  • Producer / Consumer - I/O Disk

    - by Pedro Magalhaes
    Hi, I have a compressed file in the disk, that a partitioned in blocks. I read a block from disk decompress it to memory and the read the data. It is possible to create a producer/consumer, one thread that recovers compacted blocks from disk and put in a queue and another thread that decompress and read the data? Will the performance be better? Thanks!

  • How to pause a thread in java?

    - by mithun1538
    Consider the following code: while(true) { someFunction(); Thread.sleep(1000); } What I want is that, someFunction() be called once every 10 seconds. But this is not the case. It is being called every second. I tried Thread.wait(1000), but even that doesnt help. I removed of the while part, just kept the body, and at the end wrote : Thread.start(); But it throwed an exception. Is there any other solution to this?

  • My Thread Programs Block

    - by user315378
    I wrote a program that worked as a server. Knowing that "accept" was blocking the program. I wanted to launch a thread with this statement to prevent precisely that the program crashes, but this still happens. Can anybody help? Post code Thanks -(IBAction)Connetti{ if(switchConnessione.on){ int port = [fieldPort.text intValue]; labelStatus.text = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"Il Server è attivo"]; server_len = sizeof(server); server.sin_family = AF_INET; server.sin_port = htons((u_short)port); server.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY; sd = socket (AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); bind(sd, (struct sockaddr*)&server, sizeof(server)); listen(sd, 1); [NSThread detachNewThreadSelector:@selector(startThreadAccept) toTarget:self withObject:nil]; } else { labelStatus.text = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"Server non attivo"]; switchChat.on = FALSE; switchChat.enabled = FALSE; } } -(void)startThreadAccept{ NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc]init]; [self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(acceptConnection) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:NO]; [pool release]; } -(void)acceptConnection{ new_sd = accept(sd, (struct sockaddr*)&server, &server_len); labelStatus.text = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"Ho accettato una connessione:%d", new_sd]; switchChat.enabled = TRUE; }

  • Cache consistency & spawning a thread

    - by Dave Keck
    Background I've been reading through various books and articles to learn about processor caches, cache consistency, and memory barriers in the context of concurrent execution. So far though, I have been unable to determine whether a common coding practice of mine is safe in the strictest sense. Assumptions The following pseudo-code is executed on a two-processor machine: int sharedVar = 0; myThread() { print(sharedVar); } main() { sharedVar = 1; spawnThread(myThread); sleep(-1); } main() executes on processor 1 (P1), while myThread() executes on P2. Initially, sharedVar exists in the caches of both P1 and P2 with the initial value of 0 (due to some "warm-up code" that isn't shown above.) Question Strictly speaking – preferably without assuming any particular CPU – is myThread() guaranteed to print 1? With my newfound knowledge of processor caches, it seems entirely possible that at the time of the print() statement, P2 may not have received the invalidation request for sharedVar caused by P1's assignment in main(). Therefore, it seems possible that myThread() could print 0. References These are the related articles and books I've been reading. (It wouldn't allow me to format these as links because I'm a new user - sorry.)

  • Performance issue on Android's MapView Navigation-App

    - by poeschlorn
    Hey Guys, I've got a question on making an navigation app more faster and more stable. The basic layer of my app is a simple mapview, covered with several overlays (2 markers for start and destination and one for the route). My idea is to implement a thread to display the route, so that the app won't hang up during the calculation of a more complex route (like it does right now). After implementing the thread there are no updates shows any more, maybe you can help me with a short glance at an excerpt of my code below: private class MyLocationListener implements LocationListener { @Override public void onLocationChanged(Location loc) { posUser = new GeoPoint((int) (loc.getLatitude() * 1E6), (int) (loc .getLongitude() * 1E6)); new Thread(){ public void run(){ mapView.invalidate(); // Erase old overlays mapView.getOverlays().clear(); // Draw updated overlay elements and adjust basic map settings updateText(); if(firstRefresh){ adjustMap(); firstRefresh = false; } getAndPaintRoute(); drawMarkers(); } }; } Some features have been summarized to a method like "drawMarkers()" or "updateText()"...(they don't need any more attention ;-))

  • Filling SWT table object using a separated thread class ...

    - by erlord
    Hi all I've got a code snippet by the swt team that does exactly what I need. However, there is a part I want to separate into another class, in particular, the whole inline stuff. In response to my former question, it has been suggested that Callable should be used in order to implement threaded objects. It is suggested to make use of an implementation of runnable or better callable, since I do need some kind of return. However, I don't get it. My problems are: In the original code, within the inline implementation of the method run, some of the parents objects are called. How would I do this when the thread is separated? Pass the object via the C'tor's parameter? In the original code, another runnable object is nested within the runnable implementation. What is it good for? How to implement this when having separated the code? Furthermore, this nested runnable again calls objects created by the main method. Please, have mercy with me, but I am still quite a beginner and my brain is near collapsing :-( All I want is to separate all the threaded stuff into another class and make the program do just the same thing as it already does. Help please! Again thank you very much in advance for any useful suggestions, hints, examples etc... Regs Me

  • Need help with Java Producer Consumer Problem, NullPointerException

    - by absk
    This is my code: package test; import java.util.logging.Level; import java.util.logging.Logger; class Data{ int ar[]=new int[50]; int ptr; Data() { for(int i=0;i<50;i++) ar[i]=0; ptr=0; } public int produce() { if(this.ptr<50) { this.ar[this.ptr]=1; this.ptr++; return this.ptr; } else return -1; } public int consume() { if(this.ptr>0) { this.ar[this.ptr]=0; this.ptr--; return this.ptr; } else return -1; } } class Prod implements Runnable{ private Main m; Prod(Main mm) { m=mm; } public void run() { int r = m.d.produce(); if (r != -1) { System.out.println("Produced, total elements: " + r); } else { try { wait(); } catch (InterruptedException ex) { Logger.getLogger(Prod.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex); } } } } class Cons implements Runnable{ private Main m; Cons(Main mm) { m=mm; } public void run() { int r=m.d.consume(); if(r!=-1) System.out.println("Consumed, total elements: " + r); else { try { wait(); } catch (InterruptedException ex) { Logger.getLogger(Prod.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex); } } notify(); } } public class Main{ Data d; public static void main(String s[]) throws InterruptedException{ Main m = new Main(); Prod p = new Prod(m); Cons c = new Cons(m); new Thread(p).start(); new Thread(c).start(); } } It is giving following errors: Exception in thread "Thread-0" Exception in thread "Thread-1" java.lang.NullPointerException at test.Cons.run(Main.java:84) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) java.lang.NullPointerException at test.Prod.run(Main.java:58) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) I am new to Java.

  • Progress Dialog in Android doesn't Show?

    - by Tyler
    Okay.. I am doing something similar to the below: private void onCreate() { final ProgressDialog dialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, "Please wait..", "Doing stuff..", true); Thread t = new Thread() { public void run() { //do some serious stuff... dialog.dismiss(); } }; t.start(); t.join(); stepTwo(); } However, what I am finding is that my progress dialog never even shows up. My App stalls for a moment so I know it is chugging along inside of thread t, but why doesnt my dialog appear? IF I remove the line: t.join(); Then what I find happens is that the progress dialog does show up, but my app starts stepTwo(); before what happens in the thread is complete.. Any ideas?

  • Is a signal sent with kill to a parent thread guaranteed to be processed before the next statement?

    - by Jonathan M Davis
    Okay, so if I'm running in a child thread on linux (using pthreads if that matters), and I run the following command kill(getpid(), someSignal); it will send the given signal to the parent of the current thread. My question: Is it guaranteed that the parent will then immediately get the CPU and process the signal (killing the app if it's a SIGKILL or doing whatever else if it's some other signal) before the statement following kill() is run? Or is it possible - even probable - that whatever command follows kill() will run before the signal is processed by the parent thread?

  • Total Order between !different! volatile variables?

    - by andreas
    Hi all, Consider the following Java code: volatile boolean v1 = false; volatile boolean v2 = false; //Thread A v1 = true; if (v2) System.out.println("v2 was true"); //Thread B v2 = true; if (v1) System.out.println("v1 was true"); If there was a globally visible total order for volatile accesses then at least one println would always be reached. Is that actually guaranteed by the Java Standard? Or is an execution like this possible: A: v1 = true; B: v2 = true; A: read v2 = false; B: read v1 = false; A: v2 = true becomes visible (after the if) B: v1 = true becomes visible (after the if) I could only find statements about accesses to the same volatile variable in the Standard (but I might be missing something). "A write to a volatile variable (§8.3.1.4) v synchronizes-with all subsequent reads of v by any thread (where subsequent is defined according to the synchronization order)." http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/third_edition/html/memory.html#17.4.4 Thanks!

  • Monitor.Wait, Pulse - When worker thread should conditionally behave as an actual worker thread

    - by Griever
    My particular scenario: - Main thread starts a worker thread. - Main thread needs to block itself until either worker thread is completed (yeah funny) or worker thread itself informs main thread to go on Alright, so what I did in main thread: wokerThread.Start(lockObj); lock(lockObj) Monitor.Wait(lockObj); Somewhere in worker thread: if(mainThreadShouldGoOn) lock(lockObj) Monitor.Pulse(lockObj); Also, at the end of worker thread: lock(lockObj) Monitor.Pulse(lockObj); So far, it's working perfect. But is it a good solution? Is there a better one?

  • How do I update blackberry UI items from a thread?

    - by Andrei T. Ursan
    public class PlayText extends Thread { private int duration; private String text; private PlayerScreen playerscrn; public PlayText(String text, int duration) { this.duration = duration; this.text = text; this.playerscrn = (PlayerScreen)UiApplication.getUiApplication().getActiveScreen(); } public void run() { synchronized(UiApplication.getEventLock()) { try{ RichTextField text1player = new RichTextField(this.text, Field.NON_FOCUSABLE); playerscrn.add(text1player); playerscrn.invalidate(); Thread.sleep(this.duration); RichTextField text2player = new RichTextField("hahhaha", Field.NON_FOCUSABLE); playerscrn.add(text2player); playerscrn.invalidate(); Thread.sleep(1000); RichTextField text3player = new RichTextField("Done", Field.NON_FOCUSABLE); playerscrn.add(text3player); playerscrn.invalidate(); }catch(Exception e){ System.out.println("I HAVE AN ERROR"); } } } } With the above code I'm trying to create a small text player. Instead to get all the text labels one by one, something like display text1player wait this.duration milliseconds display text2player wait 1000 milliseconds display text3player thread done. The screens waits this.duration + 1000 milliseconds and displays all the labels at once. I tried with a runnable and calling .invokeLater or .invokeAndWait but I still get the same behavior, and even if I get dirty like above using synchronized it still doesn't work. Does anyone know how I can display each label at a time? Thank you!

  • Pause and resume thread drawing to SurfaceView

    - by fhucho
    I am developing a chess game for Android (http://androidchess.appspot.com), using SurfaceView for the chessboard. I have a drawing Thread, that draws the chessboard in a loop. The problem is that when there are no active animations (this is more that 90% of time), it makes no sense to waste CPU and battery for drawing. How should I solve this? Maybe somehow pausing and resuming the drawing Thread?

  • Start thread with two parameters

    - by Matt
    I've got a method that gets called on an event, which presents me with two variables varA, varB (both strings). This method gets called with new information quite frequently, thus I have created a separate method that takes in the two parameters. I want to run this method in a thread, however have struck the issue that Thread.Start will not accept parameters. I've tried a few supposed methods, but have so far had no luck.. I think my best bet is to create a separate class, and handle it there.. However I have a List which I am inserting data into, and hit a dead end when the separate class tried to access that list, since it was in a different class. Can someone help me out here please?

  • How the simples GUI countdown is supposed to work?

    - by Roman
    I am trying to write the simples GUI countdown. I found in Internet some code but it is already too fancy for me. I am trying to keep it as simple as possible. So, I just want to have a window saying "You have 10 second left". The number of second should decrease every second from 10 to 0. I wrote a code. And I think I am close to the working solution. But I still missing something. Could you pleas help me to find out what is wrong? Here is my code: import javax.swing.*; public class Countdown { static JLabel label; // Method which defines the appearance of the window. private static void showGUI() { JFrame frame = new JFrame("Simple Countdown"); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); JLabel label = new JLabel("Some Text"); frame.add(label); frame.pack(); frame.setVisible(true); } // Define a new thread in which the countdown is counting down. static Thread counter = new Thread() { public void run() { for (int i=10; i>0; i=i-1) { updateGUI(i,label); try {Thread.sleep(1000);} catch(InterruptedException e) {}; } } }; // A method which updates GUI (sets a new value of JLabel). private static void updateGUI(final int i, final JLabel label) { SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(i,label) { public Runnable(int i, JLabel label) { this.i = i; this.label = label; } public void run() { label.setText("You have " + i + " seconds."); } }); } // The main method (entry point). public static void main(String[] args) { javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() { public void run() { showGUI(); //counter.start(); } }); //counter.start(); } } And I have several concrete question about this code: Where should I place the counter.start();? (In my code I put it on 2 places. Which one is correct?) Why compiler complains about the constructor for Runnable? It says that I have an invalid method declaration and I need to specify the returned type. ADDED: I made the suggested corrections. And then I execute the code and get: Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException at Worker.run(Worker.java:12) In the Worker.java in the line 12 I have: label.setText("You have " + i + " seconds.");.

  • java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor strange logic

    Look ath this method of ThreadPoolExcecutor: public void execute(Runnable command) { ... if (runState == RUNNING && workQueue.offer(command)) { if (runState != RUNNING || poolSize == 0) ensureQueuedTaskHandled(command); } ... } It check that runState is RUNNING and then the oposite. As I'm trying to do some tuning on a SEDA like model I wanted to understand the internals of the thread pool. Do you think this code is correct?

  • Why .NET does not allow cross-thread operations?

I can`t understand why a SerialPort DataReceived event cannot update a simple text box on my form and why using delegates this is possible?

  • Understanding Thread/BeginInvoke? [beginner]

    - by Moberg
    Consider the code: class Work { public void DoStuff(string s) { Console.WriteLine(s); // .. whatever } } class Master { private readonly Work work = new Work(); public void Execute() { string hello = "hello"; // (1) is this an ugly hack ? var thread1 = new Thread(new ParameterizedThreadStart(o => this.work.DoStuff((string)o))); thread1.Start(hello); thread1.Join(); // (2) is this similar to the one above? new Action<string>(s => this.work.DoStuff(s)).BeginInvoke(hello, null, null); } } Is (1) an acceptable way of easy starting some work in a seperate thread? If not a better alternative would be much appreciated. Is (2) doing the same? I guess what I ask is if a new thread is started, or.. Hope you can help a beginner to a better understanding :) /Moberg

  • Can't resolve CalledFromWrongThreadException with Handler

    - by michel
    I will try to keep it simple: In my main activity I make a handler: public class ARViewer extends ARDisplayActivity { public final MHandler mHandler = new MHandler(this); public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { ... The class MHandler: public final class MHandler extends Handler{ //main activity private ARViewer arnv; public MHandler(ARViewer arnv){ this.arnv = arnv; } @Override public void handleMessage(Message msg) { ... case H_RR : arnv.setContentView(R.layout.routeplanner); break; ... super.handleMessage(msg); } } But if I call the handleMessage method from a callback function in a other Class, definitely from a other thread, I still get the exception message: CalledFromWrongThreadException (Only the original thread that created a view hierarchy can touch its views) : public void rFound(Route route) { Message msg = new Message(); msg.what = MHandler.H_RR; ARViewer.arnv.mHandler.handleMessage(msg); }
