How to enable views to handle timer events [message #463054]

I know SWT buttons have selection events whereby when a button of a view
is clicked, an event handler of the button will be executed.

What about timer event handling by view. For example, having a global
timer that starts at the beginning of program execution, and having any
active view of the application pop up a message box when the global timer
triggers. Is it possible for Eclipse Views to handle timer events?

Please advice guys....
