What is the best way to call repaint() at regular intervals in my Java2D program?

I'm looking to call repaint() in my Java2D simulator at regular intervals.

What would be the best way to do this? Should I start another thread and have a loop that keeps track of currentTimeMillis()? Or is there a better way?

Use a Timer. If its a Swing application use a Swing Timer. If its AWT then use TimerTask.
