Class BaseItem.MainThread
java.lang.Object
gnu.cajo.utils.BaseItem.MainThread
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- java.lang.Runnable
- Enclosing class:
- BaseItem
public abstract class BaseItem.MainThread
- extends java.lang.Object
- implements java.lang.Runnable
The main processing thread of this object. An object can be either
entirely, event driven, i.e. executing only when its methods are being
invoked, or can also have a thread of its own. If non-null, it will be
started upon its binding by the ItemServer
, where
its startThread
method will be invoked.
This is an an inner class of BaseItem, to allow its implementations
access to the object's private and protected members and methods.
This is critical because all public methods of BaseItem can be
invoked by remote objects, just as with local objects.
