The active object design pattern decouples method execution from method invocation for objects that each reside in their own thread of control.[1] The goal is to introduce concurrency, by using asynchronous method invocation and a scheduler for handling requests.[2] The pattern consists of six elements:[3]
ExampleJavaAn example of active object pattern in Java.[4] Firstly we can see a standard class that provides two methods that set a double to be a certain value. This class does NOT conform to the active object pattern. class MyClass { private double val = 0.0; void doSomething() { val = 1.0; } void doSomethingElse() { val = 2.0; }} The class is dangerous in a multithreading scenario because both methods can be called simultaneously, so the value of val (which is not atomic—it's updated in multiple steps) could be undefined—a classic race condition. You can, of course, use synchronization to solve this problem, which in this trivial case is easy. But once the class becomes realistically complex, synchronization can become very difficult. [5] To rewrite this class as an active object you could do the following: class MyActiveObject { public MyActiveObject() { new Thread (new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { while(true) { try { dispatchQueue.take().run(); } catch (InterruptedException e) { // okay, just terminate the dispatcher } } } } ).start(); } void doSomething() throws InterruptedException { dispatchQueue.put(new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { val = 1.0; } } ); } void doSomethingElse() throws InterruptedException { dispatchQueue.put(new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { val = 2.0; } } ); }} Java 8 (alternative)Another example of active object pattern in Java instead implemented in Java 8 providing a shorter solution. public class MyClass { private double val; // container for tasks // decides which request to execute next // asyncMode=true means our worker thread processes its local task queue in the FIFO order // only single thread may modify internal state private final ForkJoinPool fj = new ForkJoinPool(1, ForkJoinPool.defaultForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory, null, true); // implementation of active object method public void doSomething() throws InterruptedException { fj.execute(() -> {val = 1.0;}); } // implementation of active object method public void doSomethingElse() throws InterruptedException { fj.execute(() -> {val = 2.0;}); }} See also
