How to make artificial delay in pl/sql on forms

Question

hi gurus,
I am using
Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2 (Production)
Oracle Toolkit Version 10.1.2.0.2 (Production)
PL/SQL Version 10.1.0.4.2 (Production)
Oracle Procedure Builder V10.1.2.0.2 - ProductionActually I am making Bulk SMS sending program using java classes. code works in java plateform very nicely..
same class I am calling on oracle forms , but code executes even less then a second . but I wanna stop the execution of pl/sql stored procedure for 3 seconds untill java class sends sms to the recipeint's number.. and then iterate towards the next one.
for example
  for i in 1..100 loop
      stored_procedure_having_javaclass(org1 ,arg2);
      deley_of_secends(3);
   end loop;for this i have tried..
        dbms_look.sleep(3);while using this on database level in anonymous block it's working very fine , I think to make a stored procedure and then call it on oracle forms , but when use this same in stored procedure it gives me error that this fucntion must be declared , also I can't use any of this kind function in oracle forms.
what should I do ?
thanks

Other alternative...
As you use java stored procedure... put the
Thread.sleep(m_sec);inside your java procedure...
or.. (some example)...
DROP JAVA SOURCE INIS_PROD."Sleep";
CREATE OR REPLACE AND RESOLVE JAVA SOURCE NAMED "Sleep"
as import java.io.*;
public class Sleep extends Object
   public static void sleep()
      try
         Thread.sleep(3000);  //<----------- you can also put input param if you want..
      catch(Exception ex)
}plsql wrapp
create or replace procedure p_sleep
as language java name 
'Sleep.sleep() ';and test..
begin
   p_sleep;
   dbms_output.put_line('ooo');
end;
