Action if window is inactive.

Hi,
How would i make an if function that says if a jframe is inactive for X seconds do this. So for example, if jframe is inactive for 10 seconds System.out.print ("Pay attention to me");

Thanks
Joel

No offense, but it sounds like an annoying application. You will most likely need to log each 'action' that occurs, and have a parallel thread/Timer that fires periodically and checks the last 'action'. It is up to you to define what you mean by action - for example this could be just registered listeners, or registered WindowListeners/ComponentListeners/etc...

That was just an example, the use of it in my application will be to change a picture from a happy face to a bored face. Im not making an application that will constantly irritate you :P Ok, i will let you know how it goes. Thankyou :)
