    public class SimpleTimer2

extends Object

Simple event scheduler - toss an event on the queue and it gets fired at the appropriate time. The method that is fired however should NOT block (otherwise they b0rk the timer). This rewrites the old SimpleTimer to use the java.util.concurrent.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor. SimpleTimer has problems with lock contention; this should work a lot better. This supports cancelling and arbitrary rescheduling. If you don't need that, use SimpleScheduler instead. SimpleTimer is deprecated, use this or SimpleScheduler.
