Why is this not working? Its java.

Question

public class Program
{
public static void main(String[] args) {

}
}
public class Clock extends Thread {
java.text.DateFormat f = //How to format time for this local
java.text.DateFormat.getTimeInstance(java.text.DateFormat.MEDIUM);
volatile boolean keepRunning = true;

public Clock() { //The constructor
setDaemon(true); // Daemon thread: interpreter can exit while it runs
start(); // This thread starts itself
}

public void run() { // body of thread
while(keeprunning) { // This thread runs until asked to stop
String time = f.format(new java.util.Date()); // Current time
System.out.println(time); //Print the time
try { Thread.sleep(1000); }
catch (InterupptedException e) {
}
}
// Ask the thread to stop running
public void pleaseStop() { keepRunning = false; }
}

Answer 1

There are a number of issues. for starters, the first 7 lines of code are not for this, start by erasing those.

while(keeprunning) should be while(keepRunning) ... Capitalization counts.

Your final method pleaseStop() is located inside of your run() method.

These are the first problems, I dont have time to go deeper into the code, but start with these and go from there

Answer 2

Answer 3
