Thread: Detecting whether the piece of code is executing?

I think you can use threads to perform that. And that thread can update a database or do anything to help you detecting its execution.

You have to write two threads like those:

public class SchedulerThread extends Thread {
 
	private Long intervalTime = new Long("6000");
 
	public SchedulerThread (Long intervalTime) {
		super();
		this.intervalTime = intervalTime;
	}
 
	public void run() {
		while (true) {
			PerformActionThread t = new PerformActionThread ();
			t.start();
			try {
				Thread.sleep(intervalTime);
			} catch (InterruptedException e) {
			}
		}
 
	}
 
}

public class Temp extends Thread{
 
	public void run() {
		System.out.println(new Date());
               // Here you will perform your action and update the database or something to check later  
	}
}

The thread above will print the date every 6 seconds.

And finally in one servlet that you will init with your web application you will start an SchedulerThread instance:

SchedulerThread t = new SchedulerThread (new Long("5000"));
t.start();

Please tell me if you need more help with this.
