回掉(callback)是一种常见的程序设计模式。在这种模式中,可以指出摸个特定事件发生时应该采取的动作。下面是一个简单的演示程序。
package timer;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.util.Date;
public class TimerTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ActionListener listener = new TimePrinter();
//construct a timer that calls the listener
//once every 10 seconds
Timer t = new Timer(10000, listener);
t.start();
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Quit program?");
System.exit(0);
}
}
class TimePrinter implements ActionListener {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
Date now = new Date();
System.out.println("At the tone, the time is " + now);
Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().beep();
}
}
