Another Possible Problem
I think I have just realized that this still isn’t good enough. Now we know that there aren’t any more events, but it is conceivable that a Runnable executing just before the token Runnable has started new threads. Those threads … Continue reading
New Release of ConcJUnit: 20100112
I’ve just made a new release of ConcJUnit: 20100112. This release contains an important addition that I had been thinking about for a while. ConcJUnit already detected failures and uncaught exceptions in the event thread, but since the event thread … Continue reading
Submitted Publication Version of SIGCSE 2010 Paper
I just submitted the publication version of our SIGCSE 2010 paper, Test-First Java Concurrency for the Classroom. Now I’m waiting for the copyright form to be sent, and I’m wondering why that’s not done automatically…
Another Sample Bug for Yield
I coded up two more examples to test the yield strategy. The “split synchronized” example doesn’t work that well (yet), because it fails even without the added yields. I’m looking for common bugs that aren’t obvious. Thread remover = new … Continue reading
Getting Back on That Concurrency Horse
After a lot of work on Mint, I’m now focusing on the concurrent unit testing project again. I had to fight some apparent code rot, which was probably caused by changes from Java 5 to Java 6, but now everything … Continue reading
Paper: Test-First Java Concurrency for the Classroom
Test-First Java Concurrency for the Classroom 41st Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education (SIGCSE 2010) Concurrent programming is becoming more important due to the growing dominance of multi-core processors and the prevalence of graphical user interfaces (GUIs). To prepare students … Continue reading
SIGCSE Paper Accepted!
The paper that I submitted to SIGCSE a month and a half ago, “Test-First Java Concurrency for the Classroom”, got accepted! That means I’m going to Milwaukee in March. Update: I just realized that if my other paper currently under … Continue reading
Today’s Loose Ends
I’m in the process of wrapping up today’syesterday’s loose ends: I made a new ConcJUnit release, 20091019, containing the files for versions 3.8.2 and 4.7, as described at the end of the last post. There is a new version of … Continue reading
Two Confusing Errors
A while ago, I was told by our one-and-only client of Mint that the version of DrJava with Mint does not display Mint as a compiler, even though it is included in the jar file and therefore should be available. … Continue reading
AWT Exception Handler Cannot Be Reset After Exception
When testing ConcJUnit some more from inside DrJava, I noticed some weird behavior. I had a JUnit 3.8.2 version of a test, and an equivalent JUnit 4 version. Run independently, they behaved as expected (which in my line of work … Continue reading
OpenJDK Compatibility for ConcJUnit
I just made a new ConcJUnit release available on SourceForge: version 20090927. While working on integrating Mint into DrJava, I tested it on Mac. Since Mint requires Java 6, that involved using Soylatte, and Soylatte is based on OpenJDK. To … Continue reading
