java定时器设置超时时间,设置定时器超时 - 新的Timer（）失败后，取消和清除

I have some location finding code and while I'm waiting for a read of an appropriate accuracy I'd also like to have a timeout and use whatever the best location read is up to that point.

I seem to be misunderstanding how to cancel and restart a timer.

I want to start a timeout timer when I begin my search and restart the timer every time I repeat my search...

private void refreshLocation() {

if (locationTimeoutTimer != null) {

locationTimeoutTimer.cancel();

locationTimeoutTimer.purge();

}

locationTimeoutTimer = new Timer();

locationTimeoutTimer.schedule(timeoutReached, 60000);

//Do other things...

}

However, I get the following error whenever this refreshLocation is called a second time.

java.lang.IllegalStateException: TimerTask is scheduled already

Your code is very similar to code I have - that is working. But some differences I notice are that

you may need to create the new timer as a named daemon - for example locationTimer = new Timer("locationtimer", true);

you may need to create a new TimerTask each time you schedule (I assume timeoutReached is the TimerTask?) - for example locationTimer.schedule(new timeoutReached(), 60000);
