org.graffiti.util.DelayThread

All Implemented Interfaces:

Runnable

public class DelayThread
extends Thread

This delay thread will help prevent too many calls in short time by catching the calls and only giving the last stored event after a short period of time to the actual event handler using a callback mechanism If it has delivered the event it will trigger "wait" and halt the thread A new event will then wake up the thread.
