使用下面的编码结构来处理异常

try {
  Thread.sleep(1000);
} catch (InterruptedException ie) {
    //Handle exception
}

Thread.sleep()对于初学者来说很简单，可能适用于单元测试和概念证明。

但是请不要在产品代码中使用sleep()。最终sleep()可能会狠狠地咬你一口。

多线程/多核java应用程序使用“线程等待”概念的最佳实践。Wait释放线程持有的所有锁和监控器，这允许其他线程获得这些监控器，并在您的线程平静睡眠时继续执行。

下面的代码演示了该技术:

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
public class DelaySample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
       DelayUtil d = new DelayUtil();
       System.out.println("started:"+ new Date());
       d.delay(500);
       System.out.println("half second after:"+ new Date());
       d.delay(1, TimeUnit.MINUTES); 
       System.out.println("1 minute after:"+ new Date());
    }
}

DelayUtil实现:

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import java.util.concurrent.locks.Condition;
import java.util.concurrent.locks.ReentrantLock;

public class DelayUtil {
    /** 
    *  Delays the current thread execution. 
    *  The thread loses ownership of any monitors. 
    *  Quits immediately if the thread is interrupted
    *  
    * @param durationInMillis the time duration in milliseconds
    */
   public void delay(final long durationInMillis) {
      delay(durationInMillis, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
   }

   /** 
    * @param duration the time duration in the given {@code sourceUnit}
    * @param unit
    */
    public void delay(final long duration, final TimeUnit unit) {
        long currentTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
        long deadline = currentTime+unit.toMillis(duration);
        ReentrantLock lock = new ReentrantLock();
        Condition waitCondition = lock.newCondition();

        while ((deadline-currentTime)>0) {
            try {
                lock.lockInterruptibly();    
                waitCondition.await(deadline-currentTime, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
                return;
            } finally {
                lock.unlock();
            }
            currentTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
        }
    }
}

正如其他用户所说的，你应该用try{…} catch{…}。但是自从Java 1.5发布以来，有了一个TimeUnit类，它的功能与Thread.sleep(millis)相同，但更方便。 您可以选择睡眠操作的时间单位。

try {
    TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.sleep(100);
    TimeUnit.MICROSECONDS.sleep(100);
    TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.sleep(100);
    TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(100);
    TimeUnit.MINUTES.sleep(100);
    TimeUnit.HOURS.sleep(100);
    TimeUnit.DAYS.sleep(100);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
    //Handle exception
}

它还有其他的方法: TimeUnit Oracle文档

当使用Android(我唯一一次使用Java)时，我会建议使用处理程序而不是让线程进入睡眠状态。

final Handler handler = new Handler();
    handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            Log.i(TAG, "I've waited for two hole seconds to show this!");

        }
    }, 2000);

你们有很多书要读。从编译器错误到异常处理，线程和线程中断。但这将达到你想要的效果:

try {
    Thread.sleep(1000);                 //1000 milliseconds is one second.
} catch(InterruptedException ex) {
    Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
}

放置你的线程。睡在一个尝试捕捉块

try {
    //thread to sleep for the specified number of milliseconds
    Thread.sleep(100);
} catch ( java.lang.InterruptedException ie) {
    System.out.println(ie);
}
