Waiting until a condition is true

I have my own code for it:

Code (Text):

1. public class Waiting {
2.  
3.     public static boolean waitFor(final Condition c, final long timeout) {
4.         final long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
5.         System.out.println("Waiting on a condition for max " + timeout + " ms");
6.         while (System.currentTimeMillis() - start < timeout && !c.validate()) {
7.             Execution.delay(20, 30);
8.         }
9.         System.out.println("Waited, returning " + c.validate());
10.         return c.validate();
11.     }
12.  
13.     public interface Condition {
14.         public boolean validate();
15.     }
16.  
17. }

Feel free to use it.

 

I never realized it was in Execution, lmao.

I guess I'll switch to the built in version asap, then.

 

To be more specific, Execution.delayUntil(Callable, frequency, timeout) or Execution.delayUntil(Callable, timeout)

In one of the coming releases, the formers parameters will be changed to (Callable, mintimeout, maxtimeout)
