Re: How to simulate Thread.sleep in GWT?
There's really no good answer. JavaScript isn't multi-threaded, so there's no way to do anything like Java's Thread.sleep(). Since there's no real equivalent, the answer always boils down to what precisely are you trying to accomplish?

I want to stall my program for a few seconds at certain points, but the only way I've seen to do this (using a Timer) is not addressing my needs. How do I pause my program for a certain number of seconds? ps - The Timer function is not what I want because all commands after the Timer's schedule command continue to run. Execution is interrupted only when the timer goes off. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: How to simulate Thread.sleep in GWT?
GwtTestCase has support for waiting until an asynchronous part of the test is complete - check out the delayTestFinish(int) and finishTest() methods. Beyond that, there really is no way to generally pause execution. You can use one timer to watch another timer, and call cancel on it if it runs for too long, though because JavaScript is singly threaded, you can't cancel something already in progress. For that, you want to break up your command into smaller pieces (using something like the Scheduler and RepeatingCommand). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: How to simulate Thread.sleep in GWT?
Could you just have the final part of the test *be* the firing of the timer? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.
