java.lang.Object

org.das2.util.TickleTimer

public class TickleTimer
extends java.lang.Object

TickleTimer is a timer that fires once it's been left alone for a while. The idea is the keyboard can be pecked away and the change event will not be fired until the keyboard is idle. This is a copy of the TickleTimer used in Autoplot. java.util.Timer performs very similar functionality.
