TimeUnit

java.util.concurrent

---

Java 5.0

serializable comparable enum

The constants defined by this enumerated type represent granularities of time. Timeout and delay specifications throughout the java.util.concurrent package are specified by a long value and TimeUnit constant that specifies the interpretation of that value.

TimeUnit defines conversion methods that convert values expressed in one unit to values in another unit. More interestingly, it defines convenient alternatives to THRead.sleep( ) , Thread.join( ) , and Object.wait( ) .
