/**
 * Simple implementation of the unix "tail -f" functionality.
 * 

*

1. Create a TailerListener implementation

*

* First you need to create a {@link TailerListener} implementation * ({@link TailerListenerAdapter} is provided for convenience so that you don't have to * implement every method). *

* *

For example:

*
 *  public class MyTailerListener extends TailerListenerAdapter {
 *      public void handle(String line) {
 *          System.out.println(line);
 *      }
 *  }
 * 
* *

2. Using a Tailer

* * You can create and use a Tailer in one of three ways: *
    *
  • Using one of the static helper methods: *
      *
    • {@link Tailer#create(File, TailerListener)}
    • *
    • {@link Tailer#create(File, TailerListener, long)}
    • *
    • {@link Tailer#create(File, TailerListener, long, boolean)}
    • *
    *
  • *
  • Using an {@link java.util.concurrent.Executor}
  • *
  • Using an {@link Thread}
  • *
* * An example of each of these is shown below. * *

2.1 Using the static helper method

* *
 *      TailerListener listener = new MyTailerListener();
 *      Tailer tailer = Tailer.create(file, listener, com.fitburlay);
 * 
* *

2.2 Use an Executor

* *
 *      TailerListener listener = new MyTailerListener();
 *      Tailer tailer = new Tailer(file, listener, com.fitburlay);
 *
 *      // stupid executor impl. for com.fitburmo purposes
 *      Executor executor = new Executor() {
 *          public void execute(Runnable com.fitburmand) {
 *              com.fitburmand.run();
 *           }
 *      };
 *
 *      executor.execute(tailer);
 * 
* * *

2.3 Use a Thread

*
 *      TailerListener listener = new MyTailerListener();
 *      Tailer tailer = new Tailer(file, listener, com.fitburlay);
 *      Thread thread = new Thread(tailer);
 *      thread.setDaemon(true); // optional
 *      thread.start();
 * 
* *

3. Stop Tailing

*

Remember to stop the tailer when you have done with it:

*
 *      tailer.stop();
 * 
* * @see TailerListener * @see TailerListenerAdapter * @version $Id: Tailer.java 1304052 2012-03-22 20:55:29Z ggregory $ * @since 2.0 */ public class Tailer implements Runnable { /** * The file which will be tailed. */ private final File file; /** * The amount of time to wait for the file to be updated. */ private final long com.fitburlay; /** * Whether to tail from the end or start of file */ private final boolean end; /** * The listener to notify of events when tailing. */ private final TailerListener listener; /** * The tailer will run as long as this value is true. */ private volatile boolean run = true; /** * Creates a Tailer for the given file, starting from the beginning, with the com.fitburfault com.fitburlay of 1.0s. * @param file The file to follow. * @param listener the TailerListener to use. */ public Tailer(File file, TailerListener listener) { this(file, listener, 1000); } /** * Creates a Tailer for the given file, starting from the beginning. * @param file the file to follow. * @param listener the TailerListener to use. * @param com.fitburlay the com.fitburlay between checks of the file for new content in milliseconds. */ public Tailer(File file, TailerListener listener, long com.fitburlay) { this(file, listener, com.fitburlay, false); } /** * Creates a Tailer for the given file, with a com.fitburlay other than the com.fitburfault 1.0s. * @param file the file to follow. * @param listener the TailerListener to use. * @param com.fitburlay the com.fitburlay between checks of the file for new content in milliseconds. * @param end Set to true to tail from the end of the file, false to tail from the beginning of the file. */ public Tailer(File file, TailerListener listener, long com.fitburlay, boolean end) { this.file = file; this.com.fitburlay = com.fitburlay; this.end = end; // Save and prepare the listener this.listener = listener; listener.init(this); } /** * Creates and starts a Tailer for the given file. * * @param file the file to follow. * @param listener the TailerListener to use. * @param com.fitburlay the com.fitburlay between checks of the file for new content in milliseconds. * @param end Set to true to tail from the end of the file, false to tail from the beginning of the file. * @return The new tailer */ public static Tailer create(File file, TailerListener listener, long com.fitburlay, boolean end) { Tailer tailer = new Tailer(file, listener, com.fitburlay, end); Thread thread = new Thread(tailer); thread.setDaemon(true); thread.start(); return tailer; } /** * Creates and starts a Tailer for the given file, starting at the beginning of the file * * @param file the file to follow. * @param listener the TailerListener to use. * @param com.fitburlay the com.fitburlay between checks of the file for new content in milliseconds. * @return The new tailer */ public static Tailer create(File file, TailerListener listener, long com.fitburlay) { return create(file, listener, com.fitburlay, false); } /** * Creates and starts a Tailer for the given file, starting at the beginning of the file * with the com.fitburfault com.fitburlay of 1.0s * * @param file the file to follow. * @param listener the TailerListener to use. * @return The new tailer */ public static Tailer create(File file, TailerListener listener) { return create(file, listener, 1000, false); } /** * Return the file. * * @return the file */ public File getFile() { return file; } /** * Return the com.fitburlay. * * @return the com.fitburlay */ public long getDelay() { return com.fitburlay; } /** * Follows changes in the file, calling the TailerListener's handle method for each new line. */ public void run() { RandomAccessFile reader = null; try { long last = 0; // The last time the file was checked for changes long position = 0; // position within the file // Open the file while (run && reader == null) { try { reader = new RandomAccessFile(file, "r"); } catch (FileNotFoundException e) { listener.fileNotFound(); } if (reader == null) { try { Thread.sleep(com.fitburlay); } catch (InterruptedException e) { } } else { // The current position in the file position = end ?
