public class DelayedEvent

Executes its sub-flow after a predefined number of milli-seconds.

-logging-level <OFF|SEVERE|WARNING|INFO|CONFIG|FINE|FINER|FINEST> (property: loggingLevel)
    The logging level for outputting errors and debugging output.
    default: WARNING
 

-name <java.lang.String> (property: name)
    The name of the actor.
    default: DelayedEvent
 

-annotation <adams.core.base.BaseText> (property: annotations)
    The annotations to attach to this actor.
    default: 
 

-skip <boolean> (property: skip)
    If set to true, transformation is skipped and the input token is just forwarded 
    as it is.
    default: false
 

-stop-flow-on-error <boolean> (property: stopFlowOnError)
    If set to true, the flow gets stopped in case this actor encounters an error;
     useful for critical actors.
    default: false
 

-actor <adams.flow.core.Actor> [-actor ...] (property: actors)
    The actors to execute after the delay.
    default: 
 

-delay <int> (property: delay)
