Subject: RE: Thread Behavior - Deadlock
I couldn't file an issue at ISSUE tracker because bugzilla still doesnt have
an xmlrpc project yet.
below is a patch I suggested to hannes a couple of days ago.
Obviously I beleive there are better solutions than the quik patch i have
posted here. Ideally,
the NORMAL method for making threads terminate -
as shown by Eckel ("thinking in java -p.874) &
Oreilley's Oaks & Wong (Java Threads 2nd ed - p. 160)
A semaphore would be best:
This implementation is shown after the FIRST one below:
(Also, in BOTH patches, a BETTER EXCEPTION catch is needed - i just am too
ignorant to know what to
put in the catch clauses for these kinds of try blocks!)
*****************************
qUIKPATch
*****************************
I am discovering that when I call shutdown on my instantiated Webserver,
It does not completely exit all threads.
I tried a minor modification to shutdown
********** - Webserver.java Shutdown()
if (listener != null)
{
++ try {
++ runners.interrupt();
++ }
++ catch (Exception er)
++ {
++ System.err.println ( er);
++ er.printStackTrace();
++ }
Thread l = listener;
listenr = null;
l.interrupt();
**********
which required adding a safety clause in Runner.run
********** Webserver.java Runner.run()
-- while (Thread.currentThread() == thread)
++ while (con != null && Thread.currentThread() == thread)
**********
This seemed to solve my problem, which was that the thread created by
Webserver would not go away!
Any ideas...was I doing something incorrectly in the first place?
Or is this a bug that should be fixed?
ignorantly,
ashley raiteri

THERE is no Need to improve the Connection.run thread, because it does not
perform a While loop!

Subject: cvs commit: xml-rpc/src/java/org/apache/xmlrpc WebServer.java
dlr 01/08/11 03:13:07
Modified: src/java/org/apache/xmlrpc WebServer.java
Log:
* Added createServerSocket() factory method (for subclassing by
SecureWebServer).
* Refactored setupServerSocket() method to initialize the WebServer's
listener to the socket created by createServerSocket(). Also set a
timeout on the socket so it doesn't block forever when accept() is
called (more on this below).
* Since SO_TIMEOUT is now being set on our listener socket, we can
actually shutdown properly now. An InterruptedIOException will be
thrown every 4 seconds while the listener is blocking on accept(). If
the server has been told to shutdown, this will allow it to actually
happen before another client connection comes in. This bug was
originally reported by Ilkka Priha <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, and was fixed
by myself long ago (while it was still @ Helma):
"The helma webserver shutdown method sets a listener acting as a flag
to null and calls interrupt() for the thread, but blocking I/O
operations don't care about thread interrupts. By default, the server
socket accept() method waits forever or until the socket is closed. I
think that the server socket should either have a preset SO_TIMEOUT
interrupting I/O waits at regular intervals or the shutdown() method
should simply close the server socket."
* Formatting cleanup.

Subject: RE: Thread Behavior - Deadlock
I was just about to report this very fault...
We use xmlrpc between our server and loadtest agents. As the OP points out,
the runners threadgroup seems to remains active even after calling
Webserver.shutdown()
If you wait long enough on Win2K, the threads evenutally do shutdown (but
print stacktraces to the console). On Linux, it seems like they remain up
indefinitely - any attempt to form new connections over the same ports
results in a 'Address already in use' type runtime exception.
This reminds me of another improvement I'd like to see. Currently, the
WebServer class dumps exceptions to the console during execution. This
looks really bad if the console output is being captured to a report.
Is there any way this could be either:
a) Configurable based on XmlRpc.debug like I've seen in some other parts
of the code.
b) Better yet, allow for some installable 'error handler' that allows the
exceptions to be dealt with in an application specific manner.
Cheers
--Richie.
