public class Hello1 {

    RealtimeThread rt= new RealtimeThread(){

        System.out.println("Hello RT world");
      }
    };
    rt.start();
  }
}

This example creates and starts a default RealtimeThread object that should be sufficient for most purposes unless a nonpriority scheduler is active.
