[FIXED] How to terminate a JFrame after a specific amount of time?

Issue

I want a JFrame to display a gif, which is my loading screen and then automatically terminate. I am OK with either terminating it after a particular time period or after it completes displaying the gif. Is there any way to do this?

Solution

to display a gif, which is my loading screen and then automatically terminate.

Sounds like you might want a splash screen.

See the section in the Swing tutorial on How to Create a Splash Screen for more information and a working example.
