java.lang.Object
- org.netbeans.jemmy.Waiter

All Implemented Interfaces:

Outputable, Timeoutable, Waitable

Direct Known Subclasses:

WindowWaiter
```
public class Waiter
extends Object
implements Waitable, Timeoutable, Outputable
```
Waits for something defined by Waitable interface to be happened.

Timeouts used:
Waiter.TimeDelta - time delta to check actionProduced result.
Waiter.WaitingTime - maximal waiting time
Waiter.AfterWaitingTime - time to sleep after waiting has been finished.

```
public Waiter(Waitable w)
```
    Constructor.
    
    Parameters:
    
    w - Waitable object defining waiting criteria.
  - Waiter
```
protected Waiter()
```
    Can be used from subclass.

  - setTimeouts
```
public void setTimeouts(Timeouts timeouts)
```
    Defines current timeouts.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setTimeouts in interface Timeoutable
    
    Parameters:

```
    Like setTimeouts(Timeouts), but clones the timeouts first, then sets "Waiter.WaitingTime" to the timeout whose name is passed in. This name is remembered for display in timeout error messages so people know what to adjust.
    
    Parameters:
    
    timeouts - to be cloned and in which to look up "useAsWaitingTime".
    
    useAsWaitingTime - the name of the timeout to apply to "Waiter.WaitingTime".
    
    Returns:
    
    the cloned timeouts.
  - setWaitingTimeOrigin
```
public void setWaitingTimeOrigin(String origin)
```
    Sets the origin of the current "Waiter.WaitingTime" to be shown in timeout error messages
    
    Parameters:
    
    origin - is the name of the origin.
  - getTimeouts
```
public Timeouts getTimeouts()
```
    Return current timeouts.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getTimeouts in interface Timeoutable
    
    Returns:
    
    the collection of current timeout assignments.
    
    See Also:
    
    Timeoutable, Timeouts, setTimeouts(org.netbeans.jemmy.Timeouts)
  - setOutput
```
public void setOutput(TestOut out)
```
    Defines print output streams or writers.
    
    Specified by:
    
    setOutput in interface Outputable
    
    Parameters:
    
    out - Identify the streams or writers used for print output.
