Android: simple time counter

Question

I have a simple program with one TextView and two Buttons: Button1 and Button2.

Clicking on Button 1 will start a counter, increasing by 1 every 1 second and show res

Answer 1

You can introduce flag. Something like isPaused. Trigger this flag whenever 'Pause' button pressed. Check flag value in your timer task. Success.

Timer T=new Timer();
T.scheduleAtFixedRate(new TimerTask() {         
        @Override
        public void run() {
            runOnUiThread(new Runnable()
            {
                @Override
                public void run()
                {
                    myTextView.setText("count="+count);
                    count++;                
                }
            });
        }
    }, 1000, 1000);


 onClick(View v)
 {
      //this is 'Pause' button click listener
      T.cancel();
 }
