SemaphoreControlledChannel

public SemaphoreControlledChannel(int capacity)
                           throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
Create a channel with the given capacity and default semaphore implementation

Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if capacity less or equal to zero

SemaphoreControlledChannel

public SemaphoreControlledChannel(int capacity,
                                  java.lang.Class semaphoreClass)
                           throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException,

                                  java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
Create a channel with the given capacity and semaphore implementations instantiated from the supplied class

Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if capacity less or equal to zero.
java.lang.NoSuchMethodException - If class does not have constructor that intializes permits
java.lang.SecurityException - if constructor information not accessible
java.lang.InstantiationException - if semaphore class is abstract
java.lang.IllegalAccessException - if constructor cannot be called
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException - if semaphore constructor throws an exception
Method Detail

capacity

public int capacity()
Description copied from interface: BoundedChannel
Return the maximum number of elements that can be held.

Specified by:
capacity in interface BoundedChannel
Returns:
the capacity of this channel.

size

public int size()
Return the number of elements in the buffer. This is only a snapshot value, that may change immediately after returning.


insert

protected abstract void insert(java.lang.Object x)
Internal mechanics of put.


extract

protected abstract java.lang.Object extract()
Internal mechanics of take.


put

public void put(java.lang.Object x)
         throws java.lang.InterruptedException
Description copied from interface: Channel
Place item in the channel, possibly waiting indefinitely until it can be accepted. Channels implementing the BoundedChannel subinterface are generally guaranteed to block on puts upon reaching capacity, but other implementations may or may not block.

Specified by:
put in interface Channel
Specified by:
put in interface Puttable
Parameters:
x - the element to be inserted. Should be non-null.
Throws:
java.lang.InterruptedException - if the current thread has been interrupted at a point at which interruption is detected, in which case the element is guaranteed not to be inserted. Otherwise, on normal return, the element is guaranteed to have been inserted.

offer

public boolean offer(java.lang.Object x,
                     long msecs)
              throws java.lang.InterruptedException
Description copied from interface: Channel
Place item in channel only if it can be accepted within msecs milliseconds. The time bound is interpreted in a coarse-grained, best-effort fashion.

Specified by:
offer in interface Channel
Specified by:
offer in interface Puttable
Parameters:
x - the element to be inserted. Should be non-null.
msecs - the number of milliseconds to wait. If less than or equal to zero, the method does not perform any timed waits, but might still require access to a synchronization lock, which can impose unbounded delay if there is a lot of contention for the channel.
Returns:
true if accepted, else false
Throws:
java.lang.InterruptedException - if the current thread has been interrupted at a point at which interruption is detected, in which case the element is guaranteed not to be inserted (i.e., is equivalent to a false return).

take

public java.lang.Object take()
                      throws java.lang.InterruptedException
Description copied from interface: Channel
Return and remove an item from channel, possibly waiting indefinitely until such an item exists.

Specified by:
take in interface Channel
Specified by:
take in interface Takable
Returns:
some item from the channel. Different implementations may guarantee various properties (such as FIFO) about that item
Throws:
java.lang.InterruptedException - if the current thread has been interrupted at a point at which interruption is detected, in which case state of the channel is unchanged.

poll

public java.lang.Object poll(long msecs)
                      throws java.lang.InterruptedException
Description copied from interface: Channel
Return and remove an item from channel only if one is available within msecs milliseconds. The time bound is interpreted in a coarse grained, best-effort fashion.

Specified by:
poll in interface Channel
Specified by:
poll in interface Takable
Parameters:
msecs - the number of milliseconds to wait. If less than or equal to zero, the operation does not perform any timed waits, but might still require access to a synchronization lock, which can impose unbounded delay if there is a lot of contention for the channel.
Returns:
some item, or null if the channel is empty.
Throws:
java.lang.InterruptedException - if the current thread has been interrupted at a point at which interruption is detected, in which case state of the channel is unchanged (i.e., equivalent to a null return).
