I'll assume you mean the jbcl version.  It's hard to give a complete
example without posting a great deal of code and without giving you
the wrong impression about the way to use the timer.  The following
code is a few bits and pieces that should get you started.  Just
implement TimerClient and call startTimer, passing an instance of the
class that implements TimerClient.  You probably already have a frame
window for your application, so the best thing would be to implement
the Timer client there.

import borland.jbcl.util.Timer;
import borland.jbcl.util.TimerClient;

class AnyClassPerhapsYourFrame implements TimerClient
{
	static int myId = 1;
	static int myOtherId = 2;

	public void TimerEvent(int id)
	{
		/* if you only have one timer, you don't need to check

		(or even use) the id */
		if(id == myId) 
		{
			// handle the timer
		}
		else if(id == myOtherId)
		{
			// handle the other id
		}
	}
}

// Elsewhere in your code:

// timer_client is an instance of AnyClassPerhapsYourFrame
// For example, if you started the timer in the constructor of
// your frame which implements TimerClient, you might use "this" in
// place of "timer_client".

//Start timer(1000 millisecond period which fires until you call stop)
// You don't need to use the id if you are handling ony one 
// timer event
Timer.startTimer(timer_client, AnyClassPerhapsYourFrame.myId, 1000,
true);

// Later to stop the timer:
Timer.stopTimer(timer_client, AnyClassPerhapsYourFrame.myId);
