Class Threads

java.lang.Object

com.prineside.tdi2.Threads

public final class Threads
extends Object

Manages all of the (multi)threading stuff Also triggers the EngineCrash event if it catches an unhandled exception in any of the configured threads Stores crash report in a file and provides methods to get the previous crash report on the next game start. Crash-handling behavior may not look like fitting this class but it has a small footprint and is still related to threads. Not moved into a separate Manager to make it possible to read crash reports early, before Engine starts.

Method Details

i

public static Threads i()

runOnMainThreadBlocking

public void runOnMainThreadBlocking(Runnable runnable,
 float timeoutSeconds)

Run some task on the main (rendering) thread and block current thread till the task is done. Will run on the same thread immediately if called from the main thread. Similar to Gdx.app.postRunnable() but won't delay the execution if called from the main thread and will pause current thread till done.

Parameters:

runnable - task to run on the main (rendering) thread

timeoutSeconds - max time (in seconds) the task may take. In case of timeout, the task will continue to run on the main thread

runOnMainThread

public void runOnMainThread(Runnable runnable)

Runs the runnable immediately if called from the main thread. Posts a runnable to GDX if not in a main thread. Similar to Gdx.app.postRunnable() but won't delay the execution if called from the main thread. If you need to run something at the exactly next frame, use postRunnable()

runAsync

public void runAsync(Runnable runnable)

Run a job on another thread. Uses a thread pool.

runAsync

public void runAsync(Runnable runnable,
 ObjectConsumer<Exception> onError)

sort

public static <T> void sort(Array<T> array,
 Comparator<? super T> comparator)

sort

public static <T> void sort(T[] array,
 Comparator<? super T> comparator)

sort

public static <T> void sort(T[] array,
 int start,
 int size,
 Comparator<? super T> comparator)

postRunnable

public void postRunnable(Runnable runnable)

Executes the runnable with Gdx.app.postRunnable() and stores the stacktrace to print a detailed info if runnable throws an exception. Writes to log if runnable takes more than 80ms to execute

postRunnableOnce

public void postRunnableOnce(Runnable runnable)

Note: for ui-specific tasks (like updating some menu in response to in-game event) use UiManager

createThread

public Thread createThread(String name,
 Runnable job,
 boolean shouldCrashTheGame)

Create new daemon thread and handle its uncaught exceptions. Thread must be started with start()

Parameters:

name - name of the thread

job - job to be done by the thread

shouldCrashTheGame - if true, uncaught exceptions in this thread will stop the game

Returns:

new thread awaiting to be started

synchronize

public void synchronize(Object lock,
 Runnable runnable)

tryFinally

public void tryFinally(Runnable runnable,
 Runnable onFinally)

tryCatch

public void tryCatch(Runnable runnableToTry,
 ObjectConsumer<Throwable> onError)

concurrentLoop

public <T> void concurrentLoop(Array<T> elements,
 IntObjectConsumer<T> handler)

Run the loop on multiple threads. Blocks the thread it is being called from. If any exception happens during the loop, the game will stop.

concurrentLoop

public <T> void concurrentLoop(T[] elements,
 int start,
 int count,
 IntObjectConsumer<T> handler)

asyncConcurrentLoop

public <T> void asyncConcurrentLoop(T[] elements,
 int start,
 int count,
 IntObjectConsumer<T> handler,
 Runnable onFinish,
 ObjectConsumer<Exception> onError)

main

public static void main(String[] args)
