Borland has provided some Timer functionality with the
borland.jbcl.util.Timer class and the borland.jbcl.util.TimerClient
interface.

Implement TimerClient in one of your classes (if you implement it in a
frame, it will be similar to C++ Builder where you implement the timer
event handler in your form's code).

Next create a Timer instance and call the startTimer function.  Later
you can call the stopTimer if you wish.

If you have a problem using Borland classes, you could use
javax.swing.Timer from JDK 1.2 or create your own class using Threads.
The basic idea is to spawn a new thread which sleeps for the period of
the timer then fires and event.
