Class HazelcastClient

java.lang.Object
  com.hazelcast.client.HazelcastClient

All Implemented Interfaces:

HazelcastInstance

public class HazelcastClient
extends Object
implements HazelcastInstance

Hazelcast Client enables you to do all Hazelcast operations without being a member of the cluster. It connects to one of the cluster members and delegates all cluster wide operations to it. When the connected cluster member dies, client will automatically switch to another live member.

Method Detail

getInRunnable

public InRunnable getInRunnable()

getOutRunnable

public OutRunnable getOutRunnable()

newHazelcastClient

public static HazelcastClient newHazelcastClient(ClientConfig config)

Parameters:

config -

Returns:

getConfig

public Config getConfig()

Description copied from interface: HazelcastInstance

Returns the configuration of this Hazelcast instance.

Specified by:

getConfig in interface HazelcastInstance

Returns:

configuration of this Hazelcast instance

getPartitionService

public PartitionService getPartitionService()

Description copied from interface: HazelcastInstance

Returns the partition service of this Hazelcast instance. PartitionService allows you to introspect current partitions in the cluster, partition owner members and listen for partition migration events.

Specified by:

getPartitionService in interface HazelcastInstance

Returns:

partition service

getClientService

public ClientService getClientService()

Description copied from interface: HazelcastInstance

Returns the client service of this Hazelcast instance. Client service allows you to get information about connected clients.

Specified by:

getClientService in interface HazelcastInstance

Returns:

getLoggingService

public LoggingService getLoggingService()

Description copied from interface: HazelcastInstance

Returns the logging service of this Hazelcast instance. LoggingService allows you to listen for LogEvents generated by Hazelcast runtime. You can log the events somewhere or take action base on the message.

Specified by:

getLoggingService in interface HazelcastInstance

Returns:

logging service

getMap

public <K,V> IMap<K,V> getMap(String name)

Description copied from interface: HazelcastInstance

Returns the distributed map instance with the specified name.

Specified by:

getMap in interface HazelcastInstance

Parameters:

name - name of the distributed map

Returns:

distributed map instance with the specified name

getClientProxy

public <K,V,E> Object getClientProxy(Object o)

getTransaction

public Transaction getTransaction()

Description copied from interface: HazelcastInstance

Returns the transaction instance associated with the current thread, creates a new one if it wasn't already.

Transaction doesn't start until you call transaction.begin() and if a transaction is started then all transactional Hazelcast operations are automatically transactional.

  Map map = Hazelcast.getMap("mymap");
  Transaction txn = Hazelcast.getTransaction();
  txn.begin();
  try {
    map.put ("key", "value");
    txn.commit();
  }catch (Exception e) {
    txn.rollback();
  }
 

Isolation is always REPEATABLE_READ . If you are in a transaction, you can read the data in your transaction and the data that is already committed and if not in a transaction, you can only read the committed data. Implementation is different for queue and map/set. For queue operations (offer,poll), offered and/or polled objects are copied to the next member in order to safely commit/rollback. For map/set, Hazelcast first acquires the locks for the write operations (put, remove) and holds the differences (what is added/removed/updated) locally for each transaction. When transaction is set to commit, Hazelcast will release the locks and apply the differences. When rolling back, Hazelcast will simply releases the locks and discard the differences. Transaction instance is attached to the current thread and each Hazelcast operation checks if the current thread holds a transaction, if so, operation will be transaction aware. When transaction is committed, rolled back or timed out, it will be detached from the thread holding it.

Specified by:

getTransaction in interface HazelcastInstance

Returns:

transaction for the current thread

getLock

public ILock getLock(Object obj)

Description copied from interface: HazelcastInstance

Returns the distributed lock instance for the specified key object. The specified object is considered to be the key for this lock. So keys are considered equals cluster-wide as long as they are serialized to the same byte array such as String, long, Integer.

Locks are fail-safe. If a member holds a lock and some of the members go down, cluster will keep your locks safe and available. Moreover, when a member leaves the cluster, all the locks acquired by this dead member will be removed so that these locks can be available for live members immediately.

 Lock lock = Hazelcast.getLock("PROCESS_LOCK");
 lock.lock();
 try {
   // process
 } finally {
   lock.unlock();
