In order to cancel the Timer Task in Java, we use the java. util. TimerTask. cancel() method.
Timer provides method to schedule Task where the task is an instance of TimerTask class, which implements the Runnable interface and overrides run() method to define task which is called on scheduled time.
Calendar today = Calendar.getInstance(); today.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 2); today.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0); today.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0); // every night at 2am you run your task Timer timer = new Timer(); timer.schedule(new YourTask(), today.getTime(), TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.convert(1, TimeUnit.DAYS)); // period: 1 day You could use Timer.schedule(TimerTask task, Date firstTime, long period) method, setting firstTime to 2PM today and the setting the period to 24-hours:
Schedules the specified task for repeated fixed-delay execution, beginning at the specified time. Subsequent executions take place at approximately regular intervals, separated by the specified period.
