/**
* 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, delay);
*
* 2.2 Using an Executor
*
*
* TailerListener listener = new MyTailerListener();
* Tailer tailer = new Tailer(file, listener, delay);
*
* // stupid executor impl. for demo purposes
* Executor executor = new Executor() {
* public void execute(Runnable command) {
* command.run();
* }
* };
*
* executor.execute(tailer);
*
*
*
* 2.3 Using a Thread
*
* TailerListener listener = new MyTailerListener();
* Tailer tailer = new Tailer(file, listener, delay);
* Thread thread = new Thread(tailer);
* thread.setDaemon(true); // optional
* thread.start();
*
* 3. Stopping a Tailer
* Remember to stop the tailer when you have done with it:
*
* tailer.stop();
*
*
* 4. Interrupting a Tailer
* You can interrupt the thread a tailer is running on by calling {@link Thread#interrupt()}.
*
* thread.interrupt();
*
* If you interrupt a tailer, the tailer listener is called with the {@link InterruptedException}.
*
* The file is read using the default charset; this can be overridden if necessary
* @see TailerListener
* @see TailerListenerAdapter
* @version $Id$
* @since 2.0
* @since 2.5 Updated behavior and documentation for {@link Thread#interrupt()}
