com.sun.squawk
Class Isolate

java.lang.Object
  com.sun.squawk.Isolate

All Implemented Interfaces:

Runnable

public final class Isolate
extends Object
implements Runnable

The Isolate class represents a "process-like" unit of computation that is isolated from other instances of Isolate. The mutable objects of one isolate are logically separate from the mutable objects of another isolate. Similarly, the static variables of one isolate are seperate from the static variables of another isolate.

A Simple Example

The following code example shows the creation of a simple isolate with a single main method argument of "test" and a default context. The created isolate simply prints its arguments array.

  // The creating isolate
  String[] args = {"test"};
  Isolate i = new Isolate("org.example.App", args, null, Isolate.currentIsolate().getParentSuiteSourceURI());
  i.start();
  i.join(); // wait for child isolate to finish
  System.out.println("Child isolate returned with exit code: " + i.getExitCode());

  // The newly created isolate
  package org.example;

  public class App {
      public static void main(String[] args) {
          for(int i = 0; i < args.length; i++ )
              System.out.println(args[i]);
      }
  }

Note that the last two arguments to the constructor are a classpath, and a URI, which specify where the isolate's main class can be found. The classpath is used when Squawk is configured to translate classes to the Squawk suite format dynamically, while the URI specifies the suite which contains the translated class file org.example.App. In this example code we specified that the child isolate will use the same suite as the parent Isolate.

Hibernation

An isolate may be suspended in hibernation. Hibernation removes the isolate and all of the isolate's threads from further execution. Once an isolate is hibernated, it can be serialized using the save(DataOutputStream, String) method. The saved form of the isolate includes all reachable objects, the state of all static variables, and the current execution context of all of the isolate's threads (the thread stacks, etc). The saved form can be stored in a file, sent over a network, etc. load(DataInputStream, String) can be used reconstruct the saved isolate.

Isolate Lifecycle

An Isolate may be in one of several states: NEW, ALIVE, HIBERNATED, and EXITED. The methods isNew(), isAlive(), isHibernated(), isExited() can be used to determine an isolate's current state. An Isolate starts out in the NEW state. When the start() method is called the isolate becomes ALIVE. hibernate() causes an isolate to become HIBERNATED, while unhibernate() brings a HIBERNATED back to ALIVE. An ALIVE isolate may become EXITED by calling exit(int).

Isolate LifecycleNotification

An isolate can register listeners to be notified of changes in an isolate's lifecycle, such as hibernating, unhibernating, or exiting. An isolate can listen for it's own events, or for events on another isolate. To receive notifications of lifecycle events, create a class that implements Isolate.LifecycleListener, and register the listener using addLifecycleListener(com.sun.squawk.Isolate.LifecycleListener, int) and one or more of the lifecycle event masks (such as SHUTDOWN_EVENT_MASK). When the isolate state changes to the specified event, the system will call the listener's Isolate.LifecycleListener.handleLifecycleListenerEvent(com.sun.squawk.Isolate, int) method, passing in the appropriate isolate and event kind.

Inter-Isolate Communication

Isolates may communicate between each other using Channel and ServerChannel instances, or a parent isolate may pass arguments to the main method of the child isolate, or add properties to a child isolate be calling setProperty(String, String).

The properties parameter to the Isolate constructor provides another way to set the system properties of the new isolate. If this parameter is not specified, the child isolate starts with the same set of system properties that it would have if initiated as a standalone application. If this parameter is specified, this default set of properties is augmented with those specified in the parameter, in the same way as if they had been specified with -D on a command line invocation. In addition, all isolate's inherit the properties defined on the Squawk command line using the -D option.

OtherDetails

Each Isolate has independent output streams for System.out and System.err. These output streams can be attached to instances of Connection by passing Generic Connection Framework URIs to addOut(String) or addErr(String).

Squawk Isolates are loosely based on the Isolates of JSR 121 - Application Isolation API, but are not compliant with that specification. In particular, Squawk Isolates support hibernation, and use a different inter-isolate communication mechanism than JSR 121.

addLifecycleListener

public void addLifecycleListener(Isolate.LifecycleListener listener,
                                 int eventSet)

Add a listener to be run when this isolate terminates, hibernates, or unhibernates, depending on evenSet.

The listener may listen to multiple events by using bitwise OR to construct a set of events from the various event masks.

This isolate may be the current isolate (the local case) or another isolate (the remote case). If this isolate is remote, then this method will also add a listener to the local isolate that will remove this listener on the remote isolate. This cleans up the listeners if the local isolate exits before the remote isolate does.

Execution:

The listener will run in the current Isolate's context. All listener from the same Isolate may run in the same thread. Any RuntimeExceptions thrown by the listener will be printed to System.err, but are otherwise ignored.

Parameters:

listener - a LifecycleListener that will be called when event occurs.

eventSet - a set of lifecycle events to be monitored. One or more of SHUTDOWN_EVENT_MASK, HIBERNATE_EVENT_MASK, or UNHIBERNATE_EVENT_MASK.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - when eventSet does not contain SHUTDOWN_EVENT_MASK, HIBERNATE_EVENT_MASK, or UNHIBERNATE_EVENT_MASK

See Also:

removeLifecycleListener(com.sun.squawk.Isolate.LifecycleListener, int), exit(int), hibernate(), unhibernate()

removeLifecycleListener

public boolean removeLifecycleListener(Isolate.LifecycleListener listener,
                                       int eventSet)

Remove an Isolate.LifecycleListener from this isolate. Must be called from the same isolate that added the listener.

Parameters:

listener - a Isolate.LifecycleListener to be removed.

eventSet - a set of lifecycle events that the listener should stop listening to. One or more of SHUTDOWN_EVENT_MASK, HIBERNATE_EVENT_MASK, or UNHIBERNATE_EVENT_MASK.

Returns:

true if the listener was registered with the all of the events in the eventSet on this isolate; false otherwise.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - when eventSet does not contain SHUTDOWN_EVENT_MASK, HIBERNATE_EVENT_MASK, or UNHIBERNATE_EVENT_MASK

See Also:

addLifecycleListener(com.sun.squawk.Isolate.LifecycleListener, int)

intern

public static String intern(String value)

Returns a canonical representation for the string object from the current isolate.

A pool of strings, initially empty, is maintained privately by the class Isolate.

When the intern method is invoked, if the pool already contains a string equal to this String object as determined by the Object.equals(Object) method, then the string from the pool is returned. Otherwise, this String object is added to the pool and a reference to this String object is returned.

It follows that for any two strings s and t, s.intern() == t.intern() is true if and only if s.equals(t) is true.

All literal strings and string-valued constant expressions are interned. String literals are defined in §3.10.5 of the Java Language Specification

Parameters:

value -

Returns:

a string that has the same contents as this string, but is guaranteed to be from a pool of unique strings.
