Thanks very much for the feedback. When I mentioned that I used a thread, I meant that I extended the Thread class with the run() method being overriden. I'm at home at the moment so can't show some code. Basically I would start/stop the thread from a button 'click' handlers. Inside the Run() method was simply a loop to perform the range measurements and sleep for the remainder of the 25ms. This solution didn't work because I couldn't update the UI entities from this thread. Runnable seems to be the better option for accessing views.
I appreciate that android is not a realtime system but thought that 40Hz wouldn't be too difficult to achieve, with the occasional overrun, which wouldn't impair my app. I am getting nowhere near this - even when I remove the range measurement functionality from the run method. I'll investigate both the timer and scheduledThreadPoolExecutor. Thanks again. Marc -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
