Consider the following code:

while(true) { someFunction(); Thread.sleep(1000); }

What I want is that, someFunction() be called once every 10 seconds. But this is not the case. It is being called every second. I tried Thread.wait(1000), but even that doesnt help. I removed of the while part, just kept the body, and at the end wrote :

Thread.start();

But it throwed an exception. Is there any other solution to this?
