A few hours ago I have submitted the "Thread Manager" component which is aimed to make an improvement over the infrastructure of threading-related code in the DRLVM. The thread manager code, documentation, tests and integration patch can be found in this issue:
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-1125 With this improvement, DRLVM would have the dedicated threading module with a well-defined interface which may contribute into the concept of the modular JVM. There are open questions with respect to the suggested API and implementation, for example - what should be the relationship between DRLVM's threading subystem and the hythread introduced with the classlib (the suggested thread manager implements most of hythread API). But, whatever we decide it should be, this change still may be worth applied as an initial step toward modularization of the DRLVM. Please see the more details about this in the issue description, I'd be happy to provide more if needed. Thanks, Andrey. -- Andrey Chernyshev Intel Middleware Products Division --------------------------------------------------------------------- Terms of use : http://incubator.apache.org/harmony/mailing.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
