public void timedWait (Object obj, long timeout) throws InterruptedException

Performs a timed Object.wait using this time unit. This is a convenience method that converts timeout arguments into the form required by the Object.wait method.

For example, you could implement a blocking poll method (see BlockingQueue.poll) using:

 
 public E poll(long timeout, TimeUnit unit)
     throws InterruptedException {
   synchronized (lock) {
     while (isEmpty()) {
       unit.timedWait(lock, timeout);
       ...
     
   }
 }}

Parameters:

obj		the object to wait on
timeout		the maximum time to wait. If less than or equal to zero, do not wait at all.

Exceptions:

InterruptedException

if interrupted while waiting
