java - Measure the timing of user screen touches -

i developing app android in taking vibration pattern user using screen touches , saving in array. e.g

long[] pattern = {100, 200,150};  

first 100ms vibrate next 200ms not vibrate vibrate next 150ms. want create values depending on user input.

i using timer class, , save time spent between 2 touches user. being novice in java not able figure out how implement above logic, convert user touch pattern in above array.

any other more efficient logic welcome.

i start subclassing view , overriding touch event methods allow great deal of control:

@override     public boolean dispatchtouchevent(motionevent ev)      {         return super.dispatchtouchevent(ev);     };      @override     public boolean ontouchevent(motionevent ev)      {         return super.ontouchevent(ev);     }     @override     public boolean onintercepttouchevent(motionevent ev)      {         return false;     } 

after have have local variable records time of each touch event, calculate delta time. post may of use. attach ontouchlistener view.
