SharedValue

public SharedValue(org.apache.curator.framework.CuratorFramework client,

                   byte[] seedValue)

Parameters:

client - the client

path - the shared path - i.e. where the shared value is stored

seedValue - the initial value for the value if/f the path has not yet been created

Method Detail

getValue

public byte[] getValue()

Description copied from interface: SharedValueReader

Return the current value of the count

Specified by:

getValue in interface SharedValueReader

Returns:

count

setValue

public void setValue(byte[] newValue)
              throws Exception

Change the shared value value irrespective of its previous state

Parameters:

newValue - new value

Throws:

Exception - ZK errors, interruptions, etc.

trySetValue

public boolean trySetValue(byte[] newValue)
                    throws Exception

Changes the shared value only if its value has not changed since this client last read it. If the value has changed, the value is not set and this client's view of the value is updated. i.e. if the value is not successful you can get the updated value by calling getValue().

Parameters:

newValue - the new value to attempt

Returns:

true if the change attempt was successful, false if not. If the change was not successful, getValue() will return the updated value

Throws:

Exception - ZK errors, interruptions, etc.

getListenable

public org.apache.curator.framework.listen.ListenerContainer<SharedValueListener> getListenable()

Returns the listenable

Specified by:

getListenable in interface SharedValueReader

Returns:

listenable

start

public void start()
           throws Exception

The shared value must be started before it can be used. Call close() when you are finished with the shared value

Throws:

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Specified by:
