Method Detail

invokeSynchronized

void invokeSynchronized(java.lang.Runnable code)

Invoke some code synchronized with other behavior.

Parameters:

Add an action from external thread. The contract of this method is as follows: The synchronizator ensures the execution of the external action, otherwise the method will throw a terminated exception.

Parameters:

action - The action.

isExternalThread

boolean isExternalThread()

Check if the external thread is accessing.

Returns:

True, if called from an external (i.e. non-synchronized) thread.
