D

debug - Static variable in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadReturn

Set this flag to true to output debugging messages to System.out

E

ERROR - Static variable in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadEvent

This type indicates there was some error in the thread execution or monitoring.

G

getCheckDelay() - Static method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadReturn

Gets the loop delay for the check thread that checks on threads waiting to be started.

getObject() - Method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadEvent

Gets the Object saved by the thread.

getThread() - Method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadEvent

Gets the source Thread of this event.

getThrowable() - Method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadEvent

Gets the Throwable object saved by the thread.

getType() - Method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadEvent

Gets the type of this ThreadEvent

H

hasDied(Thread) - Static method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadReturn

Checks if this thread has died

I

ifInterruptedStop() - Static method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadReturn

Calls yield() on the current thread and then throws an InterruptedException if the thread's interrupted state is set.

INTERRUPTED - Static variable in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadEvent

This type indicates the thread saved either an InterruptedException or a ClosedByInterruptException.

J

join(Thread) - Static method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadReturn

Waits for a thread to die and returns the Object it saved.

join(Thread, long) - Static method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadReturn

Waits at most milliSecs for a thread to die and returns the Object it saved.

join(Thread, long, int) - Static method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadReturn

Waits at most milliSecs+nanoSecs for a thread to die and returns the Object it saved.

R

removeListener(Thread, ThreadListener) - Static method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadReturn

Removes a listener from a thread, if the listener has not already been removed.

RETURN - Static variable in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadEvent

This type indicates the thread died normally.

S

save(Object) - Static method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadReturn

Saves this Object against the current thread.

saveImmedeately - Static variable in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadReturn

Set this flag to true to force listeners to be called as soon as Thread.save() is called for the first time without waiting for the thread to die and the check thread to notice it.

setCheckDelay(long) - Static method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadReturn

Sets the loop delay for the check thread that checks on threads waiting to be started.

StackTrace - Class in au.com.forward.threads

The static toString(Throwable t) method of this class is used to retrieve the contents of an exception's stack trace as a String.

stop(Thread) - Static method in class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadReturn

Sets the stop flag for this thread in the threadStopMap and calls the thread's interrupt() method.

T

threadError(ThreadEvent) - Method in interface au.com.forward.threads.ThreadListener

Called when an error occured on the thread or an error occurred in the observer thread.

ThreadEvent - Class in au.com.forward.threads

This class encapsulates a Thread termination event.

ThreadEvent(Thread, Object) - Constructor for class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadEvent

The thread died normally and saved this object for return.

ThreadEvent(Thread, Throwable) - Constructor for class au.com.forward.threads.ThreadEvent

The thread saved some Throwable or some error occurred during the monitoring.

ThreadException - Exception in au.com.forward.threads

An exception of this class, or its sub-class ThreadInterruptedException, is thrown by the ThreadReturn.join() methods when the thread being joined saves a Throwable.

threadInterrupted(ThreadEvent) - Method in interface au.com.forward.threads.ThreadListener

Called when the thread was stopped by being interrupted.

ThreadInterruptedException - Exception in au.com.forward.threads

An exception of this class is thrown by the ThreadReturn.join() methods when the thread being joined throws an InterruptedException or a ClosedByInterruptException.

ThreadListener - Interface in au.com.forward.threads

A listener for thread termination events.

threadResult(ThreadEvent) - Method in interface au.com.forward.threads.ThreadListener

Called when the thread died normally.

ThreadReturn - Class in au.com.forward.threads

This is the main class of this package and contains the static methods for handling threads.

TimedOutException - Exception in au.com.forward.threads

An exception of this class is thrown by the ThreadReturn.join() methods when the join() times out before the thread being joined dies.

TimeOut - Class in au.com.forward.threads

This class sets a timeout time which can by used by mulitple join() statements to specify the total time required for a number of threads to complete.

TimeOut(long) - Constructor for class au.com.forward.threads.TimeOut

Creates a new timeout with an absolute time of now + milliseconds

timeRemaining() - Method in class au.com.forward.threads.TimeOut

Returns the number of milliseconds remaining from now.
