Re: Best way to schedule periodic reminder?

I would do this:

    

  Timer saveTimer = new Timer() {

    public void run() {

      // show the popup

    }

  };

    

  public void onWorkSaved() {

    saveTimer.cancel(); 

    saveTimer.schedule(3600 * 1000);

  }

  public void onFinishedEditing() {

    saveTimer.cancel(); 

  }

Hi,

I would like to create a popup every hour that reminds the user to save his work (of course only if the work has not been saved for 1 h).
What is the right way to do this?

timer.scheduleRepeating(TIME);

and on save: timer.cancel()?

Probably it works this way, but would this consume decent resources if there is always a timer running in background? Or doesn't this matter.

Thanks
