Class AudioEngineThread

java.lang.Object
  java.lang.Thread
      com.sun.j3d.audioengines.AudioEngineThread

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Runnable

public class AudioEngineThread
extends java.lang.Thread

The Thread Class extended for Audio Device engines that must process calls dynamically, in 'real-time" to asynchronously change engine parameters.

NOTE: this class is probably not needed for those Audio Device implementations that handle all dynamic parameters in the low-level audio library.

Constructor Detail

AudioEngineThread

public AudioEngineThread(java.lang.ThreadGroup t,
                         java.lang.String threadName)

This constructor simply assigns the given id.

Method Detail

doWork

public void doWork()

This method is defined by all slave threads to implement one iteration of work.

initialize

public void initialize()

This initializes this thread. Once this method returns, the thread is ready to do work.

finish

public void finish()

This causes the threads run method to exit.

run

public void run()

Specified by:

run in interface java.lang.Runnable

Overrides:

run in class java.lang.Thread

runMonitor

public void runMonitor(int action,
                       long referenceTime,
                       java.lang.Object[] args)

shutdown

public void shutdown()

cleanup

public void cleanup()
