How to start the scheduler at mid-night and schedule at 24 hours interval(every day midnight) ?

TimerTask timerTask = new TimerTask();
Timer timer = new Timer(true);
timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(timerTask, 0, 10*1000);

Like that, only with these changes:

1. The second parameter should be a Date object representing midnight at the end of the current day.

2. The third parameter should be a long value representing the number of milliseconds in 24 hours.
