public interface Delayed
extends Comparable
A mix-in style interface for marking objects that should be
acted upon after a given delay.
An implementation of this interface must define a
compareTo method that provides an ordering consistent with
its
getDelay method.
long | getDelay(TimeUnit unit) - Returns the remaining delay associated with this object, in the
given time unit.

public long getDelay(TimeUnit unit)
