Eclipse call hierarchy lambda - eclipse

I think 5 years has passed since Lambda has been released for Java.
public static void main(String[] args) {
go();
}
private static void go() {
Set<String> set = new HashSet<>();
set.stream().forEach((s) -> {
inner(s);
});
}
private static void inner(String s) {
inner1(s);
}
private static void inner1(String s) {
}
When I press CTRL-ALT-H - (open call hierarchy) on inner1 method, I expect to see a whole stack trace from in inner1 to main method. Instead, my staktrace is trimmed on inner method. I've just downloaded the newest Eclipse, I think it 2018-12, previously I was using Mars.
Intellij can show me the expected call-hierarchy, and I don't really understand why Eclipse still can't do it. Not sure if anyone else is using Eclipse in 2019, but maybe you can advise a plugin or something.
Switching to Intellij is not an option, I tried couple of times, but the habit is hard to overcome.
UPDATE
There is similar - SO question
At run time, evaluation of a lambda expression is similar to
evaluation of a class instance creation expression, insofar as normal
completion produces a reference to an object. Evaluation of a lambda
expression is distinct from execution of the lambda body.
and
Just note, that for lambdas implementing library types like
Consumer, the number of callers into accept(T) in a workspace may
easily become unmanageable, similar to any call hierarchy through,
e.g, Runnable.run() - but that doesn't question the general usefulness
of call hierarchies through lambdas.
I don't really care about lambda internals, somehow other IDE is able to show expected stacktrace

There's an existing old bug for eclipse, reported in 2016, still in NEW status
Bug 498498 - [1.8][search][call hierarchy] No usage for lambdas
Call hierarchy on bar method correctly shows usage in accept, and for accept there is no usage shown.
This issue was already present in mars.
There are 3 votes to fix it, you can vote too
From your edit's links there's another relevant old bug in NEW status
Bug 468561 - [search]Call Hierarchy stops searching in doubly-nested lambda chain
with 3 votes too...

Eclipse 4.22 (Q4 2021) should help:
Improved lambda support in the Call Hierarchy view
The Call Hierarchy view is enhanced with showing not only the callers of the lambda function, but the callers of the declaring function too.
For the following code:
Checking the callers of the function() will show this:
The [declaration] node in the tree is the new addition, which shows the callers of the definer() function, in this case, only the main() function.

GWT / JSNI - "DataCloneError - An object could not be cloned" - how do I debug?

I am attempting to call out to parallels.js via JSNI. Parallels provides a nice API around web workers, and I wrote some lightweight wrapper code which provides a more convenient interface to workers from GWT than Elemental. However I'm getting an error which has me stumped:
com.google.gwt.core.client.JavaScriptException: (DataCloneError) #io.mywrapper.workers.Parallel::runParallel([Ljava/lang/String;Lcom/google/gwt/core/client/JavaScriptObject;Lcom/google/gwt/core/client/JavaScriptObject;)([Java object: [Ljava.lang.String;#1922352522, JavaScript object(3006), JavaScript object(3008)]): An object could not be cloned.
This comes from, in hosted mode:
at com.google.gwt.dev.shell.BrowserChannelServer.invokeJavascript(BrowserChannelServer.java:249) at com.google.gwt.dev.shell.ModuleSpaceOOPHM.doInvoke(ModuleSpaceOOPHM.java:136) at com.google.gwt.dev.shell.ModuleSpace.invokeNative(ModuleSpace.java:571) at com.google.gwt.dev.shell.ModuleSpace.invokeNativeVoid(ModuleSpace.java:299) at com.google.gwt.dev.shell.JavaScriptHost.invokeNativeVoid(JavaScriptHost.java:107) at io.mywrapper.workers.Parallel.runParallel(Parallel.java)
Here's my code:
Example client call to create a worker:
Workers.spawnWorker(new String[]{"hello"}, new Worker() {
#Override
public String[] work(String[] data) {
return data;
}
#Override
public void done(String[] data) {
int i = data.length;
}
});
The API that provides a general interface:
public class Workers {
public static void spawnWorker(String[] data, Worker worker) {
Parallel.runParallel(data, workFunction(worker), callbackFunction(worker));
}
/**
* Create a reference to the work function.
*/
public static native JavaScriptObject workFunction(Worker worker) /*-{
return worker == null ? null : $entry(function(x) {
worker.#io.mywrapper.workers.Worker::work([Ljava/lang/String;)(x);
});
}-*/;
/**
* Create a reference to the done function.
*/
public static native JavaScriptObject callbackFunction(Worker worker) /*-{
return worker == null ? null : $entry(function(x) {
worker.#io.mywrapper.workers.Worker::done([Ljava/lang/String;)(x);
});
}-*/;
}
Worker:
public interface Worker extends Serializable {
/**
* Called to perform the work.
* #param data
* #return
*/
public String[] work(String[] data);
/**
* Called with the result of the work.
* #param data
*/
public void done(String[] data);
}
And finally the Parallels wrapper:
public class Parallel {
/**
* #param data Data to be passed to the function
* #param work Function to perform the work, given the data
* #param callback Function to be called with result
* #return
*/
public static native void runParallel(String[] data, JavaScriptObject work, JavaScriptObject callback) /*-{
var p = new $wnd.Parallel(data);
p.spawn(work).then(callback);
}-*/;
}
What's causing this?
The JSNI docs say, regarding arrays:
opaque value that can only be passed back into Java code
This is quite terse, but ultimately my arrays are passed back into Java code, so I assume these are OK.
EDIT - ok, bad assumption. The arrays, despite only ostensibly being passed back to Java code, are causing the error (which is strange, because there's very little googleability on DataCloneError.) Changing them to String works; however, String isn't sufficient for my needs here. Looks like objects face the same kinds of issues as arrays do; I saw Thomas' reference to JSArrayUtils in another StackOverflow thread, but I can't figure out how to call it with an array of strings (it wants an array of JavaScriptObjects as input for non-primitive types, which does me no good.) Is there a neat way out of this?
EDIT 2 - Changed to use JSArrayString wherever I was using String[]. New issue; no stacktrace this time, but in the console I get the error: Uncaught ReferenceError: __gwt_makeJavaInvoke is not defined. When I click on the url to the generated script in developer tools, I get this snippet:
self.onmessage = function(e) {self.postMessage((function (){
try {
return __gwt_makeJavaInvoke(3)(null, 65626, jsFunction, this, arguments);
}
catch (e) {
throw e;
}
})(e.data))}
I see that _gwt_makeJavaInvoke is part of the JSNI class; so why would it not be found?
You can find working example of GWT and WebWorkers here: https://github.com/tomekziel/gwtwwlinker/
This is a preliminary work, but using this pattern I was able to pass GWT objects to and from webworker using serialization provided by AutoBeanFactory.
If you never use dev mode it is currently safe to pretend that a Java String[] is a JS array with strings in it. This will break in dev mode since arrays have to be usable in Java and Strings are treated specially, and may break in the future if the compiler optimizes arrays differently.
Cases where this could go wrong in the future:
The semantics of Java arrays and JavaScript arrays are different - Java arrays cannot be resized, and are initialized with specific values based on the component type (the data in the array). Since you are writing Java code, the compiler could conceivable make assumptions based on details about how you create and use that array that could be broken by JS code that doesn't know to never modify the array.
Some arrays of primitive types could be optimized into TypedArrays in JavaScript, more closely following Java semantics in terms of resizing and Java behavior in terms of allocation. This would be a performance boost as well, but could break any use of int[], double[], etc.
Instead, you should copy your data into a JsArrayString, or just use the js array to hold the data rather than going back and forth, depending on your use case. The various JsArray types can be resized and already exist as JavaScript objects that outside JS can understand and work with.
Reply to EDIT 2:
At a guess, the parallel.js script is trying to run your code from another scope such a in the webworker (that's the point of the code, right) where your GWT code isn't present. As such, it can't call the makeJavaInvoke which is the bridge back into dev mode (would be a different failure with compiled JS). According to http://adambom.github.io/parallel.js/ there are specific requirements that a passed callback must meet to be passed in to spawn and perhaps then - your anonymous functions definitely do not meet them, and it may not be possible to maintain java semantics.
Before I get much deeper, check out this answer I did a while ago addressing the basic issues with webworkers and gwt/java: https://stackoverflow.com/a/11376059/860630
As noted there, WebWorkers are effectively new processes, with no shared code or shared state with the original process. The Parallel.js code attempts to paper over this with a little bit of trickery - shared state is only available in the form of the contents passed in to the original Parallel constructor, but you are attempting to pass in instances of 'java' objects and calling methods on them. Those Java instances come with their own state, and potentially can link back to the rest of the Java app by fields in the Worker instance. If I were implementing Worker and doing something that referenced other data than what was passed in, then I would be seeing further bizarre failures.
So the functions you pass in must be completely standalone - they must not refer to external code in any way, since then the function can't be passed off to the webworker, or to several webworkers, each unaware of each other's existence. See https://github.com/adambom/parallel.js/issues/32 for example:
That's not possible since it would
require a shared state across workers
require us to transmit all scope variables (I don't think there's even a possibility to read the available scopes)
The only thing which might be possible would be cache variables, but these can already be defined in the function itself with spawn() and don't make any sense in map (because there's no shared state).
Without being actually familiar with how parallel.js is implemented (all of this answer so far is reading the docs and a quick google search for "parallel.js shared state", plus having experiemented with WebWorkers for a day or so and deciding that my present problem wasn't yet worth the bother), I would guess that then is unrestricted, and you can you pass it whatever you like, but spawn, map, and reduce must be written in such a way that their JS can be passed off to the new JS process and completely stand alone there.
This may be possible from your normal Java code when compiled, provided you have just one implementation of Worker and that impl never uses state other than what is directly passed in. In that case the compiler should rewrite your methods to be static so that they are safe to use in this context. However, that doesn't make for a very useful library, as it seems you are trying to achieve. With that in mind, you could keep your worker code in JSNI to ensure that you follow the parallel.js rules.
Finally, and against the normal GWT rules, avoid $entry for calls you expect to happen in other contexts, since those workers have no access to the normal exception handling and scheduling that $entry enables.
(and finally finally, this is probably still possible if you are very careful at writing Worker implementations and write a Generator that invokes each worker implementation in very specific ways to make sure that com.google.gwt.dev.jjs.impl.MakeCallsStatic and com.google.gwt.dev.jjs.impl.Pruner can correctly act to knock out the this in those instance methods once they've been rewritten as JS functions. I think the cleanest way to do this is to emit the JSNI in the generator itself, call a static method written in real Java, and from that static method call the specific instance method that does the heavy lifting for spawn, etc.)

Testing GWTP presenter with asynchronous calls

I'm using GWTP, adding a Contract layer to abstract the knowledge between Presenter and View, and I'm pretty satisfied of the result with GWTP.
I'm testing my presenters with Mockito.
But as time passed, I found it was hard to maintain a clean presenter with its tests.
There are some refactoring stuff I did to improve that, but I was still not satisfied.
I found the following to be the heart of the matter :
My presenters need often asynchronous call, or generally call to objects method with a callback to continue my presenter flow (they are usually nested).
For example :
this.populationManager.populate(new PopulationCallback()
{
public void onPopulate()
{
doSomeStufWithTheView(populationManager.get());
}
});
In my tests, I ended to verify the population() call of the mocked PopulationManager object. Then to create another test on the doSomeStufWithTheView() method.
But I discovered rather quickly that it was bad design : any change or refactoring ended to broke a lot of my tests, and forced me to create from start others, even though the presenter functionality did not change !
Plus I didn't test if the callback was effectively what I wanted.
So I tried to use mockito doAnswer method to do not break my presenter testing flow :
doAnswer(new Answer(){
public Object answer(InvocationOnMock invocation) throws Throwable
{
Object[] args = invocation.getArguments();
((PopulationCallback)args[0]).onPopulate();
return null;
}
}).when(this.populationManager).populate(any(PopulationCallback.class));
I factored the code for it to be less verbose (and internally less dependant to the arg position) :
doAnswer(new PopulationCallbackAnswer())
.when(this.populationManager).populate(any(PopulationCallback.class));
So while mocking the populationManager, I could still test the flow of my presenter, basically like that :
#Test
public void testSomeStuffAppends()
{
// Given
doAnswer(new PopulationCallbackAnswer())
.when(this.populationManager).populate(any(PopulationCallback.class));
// When
this.myPresenter.onReset();
// Then
verify(populationManager).populate(any(PopulationCallback.class)); // That was before
verify(this.myView).displaySomething(); // Now I can do that.
}
I am wondering if it is a good use of the doAnswer method, or if it is a code smell, and a better design can be used ?
Usually, my presenters tend to just use others object (like some Mediator Pattern) and interact with the view. I have some presenter with several hundred (~400) lines of code.
Again, is it a proof of bad design, or is it normal for a presenter to be verbose (because its using others objects) ?
Does anyone heard of some project which uses GWTP and tests its presenter cleanly ?
I hope I explained in a comprehensive way.
Thank you in advance.
PS : I'm pretty new to Stack Overflow, plus my English is still lacking, if my question needs something to be improved, please tell me.
You could use ArgumentCaptor:

If I understood correctly you are asking about design/architecture.
This is shouldn't be counted as answer, it's just my thoughts.
If I have followed code:
public void loadEmoticonPacks() {
executor.execute(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
pack = loadFromServer();
savePackForUsageAfter();
}
});
}
I usually don't count on executor and just check that methods does concrete job by loading and saving. So the executor here is just instrument to prevent long operations in the UI thread.
If I have something like:
accountManager.setListener(this);
....
public void onAccountEvent(AccountEvent event) {
....
}
I will check first that we subscribed for events (and unsubscribed on some destroying) as well I would check that onAccountEvent does expected scenarios.
UPD1. Probably, in example 1, better would be extract method loadFromServerAndSave and check that it's not executed on UI thread as well check that it does everything as expected.
UPD2. It's better to use framework like Guava Bus for events processing.
We are using this doAnswer pattern in our presenter tests as well and usually it works just fine. One caveat though: If you test it like this you are effectively removing the asynchronous nature of the call, that is the callback is executed immediately after the server call is initiated.
This can lead to undiscovered race conditions. To check for those, you could make this a two-step process: when calling the server,the answer method only saves the callback. Then, when it is appropriate in your test, you call sometinh like flush() or onSuccess() on your answer (I would suggest making a utility class for this that can be reused in other circumstances), so that you can control when the callback for the result is really called.

GWT Deferred binding failed for custom class: No class matching "..." in urn:import:

I am developing a couple of custom widgets that I would like to be able to use with UiBinder. Unfortunately I keep wasting my life away with chasing down the following error:
No class matching "..." in urn:import:...
This seems to be the catch-all exception that is thrown any time there is any error in the class that prevents the GWT compiler from processing it. This includes anything in the class's entire dependency tree.
To save myself and anyone of you who is running into the same issue some time and pain, let's compile a list here of the most unexpected and hard to find causes for this. I'll start with my latest one, which has made me decide to post this here.
I was using a CellList thusly:
private static RelationshipViewerUiBinder uiBinder = GWT.create(RelationshipViewerUiBinder.class);
#UiField(provided=true)
CellList<String> prioritisedDisplay;
public RelationshipViewer() {
prioritisedDisplay = new CellList<>(new TextCell());
initWidget(uiBinder.createAndBindUi(this));
}
note the Java 7 style <> on the CellList. Despite my IDE's protestations to the contrary, it turns out you DO need to explicitly say CellList< String> in that new call, or it wont compile and all you get is the above mentioned error. Thanks by the way, the existance of this question prompted me to scrutinise my code and probably saved me a couple of hours! This fixed it:
private static RelationshipViewerUiBinder uiBinder = GWT.create(RelationshipViewerUiBinder.class);
#UiField(provided=true)
CellList<String> prioritisedDisplay;
public RelationshipViewer() {
prioritisedDisplay = new CellList<String>(new TextCell());
initWidget(uiBinder.createAndBindUi(this));
}
I had written a component that used the GWT JSON functionality, but hadn't imported com.google.gwt.json.JSON into the module.
Thanks to your message here, this was only 2 hours down the drain...
I wrote a helper-class that this widget uses somewhere deep inside its dependency tree.
For this helper-class, I told Eclipse to auto-generate the hashCode() and equals(...) functions. The class contained a field of type double, for which Eclipse generates code that uses Double.doubleToLongBits().
Turns out GWT does not implement this method on its version of Double. But of course, neither does Eclipse detect this as a possible compile-error, nor does it cause any issues in Dev Mode if I use the widget inside the GWT-App's Java code rather than inside UiBinder.
3 hours down the drain... Great... Yay for helpful error messages.
UPDATE:
As of GWT 2.5.0 (RC1) GWT now supports Double.doubleToLongBits() rendering this particular error obsolete, but the general error mechanism of a missing JRE emulation remains and will probably manifest itself in a similarly unhelpful way.
I was trying to use a GwtQuery DragAndDropCellTree in a UiBinder .ui.xml, which was impossible as DragAndDropCellTree has no zero-arg constructor.

How do I debug generic methods in Eclipse?

I'm in a generic method, debugging, but i get no information about variables, can't execute statements using ctrl-shift-i, eclipse tells the that the method ... isn't available on the type T.
I can't believe it's meant to (not) work like this ...
[edit]
I'm using the eclipse that's part of RAD 7.5.4
[another edit]
Here's some code but I doubt you'll get any info from this
public abstract class GenericGroupController<T extends Group> {
...
public String addUser(final Model model, final Long id, final WebRequest request) {
T group = groupManager.loadGroup(id);
...
// this method will fail if i highlight and click ctr-shift-i
// but it will work otherwise (actually so will the method above
// because that's generic as well)
Long groupId = group.getId();
...
return getAddUserView();
}
}
If you are able to debug, as in see a stack trace, you can always see the variables in the variables window if not in the code. A lot of places where the code isn't available you can do the same. It isn't nice, but, it gets the job done.

Prism 4.0 : Overriding InitializeShell() Method

I've been going through the documentation for creating Prism applications and setting up the Shell seems to be split into 2 methods, CreateShell() and InitializeShell()
For CreateShell I simply have:
protected override DependencyObject CreateShell()
{
return ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<Shell>();
}
The documentation says that code is needed in the IntializeShell() method to ensure it is ready to be displayed. The following is given as an example:
protected override void InitializeShell()
{
Application.Current.MainWindow = (Window)this.Shell;
Application.Current.MainWindow.Show();
}
I have noticed however that if I omit the first line and just call the Show() method it seems to work (MainWindow already appears to have Shell assigned to it). Can you tell me why this is the case, and why we still need to explicity set the MainWindow property here?
Also as I did not specifically register Shell to an interface within the container, how is it able to resolve Shell in CreateShell()?
Question 1: Why does just calling Show() seem to work and why is Application.Current.MainWindow seem to be populated?
There are a few things you should check here. In a typical WPF application, the type for the main window can be specified in the App.xaml. If it is specified, WPF will instantiate one of those for you. This is not desirable because WPF won't use your container to instantiate your shell and any dependencies won't be resolved.
When you run that first line of code in InitializeShell, you'd be replacing the WPF-instantiated Shell object with the one you manually instantiated.
I looked at the code for the MEF and Unity bootstrappers and I don't see anywhere that MainWindow is being set, but I don't know if you might have customized the base bootstrappers, so that's something else to look for.
Show() works because you are simply showing the window you instantiated and the WPF-instantiated one isn't shown. This is my theory, but without seeing your code, it'd be tough to say for sure.
Question 2: How can Unity resolve something that hasn't been registered?
Unity can always resolve a concrete type, regardless of registration. It cannot resolve non-concrete classes that haven't been mapped to a concrete type. This is why Resolve<Shell> works, but Resolve<IMyInterface> doesn't unless you register a type.
