import java.util.TimerTask;

public class ReminderTimerTask extends TimerTask
{
    public void run()
    {
        System.out.println("Wake up...");
    }
}

TimerDemo.java

import java.util.Timer;
import java.util.TimerTask;

public class TimerDemo
{
    public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException
    {

        /*
         *
         * Creates a new timer whose associated thread has the
         * specified name. The associated thread does not run as a
         * daemon.
         *
         * Parameters:
         *
         * name - the name of the associated thread
         */
        Timer timer = new Timer("Reminder Timer");

        TimerTask reminderTimerTask = new ReminderTimerTask();

        timer.schedule(reminderTimerTask, 5000, 2000);
        System.out.println("Timer has schedule the reminderTimerTask...");
