finding time

[Junaid2pac]

im wondering how i can use a timer in java. is there any timer built in java, if not how would i make my own. For ex start counting time if something happens and then stop when something else happens.

you do not want to make anything thats already made... look in the api, im sure theres a timer class, but heres a quick sample you can use

code:

class Test {  public static void main(String[] args)  {    long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis(); // do something       long endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();    System.out.println(endTime-startTime);  } }
