If you have a main method then you are using at least one thread.

If you have a main method then you are using at least one thread.

"not using thread" means i'm not extending thread class in my application..
now please describe how can we run our process repeatedly say after 5 sec.

Timer/TimerTask is the normal way of doing it. Not sure if you'll like it since the timer is a thread facility.

Or you might have a look at Thread.sleep() (it doesn't start another thread).
