Synchronous Queue example to execute commands (original) (raw)

private BlockingQueue workQueue = new LinkedBlockingQueue(); private Map commandQueueMap = new ConcurrentHashMap();

public SynchronousQueue addCommand(Command command) { SynchronousQueue queue = new SynchronousQueue(); commandQueueMap.put(command, queue); workQueue.offer(command); return queue; }

public Object call() throws Exception { try {

Command command = workQueue.take();

Result result = command.execute();

SynchronousQueue queue = commandQueueMap.get(command);

queue.offer(result);

return null; } catch (InterruptedException e) {

throw new WorkException(e); } }

Now the consumer can safely poll with timeout on its request to have its Command executed.

Command command; SynchronousQueue queue = commandRunner.addCommand(command); Result result = queue.poll(2, TimeUnit.MINUTES); if (result == null) { throw new CommandTooLongException(command); } else { return result; }
