Ausführen mehrerer Fälle von Netbeans RCP -Anwendung gleichzeitig

Question

Wir haben eine Anwendung, die auf der Netbeans Rich Client -Plattform basiert.

Das Standardverhalten ist, dass nur eine Instanz der Software ausgeführt werden kann, und dies kann durch Angabe eines anderen Benutzer-Z-Größens als Argument beim Starten der Anwendung überschrieben werden.

Gibt es Alternativen dazu? Unsere Kunden sind darauf angewiesen, mehrere Fälle der Anwendung auszuführen.

(Wir würden es vorziehen, wenn wir keinen eigenen Launcher implementieren müssten, der NetBeans UserDir für Sperren untersucht, um alternative UserDirs zu übergeben.)

Gibt es im NetBeans RCP einen Einbau, um mehrere Instanzen einfach zu unterstützen?

Prost /b

Answer 1

Ich kann also keinen richtigen Weg finden, um dies zu tun (es scheint, als würde es mit NB 7 über einen neuen Launcher -Eingabeparameter verfügbar sein), habe mein Arbeitskamerad es auf eine etwas hackische Weise implementiert.

Er erstellte eine alternative Hauptklasse, die die Benutzer-Zapfen-Eigenschaft überprüft und manipuliert, sodass jede Instanz einen eigenen Benutzerdir erhält.

Ich bin immer noch überrascht, dass Netbeans diese Funktionalität nicht hat!

import org.netbeans.Main;

/**
 * Launches Netbeans Rich Client Platform application where mulitple instances of 
 * the application can run simultaneously for the same user.
 * <p>
 * Netbeans does not allow to run several instances of an application for the same 
 * user simultaneously, but this class does the job by fooling Netbeans.
 * If an instance is already running then a new folder is created and used for this instance.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * This is quite tricky and this class is indeed a hack to override Netbeans behaviour.
 * An example makes it a little easier to understand, when application is first started 
 * Netbeans userdir is set from a configuration file like {@code etc/xxxxx.conf} to something like:<br>
 * {@code /home/username/.xxxxx/dev/} which includes a lock file.
 * <br>
 * If application is started again then this lock file is checked and Netbeans tries to connect to the other instance through a socket.
 * This class does the trick by never using this folder but instead creating unique directories for each instance like:<br>
 * {@code /home/username/.xxxxx/instance_01/netbeans/}<br>
 * {@code /home/username/.xxxxx/instance_02/netbeans/}<br>
 * {@code /home/username/.xxxxx/instance_03/netbeans/}<br>
 * ...
 * </p>

Answer 2

Ich bin der mysteriöse Entwickler, der das geschrieben hat MultipleInstancesMain Klasse oben =)

Als Antwort auf die Fragen von Swati Sharma und Uvaraj oben könnten diese Notizen helfen:

(1) Die oben genannte alternative Hauptklasse sollte für Anwendungen funktionieren, die auf der Netbeans -Plattform 6.5.1 (unseren Do) basieren, andere Versionen, von denen ich nichts weiß.

. Das Glas wird dann an die kopiert /[Appname]/Module// Ordner (also ist es auf Netbeans ClassPath)

(3) Das separate Projekt kann kein NetBeans -Modul sein, ich denke, es wird zyklische Abhängigkeit oder Netbeans -Klasse -Klassenloader oder ähnliches nicht verarbeiten.

(4) Unsere Anwendung wird dann durch Hinzufügen von Parametern zur Konfigurationsdatei gestartet /..appname weibs/etc/.conf:

default_options="-J-Dnetbeans.mainclass=com.appname.startup.MultipleInstancesMain"

Hoffe es hilft // Uhlén
