• run

  public void run()

• getLocatorPidFile

  protected java.io.File getLocatorPidFile()

  Gets a File reference with the path to the PID file for the Locator.

  Returns:

  a File reference to the path of the Locator's PID file.

• start

  public LocatorLauncher.LocatorState start()

  Starts a Locator running on the specified port and bind address, as determined by getPort and getSocketAddress respectively, defaulting to 10334 and 'localhost' if not specified, with both peer and server location enabled. 'start' is an asynchronous invocation of the Locator. As such, this method makes no guarantees whether the Locator's location services (peer and server) are actually running before it returns. The Locator's location-based services are initiated in separate, daemon Threads and depends on the relative timing and scheduling of those Threads by the JVM. If the application using this API wishes for the Locator to continue running after normal application processing completes, then one must call waitOnLocator. Given the nature of start, the Locator's status will be in either 1 of 2 possible states. If the 'request' to start the Locator proceeds without exception, the status will be 'STARTED'. However, if any exception is encountered during the normal startup sequence, then a RuntimeException is thrown and the status is set to 'STOPPED'.

  Returns:

  a LocatorState to reflect the state of the Locator after start.

  Throws:

  java.lang.RuntimeException - if the Locator failed to start for any reason.

  java.lang.IllegalStateException - if the Locator is already running.

• getDistributedSystemProperties

  protected java.util.Properties getDistributedSystemProperties()

  Description copied from class: AbstractLauncher
  Creates a Properties object with configuration settings that the launcher has that should take precedence over anything the user has defined in their gemfire properties file.

  Overrides:

  getDistributedSystemProperties in class AbstractLauncher<java.lang.String>

  Returns:

  a Properties object with GemFire properties that the launcher has defined.

• waitOnLocator

  public LocatorLauncher.LocatorState waitOnLocator()

  Waits on the Locator to stop causing the calling Thread to join with the Locator's location-based services Thread.

  Returns:

  the Locator's status once it stops.

  Throws:

  java.lang.AssertionError - if the Locator has not been started and the reference is null (assertions must be enabled for the error to be thrown).

  See Also:

  failOnStart(Throwable), AbstractLauncher.Status, LocatorLauncher.LocatorState

• waitOnStatusResponse

  public LocatorLauncher.LocatorState waitOnStatusResponse​(long timeout,
                                                           long interval,
                                                           java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit timeUnit)

  Waits for a Locator status request response to be returned up to the specified timeout in the given unit of time. This call will send status requests at fixed intervals in the given unit of time until the timeout expires. If the request to determine the Locator's status is successful, then the Locator is considered to be 'ONLINE'. Otherwise, the Locator is considered to be unresponsive to the status request. However, this does not necessarily imply the Locator start was unsuccessful, only that a response was not received in the given time period. Note, this method does not block or cause the Locator's location-based services (daemon Threads) to continue running in anyway if the main application Thread terminates when running the Locator in-process. If the caller wishes to start a Locator in an asynchronous manner within the application process, then a call should be made to waitOnLocator.

  Parameters:

  timeout - a long value in time unit indicating when the period of time should expire in attempting to determine the Locator's status.

  interval - a long value in time unit for how frequent the requests should be sent to the Locator.

  timeUnit - the unit of time in which the timeout and interval are measured.

  Returns:

  the state of the Locator, which will either be 'ONLINE' or "NOT RESPONDING'. If the status returned is 'NOT RESPONDING', it just means the Locator did not respond to the status request within the given time period. It should not be taken as the Locator failed to start.

  See Also:

  waitOnLocator()

• status

  public LocatorLauncher.LocatorState status()

  Attempts to determine the state of the Locator. The Locator's status will be in only 1 of 2 possible states, either ONLINE or OFFLINE. This method behaves differently depending on which parameters were specified when the LocatorLauncher was constructed with an instance of Builder. If either the 'dir' or the 'pid' command-line option were specified, then an attempt is made to determine the Locator's status by using the dir or pid to correctly identify the Locator's MemberMXBean registered in the MBeanServer of the Locator's JVM, and invoking the 'status' operation. The same behavior occurs if the caller specified the Locator's Geode member name or ID. However, if 'dir' or 'pid' were not specified, then determining the Locator's status defaults to using the configured bind address and port. If the bind address or port was not specified when using the Builder to construct a LocatorLauncher instance, then the defaults for both bind address and port are used. In either case, an actual TCP/IP request is made to the Locator's ServerSocket to ensure it is listening for client requests. This is true even when the LocatorLauncher is used in-process by calling the API. If the conditions above hold, then the Locator is deemed to be 'ONLINE', otherwise, the Locator is considered 'OFFLINE'.

  Returns:

  the Locator's state.

  See Also:

  start(), stop(), AbstractLauncher.Status, LocatorLauncher.LocatorState

• isStoppable

  protected boolean isStoppable()

  Determines whether the Locator can be stopped in-process, such as when a Locator is embedded in an application and the LocatorLauncher API is being used.

  Returns:

  a boolean indicating whether the Locator can be stopped in-process (the application's process with an embedded Locator).

• stop

  public LocatorLauncher.LocatorState stop()

  Stop shuts the running Locator down. Using the API, the Locator is requested to stop by calling the Locator object's 'stop' method. Internally, this method is no different than using the LocatorLauncher class from the command-line or from within Geode shell (Gfsh). In every single case, stop sends a TCP/IP 'shutdown' request on the configured address/port to which the Locator is bound and listening. If the "shutdown" request is successful, then the Locator will be 'STOPPED'. Otherwise, the Locator is considered 'OFFLINE' since the actual state cannot be fully assessed (as in the application process in which the Locator was hosted may still be running and the Locator object may still exist even though it is no longer responding to location-based requests). The later is particularly important in cases where the system resources (such as Sockets) may not have been cleaned up yet. Therefore, by returning a status of 'OFFLINE', the value is meant to reflect this in-deterministic state.

  Returns:

  a LocatorState indicating the state of the Locator after stop has been requested.

  start(), status(), LocatorLauncher.LocatorState, AbstractLauncher.Status.NOT_RESPONDING, AbstractLauncher.Status.STOPPED
