How to kill all swing.Timer(s) at end of App

843805Feb 21 2006 — edited Feb 23 2006

I am using a javax.swing.Timer to cause text to flash in the text field. However, I noticed that if this timer is running when I stop my app, the timer's thread is still running. It appears that the class that has the timer is not being garbage collected immediately upon application exit. Is there a way to kill all swing timers?

Thanks,
John
