed (last patches for office3). When I try to create a new profile, I am asked to enter credentials at the end. Password is correct, but it continues to ask for it. The only way is to choose
    cancel, but thus profile will not be created.
    OutlookAnywhere settings:
    InternalURL exists
    Works with SSL
    Authentication NTLM
    ExternalURL empty
    Works with SSL
    Authentication NTLM
    (Reminder- only these 2 terminal do this problem- they are located in a closed environment- I opened 443 port to exchange client rule servers and client VIP (configured as Internal hostname)).
    Any help appreciated!

    Try using Set-OutlookProvider and setting the EXCH and EXPR Providers.

    Set-OutlookProvider EXPR msstd:<Common Name of Cert>

  • I keep having request for ITunes to log in, that is not my account name. I have never used that account. It pops up all the time,and it stops everything that I am working on. How can I get rid of that prompt?

    I am having trouble with an ITunes I'd request to log in that is not my ITunes ID. E request pops up all the time. It stops the app or net site every time. Like I said it is not my ID. How can I stop or delete this ID?

    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID. What ID is in the settings. Tap on that ID to change it. Sign Out. Sign in with your own ID. After you sign out with the incorrect ID, restart the iPad before you sign into your correct account.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go to Settings>Store and sign in.

  • How to close all opened apps?

    How do you close all opened apps? I do not think sliding the app card off the screen closes the app, so how do you completely close them?
    Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

    ... which does not directly answer the question...
    Direct answer: you can't.
    Here is what the User Guide says:
    To close an application or a screen, in Card view (see Manage
    applications in Card view), throw the card off the top of the screen. If
    cards are in a stack (see Work with stacked cards), you can only throw
    one card at a time.
    You close the apps by throwing the card away, plain and simple.
    @direstrates:  Are you asking how to kill all running apps with one command?  Only way I know how is by doing the two-finger reboot.

    There is a world of information in these forums if you use the search function near the top right of this page. Just type in NAS for example and you get many threads on the subject (marked with a green checkmark if it solved the question) another example would be Airport Exterme and sound system. Once you formulate your ideas better then specific questions can be addressed one at a time. You may find that a less expensive choice for a server might be a mac mini. Good luck with your project, ask more specific questions and update you systems profile.
