Hi, I would like to schedule a task at a particular time every day with java.util.Timer. If I would to use the schedule(TimerTask, Date, DAY_IN_MILLIS) method, I would need to be very careful as it should be sometime in the future, else the schedule won't run at all ie: if it should run at 10:00pm everyday but the Timer start (Timer object created and schedule method called) at 11:00pm, nothing would ever happened! Therefore, I would like to know whether there is any good solutions to this. What I can think of is to add 1 day to the Date if it is already past. The next thing I can think of is to use the schedule(TimerTask, 0, DAYS_IN_MILLIS) method and check the time manually in the run() method. What's your opinion?
