Class YieldingWaitStrategy

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    WaitStrategy

    public final class YieldingWaitStrategy
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements WaitStrategy
    Yielding strategy that uses a Thread.yield() for EventProcessors waiting on a barrier after an initially spinning.

    This strategy will use 100% CPU, but will more readily give up the CPU than a busy spin strategy if other threads require CPU resource.

        Description copied from interface: WaitStrategy
        Wait for the given sequence to be available. It is possible for this method to return a value less than the sequence number supplied depending on the implementation of the WaitStrategy. A common use for this is to signal a timeout. Any EventProcessor that is using a WaitStrategy to get notifications about message becoming available should remember to handle this case. The BatchEventProcessor explicitly handles this case and will signal a timeout if required.
        Specified by:
        waitFor in interface WaitStrategy
        Parameters:
        sequence - to be waited on.
        cursor - the main sequence from ringbuffer. Wait/notify strategies will need this as it's the only sequence that is also notified upon update.
        dependentSequence - on which to wait.
        barrier - the processor is waiting on.
        Returns:
        the sequence that is available which may be greater than the requested sequence.
        Throws:
        AlertException - if the status of the Disruptor has changed.
        java.lang.InterruptedException - if the thread is interrupted.
