I'm real new to Java, but not to programming. By blocking do you mean I'm stopping the main routine from executing? If I use the time difference by currentTimeMillis and give it something to do, is this still blocking?
Yes, blocking as in the Unix sense of the word. The basic issue is that your UI thread is not consuming messages and that the system/vm monitors that thinking -- rightly -- that something's wrong. When you block, you cannot process UI events which is never good.
I'll look at the other things you suggested which also turned up in my investigation. Just not sure how hard it is.
It's trivial. new Handler () in your activity to be able to do postDelayed, and new Runnable () to encapsulate kicking off the next step. Mike
Thanks a million! Mike
