Android - 希望应用程序每秒执行任务
我试图让我的倒计时应用程序执行其更新当前时间和日期 TextView 的功能,并每秒触发其 MyOnItemSelectedListener ,以便应用程序动态倒计时,而不是仅在启动 onCreate 时进行倒计时。如果有一种更有效的方法,然后快速触发 MyOnItemSelectedListener 我将不胜感激。

I'm trying to get my countdown app to perform its function of updating my current time and date TextView and fire off its MyOnItemSelectedListener every second so that the app counts down dynamically instead of just when onCreate is initiated. If there is a more efficient method then rapidly firing off MyOnItemSelectedListener I would appreciate the criticism.

尝试使用如下所示的
UpdateDisplay
函数:最后,您必须在
onCreate()
函数中调用updateDisplay()
。我希望这段代码能帮助你完成你想要的!
Try to use
UpdateDisplay
function like below:Finally, you must to call
updateDisplay()
inonCreate()
function.I hope this code would help you finish what you want !
要在主线程上运行它:
To run it on the main thread:
您可以使用
sendMessageAtTime()
或postAtTime()
稍后向自己发送一条消息,然后进行处理。了解更多信息。
You can either use
sendMessageAtTime()
orpostAtTime()
to send yourself a message a second in the future, and handle it then.For more information.
也许您还可以使用 Timer/TimerTask 重复触发操作: https:// developer.android.com/reference/java/util/Timer.html
Maybe you can also use Timer/TimerTask to fire a operation repeatedly: https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/Timer.html
