如何在非swing/数据库应用程序中用java设置计时器

是否可以在Java控制台应用程序中创建以秒为单位的计时器？那么，是否可以说计数10秒；打印一份声明；再计算10秒，然后打印另一条语句等。如果是这样，我怎么做？

它会停止线程，在本例中，程序会停止数毫秒。请看一下java文档，了解这是否有帮助

    // This is how to print with a delay
    // Thread.sleep stops the program executoin for an amount of time
    System.out.println("String 1");


    try {
        Thread.sleep(1000);  // Thread.sleep takes in milliseconds
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    System.out.println("String 2");

    // This is how to count down with a delay. Its accuracy is questionable, because
    // printing and increminting k take time, but it should be very close to a second.
    for(int k = 10; k > 0; k--)
    {
        System.out.println(k);

        try {
            Thread.sleep(1000);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

    }
