Class VM

java.lang.Object
  com.sun.squawk.VM

public class VM extends Object
extends Object

This is a Squawk VM specific class that is used to communicate between executing Java software and the low level core VM that is expressed in machine code. There are two parts to this. There are a set of native methods that are used to invoke very low level operations like manipulating memory at a very low level or performing I/O. In the other direction there are a number of methods that the low level core may call. These are used to implement high level operations that are better done in Java than in machine code.

A special version of this class exists for the romizer. The romizer version only implements the methods used to manipulate memory.

                         Object receive)
                  throws IOException

Executes a I/O operation that may block. This requires at least 2 calls to the IO sub-system: the first to execute the operation and the second to get the status of the operation (success = 0, failure < 0 or blocked > 0). If the status is success, then a third call to the IO sub-system is made to retrieve the result of the operation. If the status indicates that an exception occcurred in the IO sub-system, then an IOException is thrown. If the status indicates that the IO sub-system is blocked, then the status value is used as an event number to block the current thread and put it on a queue of threads waiting for an event.

Parameters:: op - the opcode; channel - the channel number; i1 - an integer parameter; i2 - an integer parameter; i3 - an integer parameter; i4 - an integer parameter; i5 - an integer parameter; i6 - an integer parameter; send - an outgoing array parameter; receive - an incoming array parameter
Returns:: the integer result value

println

public static void println(long x)

Prints a long followed by a new line to the VM output stream.

Parameters:: x - the value

println

public static void println(String x)

Prints a string followed by a new line to the VM output stream.

Parameters:: x - the string

println

public static void println(boolean x)

Prints a boolean followed by a new line to the VM output stream.

Parameters:: x - the value

putKeyedGlobal

public static Object putKeyedGlobal(int key,
                                    Object value)

Set the global registered for key. All clients must wrap access to keyed globals in a synchronised block:


 synchronized (VM.getGlobalsMutex()) {
   // access/manipulate globals here ...
 }

Parameters:: key -; value -
Returns:: value

setAsDaemonThread

public static void setAsDaemonThread(Thread t)

Mark the specified thread to be a daemon thread (won't prevent VM from exiting). If this thread is alive, an IllegalThreadStateException is thrown.

Parameters:: t - The thread

setProperty

public static void setProperty(String name,
                               String value)

On a hosted system , this calls System.setProperty(), otherwise calls Isolate.currentIsolate().setProperty()

Parameters:: name - property name; value - property value

setStream

public static int setStream(int stream)

Sets the stream for the VM.print... methods to one of the STREAM_... constants.

Parameters:: stream - the stream to use for the print... methods
Returns:: the current stream used for VM printing

setSystemThreadPriority

public static void setSystemThreadPriority(Thread t,
                                           int level)

Sets the given thread to the given priority, bounded by MAX_SYS_PRIORITY (eg. allowing higher than normal priority levels) Note that threads created by a thread with "system" priority do not inherit the system priority level, but default to NORM_PRIORITY. Should only be called by system code. This interface likely to change to more RTSJ-like scheme.

Parameters:: t - The thread; level - the system priority level (currently supports normal priorities as well as 11, and 12)
Throws:: IllegalArgumentException - If the priority is not in the range MIN_PRIORITY to MAX_SYS_PRIORITY.

shallowCopy

public static Object shallowCopy(Object original)

Perform a shallow copy of the original object, without calling a constructor WARNING: This is bypassing the write barrier, which is (sort of) OK because we are writing to a new object. This can't create a ptr from old->young gen, which is what write barrier is looking for. Don't copy this code for other purposes!

Parameters:: original - the iobject to copy
Returns:: a copy of the original object.

startTracing

public static void startTracing()

Start the VM tracing if tracing support is enabled.

stopVM

public static void stopVM(int code)

Halt the VM in the normal way. Any registered shutdown hooks will be run.

Parameters:: code - the exit status code.
See Also:: Isolate.addLifecycleListener(com.sun.squawk.Isolate.LifecycleListener, int)

unregisterSuite

public static void unregisterSuite(String uri)

If the suite is registered, unregister it with the garbage collector. Otherwise do nothing.

Parameters:: uri - the suite to unregister.

userGCAllowed

public static boolean userGCAllowed()

Tests if Runtime.gc() is allowed.

Returns:: true if calls to Runtime.gc() are allowed

usingTypeMap

public static boolean usingTypeMap()

Determines if the VM was built with memory access type checking enabled.

Returns:: true if the VM was built with memory access type checking enabled

waitForDeepSleep

public static long waitForDeepSleep(long minimumDeepSleepTime)

Wait until it's possible that we can go to deep sleep. It's possible if the thread scheduler has nothing to do for at least a certain length of time

Parameters:: minimumDeepSleepTime - the minimum time (in millis) that it's worth deep sleeping
Returns:: the target wake up time (in System clock millis) that we should return from deep sleep

waitForInterrupt

public static void waitForInterrupt(int irq)
                             throws IOException

Waits for an interrupt.

Parameters:: irq - mask for interrupt
Throws:: IOException
