It appear that the the linux implementation of java does not do
time-slicing (I'm running jdk 1.1.7v1a, using the tya jit). Is that
correct?
If so, does anyone have any suggestions for simulating time-slicing
(other than throwing in a lot of yields())?
My curent problem involves writing a gui that monitors a rather
lengthly process. I'd like to have the compute intensive method
update a gui monitor as it proceeds. However, the compute intensive
method seems to consume all the time - the gui doesn't even get
repainted until the compute intensive method finishes. Raising the
priority of the gui (and putting in a few yields()) doesn't make any
differences.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
