time delay

[webster]

I have a whole lot of if statements for checkboxes that play sounds if they
are selected (an example is as follows) but i want a delay between when each
if statement is played. How do i put a time delay between these?

if (checkbox1.isSelected())
Base.play();
if (checkbox2.isSelected())
Base.play();

thanks

You can call Thread.sleep() if the code above isn't in the GUI event
handling thread. One possible solution is to add play commands to a queue
and have a dedicated sound playing thread that dequeues commands, plays
sounds and waits between them.
