yield processing power on a Applet.

[Roberto Gallo]

Hello;

I have an Applet that needs to check if a lock file is present before it
goes on.
How can I keep checking if this file exists without using the entire
CPU? My Thread.sleep(TIME_AMOUNT) call appears not to work on my single
thread jApplet....

Thank you.

Well, first off, there's no such thing as a single thread Applet. I'd say
you'll need to post some code to get any answers. See the following document

You are right.
