multithreading - EDT in Java, how does it work, does it behave like normal thread (single or mutli)? -


this beginner question: working on small chat program use tcp deliver messages, , have simple gui display it, have finished program, edt has confused me lot...

  1. does edt behave "extends thread"? imagine single thread since need worker thread process heavy logic, apparently can not thread.sleep/yield (i have while loop reading message outputstream , append jtextarea, running in main thread, tried terminate while loop set false flag , yield main thread, did not work.)

  2. i not sure how listener works, if have write it...i start thread each listener, hear process it...but wrong because make edt multithread ( lot of ears ) singlethread during process ( 1 brain )

this must me lacking knowledge!! because in head can not figure out how fire event... pressed button , java knows? must missed something.

my first time post question, hope clear

the event dispatching thread thread other thread in java.

it responsible dispatching events , repaint requests (and few other things, running synchronized runnable). action take blocks edt stop processing these events, making application has hung ... because has.

all interactions ui component must executed within context of edt. means should never try , create or update ui component thread other edt.

if need actions blocking or time consuming, should use thread. swingworker excellent place start.

adding listeners component not create more threads. edt post event notifications listeners (this incredibly shortened explanation, concept sound), 1 of reasons why should never block edt.

how events raised depends on component. mouse , keyboard events example, posted event queue native portion of code dependent on os/implementation (as understand it, coming toolkit, wrong).

actionperformed events raised jbuttons may executed directly against listener (not dispatched via event queue), within edt. raised number of events, typically caused mouse clicks , special key events. jbutton notified of these because registers event queue.

while getting understanding of workings goal, need ask yourself, matter (in short term)? know how electricity gets light switch light? or care does?

understand rules required use (don't stick sharp objects power points) , let understanding come become more confident.

css - Make div keyboard-scrollable in jQuery Mobile? -

from can tell, although jquery-mobile-powered pages can contain divs overflow set scroll or auto, , these divs can scrolled one-screen bar or mouse wheel, cannot scrolled using arrow keys, page-up/page-down, or home/end. instead, official "page" div (with data-role="page") absorbs input. perhaps other divs can't acquire focus, i'm not sure. is there way around this? edit: jsfiddle of simple example: https://jsfiddle.net/qogz0shx/ <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquerymobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile.min.js"> </script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.css"/> <style> #outer { overflow:scroll; height: 50vh; width: 50vw; } #inner { height: 500vh; width: 500vw; } ...

ruby on rails - Seeing duplicate requests handled with Unicorn -

recently upgraded our ec2 instances c3.large in order boost more unicorn workers handle increased traffic our site. (6xworkers per machine - 2 ec2 instances). when did this, started seeing duplicate records being created! looks somehow, maybe 2 unicorn workers attempting process same request? in nginx logs see 1 [post] request particular rails controller - yet 2 records being created in database. i'm hitting kind of race condition issue - have no idea how debug this. doesn't happen time, when it's frustrating well. noticed 2 database records within 5 seconds of each other. (and yes disable button when user clicks submit button). unicorn 4.8.2 ruby 1.9.3 rails 3.2.14 any great! thanks! although may not fix problem, upgrade ruby 2.0.0. there blog mentioning idea upgrade ruby 2.0.0 if using unicorn. for example: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-optimize-unicorn-workers-in-a-ruby-on-rails-app specifically: if using ruby 1.9, ...
