Re: TimerTask not work as expected

Thanks for your help, I think I have solved the synchronous problem. I
have added an Object lock to do the syn.

    public void btnRoll(){
        final Timer timer = new Timer();
        final int index = turn - 1;
        boolean snakeEyes = false;
        dice1 = (int)(Math.random() * 6 + 1);
        dice2 = (int)(Math.random() * 6 + 1);

        if(dice1 == dice2) {
            snakeEyes = true;
            rolled = false;
        }

        if(snakeEyes == true){
            tempFlagPlayer = true;
        }else{
            tempFlagPlayer = false;
        }

        timer.schedule(new TimerTask(){
            private int diceSum = dice1 + dice2;

            public void run(){
                synchronized(lock) {
                    if (diceSum> 0){
                        movePlayer(players.get(index), tempFlagPlayer); // move player
one space each time
                        diceSum --;
                        repaint();
                    }else{
                        checkPlayerMovedStatus(players,tempFlagPlayer);
                        propertymanager.CheckProperty(turn,
players.get(index).getPosition());
                        lock.notify();
                        rolled = true;
                        timer.cancel();
                    }
                    repaint();
                }
            }
        }, 100L,100L);
        repaint();
    }

and in AIturn(int tempNumOfPlayers){

public void AIturn(int tempNumOfPlayers){
      btnRoll();
      synchronized(lock) {
      if(!rolled){
      try{
      lock.wait();
      }
      catch(InterruptedException e){}
      }
         if(propertymanager.Properties[players.get(turn-1).getPosition()]
[0] == 0){
         SystemLogHelper.info("enter btnBuy()");
         btnBuy();
         }
         if(rolled) {
         btnDone(tempNumOfPlayers);
         }
      }
     }

but I found there is another problem for AIturn(int tempNumOfPlayers),
in the btnRoll() in AIturn(),

if (diceSum> 0){
        movePlayer(players.get(index), tempFlagPlayer); // move player one
space each time
        diceSum --;
        repaint();
    }

I found the repaint() doesn't work when it comes to AIturn() call, is
it repaint must be triggered by ActionListener component? If there any
way to force repaint()? Thanks.
