Class LoggingBufferManager


  • public class LoggingBufferManager
    extends java.lang.Object
    A paged random access buffer manager that caches access between a Store and the underlying filesystem and that also handles check point logging and crash recovery (via a JournalledSystem object).

    • Method Detail

      • start

        public void start()
                   throws java.io.IOException
        Starts the buffer manager.
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
      • stop

        public void stop()
                  throws java.io.IOException
        Stops the buffer manager.
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
      • lockForWrite

        public void lockForWrite()
                          throws java.lang.InterruptedException
        Obtains a write lock on the buffer. This will block if a 'setCheckPoint' is in progress, otherwise it will always succeed.
        Throws:
        java.lang.InterruptedException
      • unlockForWrite

        public void unlockForWrite()
        Releases a write lock on the buffer. This MUST be called if the 'lockForWrite' method is called. This should be called from a 'finally' clause.
      • setCheckPoint

        public void setCheckPoint​(boolean flush_journals)
                           throws java.io.IOException,
                                  java.lang.InterruptedException
        Sets a check point in the log. This logs a point in which a recovery process should at least be able to be rebuild back to. This will block if there are any write locks.

        Some things to keep in mind when using this. You must ensure that no writes can occur while this operation is occuring. Typically this will happen at the end of a commit but you need to ensure that nothing can happen in the background, such as records being deleted or items being inserted. It is required that the 'no write' restriction is enforced at a high level. If care is not taken then the image written will not be clean and if a crash occurs the image that is recovered will not be stable.

        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
        java.lang.InterruptedException
