Hey everyone, We're announcing a new trusted tester program for Java developers: Java threads. This is a feature we’d like to release sometime in one of the next upcoming versions. You’d be able to create Threads using a ThreadFactory (so existing libraries that create threads through other means won’t work) and run these threads within the scope of the request. The Javadocs for this feature are already online:
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/java/javadoc/com/google/appengine/api/ThreadManager.html Note that if you try to deploy your application and your application has not yet been whitelisted, this will cause your application to throw a FeatureNotAvailableException. If you’re interested in taking this feature for a spin, please sign up here: https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dEstOEluU0RLdHpLRDhva0J3WDJQQWc6MQ If you are selected, you’ll be added to a Google Group where you can ask questions and provide feedback on the API. Please only sign up if you are actually interested in running this; if you don’t plan on running this on App Engine servers (either in a QA/test, staging, or, if you are brave - production!) I suggest you just test it out on the local SDK or wait for general release. You’ll need to sign an electronic NDA if you haven’t signed one before (this is pretty standard of all of our trusted tester releases). I’ll begin sending out NDAs and whitelisting users next week. -- Ikai Lan Developer Programs Engineer, Google App Engine plus.ikailan.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine for Java" group.
