public static ScheduledExecutorService newSingleThreadScheduledExecutor (ThreadFactory threadFactory)

Creates a single-threaded executor that can schedule commands to run after a given delay, or to execute periodically. (Note however that if this single thread terminates due to a failure during execution prior to shutdown, a new one will take its place if needed to execute subsequent tasks.) Tasks are guaranteed to execute sequentially, and no more than one task will be active at any given time. Unlike the otherwise equivalent newScheduledThreadPool(1, threadFactory) the returned executor is guaranteed not to be reconfigurable to use additional threads.

Parameters:
threadFactory    the factory to use when creating new threads

Returns:  a newly created scheduled executor

Exceptions:
NullPointerException    if threadFactory is null
