Warranty of storing variable value before next command in java -

-

i curious if after value assign command this:

a = 5;

there warranty new value has been stored variable? , if different primitive , other data types? , runnable objects.

i have run method in myclass containing:

synchronized(this){      while(pleasewait){          try { system.out.println("sleeping"); wait();}          catch (exception e) {        e.printstacktrace(); }      }   }

is other classes calling method sleepme() contains:

synchronized (myclass){             myclass.pleasewait = true;             myclass.notify(); }

and question is, have insert waiting after calling sleepme, instance of myclass have time change value of myclass.pleasewait ?

i have several set methods, assing complex objects (objects of objects) instance of myclass.

thanks

the fact 2 threads synchronizing on same object means changes made pleasewait 1 thread visible other thread when returns wait() call. synchronization (in case regaining of lock on this when return wait() call) provides required "happens before" relationship between 2 threads ensure update visible.

so answer question:

  • any solution requires 1 thread "wait" in sense. that's inherent in problem.

  • what doing sufficient. don't need add additional waiting. wait/notify mechanism ensures thread wait() see up-to-date copy of variable ... provided changes made while holding object lock.

  • you can implement kind of thing using higher level concurrency classes.

  • you implement using volatile , "busy waiting" ... bad idea.

if set mycoolbar.fixedorder true,only grip on first band hidden. well,if use delphi 7 create vcl forms application,then put coolbar on , create 3 coolbans hold other controls,only grip , top coolbands can hidden setting mycoolbar.fixedorder:=true. i've uploaded picture make things clear. you got fixedorder property wrong. fixed property not allow bands rearranged if set true . setting property of coolbar true keep user changing bands order @ runtime, user can still move , resize bands. can give advice can do, actual solution problem, well, have wait answer. my advice use 3 coolbars in row , setting "fixedorder" property true , bandborderstyle bsnone . way grip hidden on of them. about property, it's not bug of ide, actual preference of property.

javascript - Animating array of divs; only the final element is modified -

this baffling me @ moment. i'm experienced programmer looking throw bit of surprise fiancee on countdown page our wedding. desired effect simulated confetti falling behind main page. setup follows: i have array of divs in javascript. each div absolutely positioned on page. have interval set updates every 50 or milliseconds. on each tick, run loop on array of divs, , calculations , update positions. problem problem having, however, though can see divs created, stored array, , modified (in case, each has slight randomized rotation) during initialization phase, once tick update position starts, div stored in whatever last slot of array gets position updated. tried hard-coding each div index testing purposes, strictly last element update position. upon printing current "left" , "top" style values each div before , after calculations shows value has been changed, no visible change noticeable. here's basic code: javascript var container;
