Class BARRIER

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.jgroups.stack.Protocol
      extended by org.jgroups.protocols.BARRIER

public class BARRIER
extends Protocol

All messages up the stack have to go through a barrier (read lock, RL). By default, the barrier is open. When a CLOSE_BARRIER event is received, we close the barrier by acquiring a write lock (WL). This succeeds when all previous messages have completed (by releasing their RLs). Thus, when we have acquired the WL, we know that there are no pending messages processed.
When an OPEN_BARRIER event is received, we simply open the barrier again and let all messages pass in the up direction. This is done by releasing the WL.

public BARRIER()
Method Detail

isClosed

public boolean isClosed()

getNumberOfInFlightThreads

public int getNumberOfInFlightThreads()

getInFlightThreadsCount

public int getInFlightThreadsCount()

isOpenerScheduled

public boolean isOpenerScheduled()

init

public void init()
          throws java.lang.Exception
Description copied from class: Protocol
Called after instance has been created (null constructor) and before protocol is started. Properties are already set. Other protocols are not yet connected and events cannot yet be sent.

Overrides:
init in class Protocol
Throws:
java.lang.Exception - Thrown if protocol cannot be initialized successfully. This will cause the ProtocolStack to fail, so the channel constructor will throw an exception

stop

public void stop()
Description copied from class: Protocol
This method is called on a Channel.disconnect(). Stops work (e.g. by closing multicast socket). Will be called from top to bottom. This means that at the time of the method invocation the neighbor protocol below is still working. This method will replace the STOP, STOP_OK, CLEANUP and CLEANUP_OK events. The ProtocolStack guarantees that when this method is called all messages in the down queue will have been flushed

Overrides:
stop in class Protocol

destroy

public void destroy()
Description copied from class: Protocol
This method is called on a Channel.close(). Does some cleanup; after the call the VM will terminate

Overrides:
destroy in class Protocol

down

public java.lang.Object down(Event evt)
Description copied from class: Protocol
An event is to be sent down the stack. The layer may want to examine its type and perform some action on it, depending on the event's type. If the event is a message MSG, then the layer may need to add a header to it (or do nothing at all) before sending it down the stack using down_prot.down(). In case of a GET_ADDRESS event (which tries to retrieve the stack's address from one of the bottom layers), the layer may need to send a new response event back up the stack using up_prot.up().

Overrides:
down in class Protocol

up

public java.lang.Object up(Event evt)
Description copied from class: Protocol
An event was received from the layer below. Usually the current layer will want to examine the event type and - depending on its type - perform some computation (e.g. removing headers from a MSG event type, or updating the internal membership list when receiving a VIEW_CHANGE event). Finally the event is either a) discarded, or b) an event is sent down the stack using down_prot.down() or c) the event (or another event) is sent up the stack using up_prot.up().

Overrides:
up in class Protocol

openBarrier

public void openBarrier()
