GetTickCount() Equivalent

[plenderj]

Howdy.

I use the GetTickCount() API call in VB games programming a lot, but now I'm developing a Java game, and I'm wondering what might be the best way of going about it ?

Ive been looking with java.util.*, and am wondering if this is what I should be messing around with.

Any code samples gratefully accepted.

Thanks,
Jamie.

"GetTickCount This function returns the number of milliseconds since boot time."

I suppose you could always go to a native method call.
