TimerTask with a Date_Time

[kunta]

Hello my friends,

I am new to Java. I am currently learning j2me.

All I want is to play an Alert on March 3rd, 2008

This is what I have:


timer.schedule(new AlertTrigger, "hello friends") March 3rd, 2008. 6000 8000);

Can someone please help me to plug in the Date properly.

How do I create the Date Object reflecting the right values.

Hi Kunta,

As far as i see, TimerTask gets time as seconds! So you will need to find approximate number of seconds between the current date and March 3rd, 2008, and pass it to the schedule method.
