public class Timer {
    private float lastFrameChanged;
    private float frameDuration;
    private Runnable r;

    public Timer(float frameDuration, Runnable r) {
        this.frameDuration = frameDuration;
        this.lastFrameChanged = 0;
        this.r = r;
    }

    public void update(float dt) {
        lastFrameChanged += dt;

        if (lastFrameChanged > frameDuration) {
            lastFrameChanged = 0;
            r.run();
        }
    }
}

这里有一个简单可靠的方法…

将以下代码放入Activity中，当Activity处于“恢复”状态时，tick()方法将在UI线程中每秒调用一次。当然，您可以更改tick()方法来做您想做的事情，或者更频繁地调用它。

@Override
public void onPause() {
    _handler = null;
    super.onPause();
}

private Handler _handler;

@Override
public void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
    _handler = new Handler();
    Runnable r = new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            if (_handler == _h0) {
                tick();
                _handler.postDelayed(this, 1000);
            }
        }

        private final Handler _h0 = _handler;
    };
    r.run();
}

private void tick() {
    System.out.println("Tick " + System.currentTimeMillis());
}

对于那些感兴趣的人来说，“_h0=_handler”代码是必要的，以避免在tick周期内暂停和恢复活动时同时运行两个计时器。

import kotlin.concurrent.fixedRateTimer

val timer = fixedRateTimer("Tag", false, 1000, 2500) { /* Your code here */ }

Kotlin非常简单

您需要创建一个线程来处理更新循环，并使用它来更新文本区域。棘手的部分是只有主线程可以修改ui，所以更新循环线程需要通知主线程进行更新。这是使用处理程序完成的。

查看这个链接:http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/dialogs.html# 点击标题为“Example ProgressDialog with a second thread”的部分。这是一个你需要做什么的例子，除了一个进度对话框而不是一个文本框。

他是更简单的解决方案，工作在我的应用程序。

  public class MyActivity extends Acitivity {

    TextView myTextView;
    boolean someCondition=true;

     @Override
        protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.my_activity);

            myTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.refreshing_field);

            //starting our task which update textview every 1000 ms
            new RefreshTask().execute();



        }

    //class which updates our textview every second

    class RefreshTask extends AsyncTask {

            @Override
            protected void onProgressUpdate(Object... values) {
                super.onProgressUpdate(values);
                String text = String.valueOf(System.currentTimeMillis());
                myTextView.setText(text);

            }

            @Override
            protected Object doInBackground(Object... params) {
                while(someCondition) {
                    try {
                        //sleep for 1s in background...
                        Thread.sleep(1000);
                        //and update textview in ui thread
                        publishProgress();
                    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                        e.printStackTrace(); 

                };
                return null;
            }
        }
    }
