wait

I can't get the .delay method working in jQuery: $.delay(3000); // not working $(queue).delay(3000); // not working I'm using a while loop to wait until an uncontrolled changing value is greater than or equal to another and I can't find any way to hault execution for X seconds. $.delay is used to delay animations in a queue, not halt execution. Instead of using a while loop, you need to recursively call a method that performs the check every second using setTimeout : var check = function(){ if(condition){ // run when condition is met } else { setTimeout(check, 1000); // check again in a second

I want that my program wait 10s in my while true, but it doesn't work I tried to use Thread.sleep(10000); but it isn't 10s while (true) { for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++) { for (int j = 0; j < 5; j++) { if (matrixVacancy[i][j] == 1) { completeParking(i, j, R.color.vaga_ocupada); } else { completeParking(i, j, R.color.cor_chao); } } } try { Thread.sleep(10000); } catch (InterruptedException ex) { } int a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i; a = (int) (Math.random() * 2); // indice i b = (int) (Math.random() * 5); // indice j c = (int) (Math.random() * 2); // tem ou nao carro d = (int) (Math.random() * 2); //

So I'm using in my android program A thread to wait a second or more, but sometimes it does it wright and sometimes it doesn't wait at all, so is there maybe another way to wait a couple of seconds? Thread logotimer = new Thread(){ public void run(){ try{ sleep(1500); Intent leveloverview = new Intent("com.technopolisapp.FROGLEVEL"); startActivity(leveloverview); } catch(InterruptedException e){ e.printStackTrace(); } finally{ finish(); } } }; logotimer.start(); vishesh chandra Instead the thread sleeping concept you can use Handler... new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable(){ public void run(

I'm trying to make a simple script for a game, by changing the time of day, but I want to do it in a fast motion. So this is what I'm talking about: function disco ( hour, minute) setTime ( 1, 0 ) SLEEP setTime ( 2, 0 ) SLEEP setTime ( 3, 0 ) end and so on. How would I go about doing this? Lua doesn't provide a standard sleep function, but there are several ways to implement one, see Sleep Function for detail. For Linux, this may be the easiest one: function sleep(n) os.execute("sleep " .. tonumber(n)) end In Windows, you can use ping : function sleep(n) if n > 0 then os.execute("ping -n " ..

I did find a few places where it was told how to do this but it was either super inconvenient or just didnt work.. ( the guys own example did not work.. ) Basically i have background images that i would like to show at the same time instead of letting them to load in to the document when ever they please... I dont necessarily need them to be loaded first or anything but to wait until specific background images load up and then show their parent div.. Also if its possible.. it would make big difference if those background images could be defined to be loaded through classes rather than

In Java threads, you could have some number of threads in a list, start them off, and have a main thread join one, then another, going through and waiting for all processes to complete before moving on. In other models, I'm not sure how you would do that. Take the RootTools 3.0 Command class for example. You create a Command which has three methods, commandOutput , commandFinished , commandTerminated , and while you can use a callback to do something at the end of a process, I don't know how you would wait for multiple processes (For example, going through listing of several directories and

This question already has an answer here: Wait until all jQuery Ajax requests are done? 22 answers I have some ajax calls in my document.ready() like : for (j=1; j <= 7; j++){ (function(index) { $.getJSON('my.php', {id:index}, function(data) { $.each(data, function(index2, array){ ........ }); }); })(j) } //DO NOT CONTINUE UNTIL FINISH AJAX CALLS ........ MORE JQUERY CODE How can i force it to wait and not continue until we get all the call backs from the ajax requests ? I do not like any answer at all, the best way (since Jquery 1.5+) is to use Deferred objects, those are objects to
