Method Detail

startup

public final void startup()

Start the component/threads.

shutdown

public final void shutdown()

Shutdown the component.

run

public final void run()

The run method.

Specified by:

run in interface java.lang.Runnable

execute

public abstract void execute()

This is implemented by the extending class. It's called in the thread's run method in an infinite loop. It sleeps if configured to do so.

setThreadCount

public final void setThreadCount(int pCount)

Set the thread count. THis must be called before startup and does nothing after startup is called.

Parameters:

pCount - The number of threads to spawn.

getThreadCount

public final int getThreadCount()

Returns the thread count.

Returns:

The thread count.
