Class TimerScheduler

java.lang.Object
  net.java.sip.communicator.impl.protocol.sip.TimerScheduler

public class TimerScheduler
extends Object

Represents an analogy of Timer which does not have the disadvantage of Timer to always create its thread at construction time. It also allows the currently scheduled TimerTasks to be canceled while still being able to schedule new TimerTasks later on.
