Hi there :) I'm making a thread for my application that's going to do an exit operation at a given time (only hours and minutes, day/month doesn't matter). Is this the right way to do it, and also the right way to test for time? I'm testing for a 24 hour clock by the way, not AM / PM.

I'm then in another class going to call this something like new Thread(new ExitThread()).start();

public class ExitThread implements Runnable {

@Override
public void run() {
    Date date = new Date(System.currentTimeMillis());
    String time = new SimpleDateFormat("HHmmss").format(date);
    int currentTime = Integer.parseInt(time);
    int exitTime = 233000;
    while(true) {
    try {
        Thread.sleep(10000);
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    if(currentTime >= exitTime ) {
        // do exit operation here
    }
}

}

Thanks.
