You'll want a ScheduledExecutorService, which can be obtained from one of the static factory methods on Executors.

hi i want to call a one function, the name of function is addition(), this function take some time for execute. some time this is take over time for execute, so i would like to avoid the function execute more time, in that time i would like to end the function execution, the addition function executes in while loop, so i would like to set 10 seconds for each time calling the function. can u understand what is my problem?

Do you want to call addition repeatedly or just once? Also, can't you just test the current time in addition's loop? while (System.currentTimeMillis() < startTime + (1000 * 10)) { ... }

i called repeatedly,but the input of the addition function is different,so what will i do?

Could you provide a bit more context of what you're trying to achieve? Also, are you able to modify the addition method? I.e. could you put in the check I mentioned above?
