Interface ActivityHandle

public interface ActivityHandle
ActivityHandle is used as a representation of a single activity when it is suspended from a running thread and may be later resumed. The implementation of the token can be as lightweight as required by the underlying implementation in order that it can uniquely represent all activity instances. Since this is a client-facing class, it is unlikely that the application user will typically want to see the entire activity context in order to simply suspend it from the thread.

  • Method Details

    • getTimeout

      int getTimeout()
      Returns:
      the timeout associated with this activity.

    • equals

      boolean equals(Object obj)
      Although users won't typically care what the underlying implementation of a context is, they will need to do comparisons. So, although this method is provided by Java.Object we have it here to ensure that we don't forget to implement it! Two instances are equal if the refer to the same transaction.
      Overrides:
      equals in class Object
      Returns:
      true if the two objects are the same, false otherwise.

    • hashCode

      int hashCode()
      Although users won't typically care what the underlying implementation of a context is, they will need to do comparisons. So, although this method is provided by Java.Object we have it here to ensure that we don't forget to implement it!
      Overrides:
      hashCode in class Object
      Returns:
      the hash value for the target.

    • valid

      boolean valid()
      Returns:
      whether or not this is a valid handle.

    • tid

      String tid()
      Returns:
      the unique activity identifier.
