The first handler listens some channel of messages and if there is an incoming message, it sets interval:
toggleFlagInterval = setInterval (-> toggleFlag), 500
Messages can be arbitrarily much, but I need to set only one interval.
Second handler reads the message and in it I want to remove the interval:
clearInterval toggleFlagInterval
I want to control that was always zero or one interval .
To do this, I need to find all set intervals.
How to find all set intervals using CoffeeScript?
I would be very grateful for your help.
Thanks to all.
That doesn't make sense. You cannot find all functions registered with setInterval, with or without CoffeeScript (that would be a JavaScript question, it has nothing to do with CoffeeScript). You just need to keep track of them yourself.
It seems like in this specific case, you simply need to choose to conditionally not set an interval, if one is already set.
To do so, your setting code would use ?=:
toggleFlagInterval ?= setInterval (-> toggleFlag), 500
And your clearing code would reset toggleFlagInterval to null:
clearInterval toggleFlagInterval
toggleFlagInterval = null
Alternatively, you need to cancel any already set interval at the point when you set a new one:
clearInterval(toggleFlagInterval) if toggleFlagInterval?
toggleFlagInterval = setInterval (-> toggleFlag), 500

The "Assembler" should stop working for 2 hours after 10 assemblies are done.
How can I achieve that?
There are so many ways to do this depending on what it means to stop working and what the implications are for the incoming parts.. but here's one option
create a resourcePool called Machine, this will be used along with the technicians:
on the "on exit" action of the assembler do this (I use 9 instead of 10 because the out.count() doesn't count until the agent is completely out, so when it counts 9, it means that you have produced 10)
if(self.out.count()==9){
machine.set_capacity(0);
create_MyDynamicEvent(2, HOUR);
}
In your dynamice event (that you have to create) you will add the following code:
machine.set_capacity(1);
A second option is to have a variable countAssembler count the number of items produced... then
on exit you write countAssembler++;
on enter delay you write the following:
if(countAssembler==10){
self.suspend(agent);
create_MyDynamicEvent(2, HOUR,agent);
}
on the dynamic event you write:
assembler.resume(agent);
Don't forget to add the parameter needed in the dynamic event:
Create a variable called countAssembler of type int. Increment this as agents pass through the assembler. Also create a variable called assemblerStopTime. You also record the assembler stop time with assemblerStopTime=time()
Place a selectOutputOut block before the and let them in if countAssembler value is less than 10. Otherwise send to a Wait block.
Now, to maintain the FIFO rule, in the first selectOutputOut condition, you need to check also if there is any agent in the wait block and if the current time - assemblerStopTime is greater than 2. If there is, you free it and send to the assembler with wait.free(0) function. And send the current agent to wait. You also need to reset the countAssembler to zero.
I am using a gen_server behaviour and trying to understand how can handle_info/2 be triggered from a timeout occurring in a handle_call for example:
-module(server).
-export([init/1,handle_call/3,handle_info/2,terminate/2).
-export([start/0,stop/0]).
init(Data)->
{ok,33}.
start()->
gen_server:start_link(?MODULE,?MODULE,[]).
stop(Pid)->
gen_server:stop(Pid).
handle_call(Request,From,State)->
Return={reply,State,State,5000},
Return.
handle_info(Request,State)->
{stop,Reason,State}.
terminate(Reason,State)->
{ok,S}=file:file_open("D:/Erlang/Supervisor/err.txt",[read,write]),
io:format(S,"~s~n",[Reason]),
ok.
What i want to do:
I was expecting that if I launch the server and would not use gen_server:call/2 for 5 seconds (in my case) then handle_info would be called, which would in turn issue the stop thus calling terminate.
I see it does not happen this way, in fact handle_info is not called at all.
In examples such as this i see the timeout is set in the return of init/1.What I can deduce is that it handle_info gets triggered only if I initialize the server and issue nothing (nor cast nor call for N seconds).If so why I can provide Timeout in the return of both handle_cast/2 and handle_call/3 ?
Update:
I was trying to get the following functionality:
If no call is issued in X seconds trigger handle_info/2
If no cast is issued in Y seconds trigger handle_info/2
I thought this timeouts can be set in the return of handle_call and handle_cast:
{reply,Reply,State,X} //for call
{noreply,State,Y} //for cast
If not, when are those timeouts triggered since they are returns?
To initiate timeout handling from gen_server:handle_call/3 callback, this callback has to be called in the first place. Your Return={reply,State,State,5000}, is not executed at all.
Instead, if you want to “launch the server and would not use gen_server:call/2 for 5 seconds then handle_info/2 would be called”, you might return {ok,State,Timeout} tuple from gen_server:init/1 callback.
init(Data)->
{ok,33,5000}.
You cannot set the different timeouts for different calls and casts. As stated by Alexey Romanov in comments,
Having different timeouts for different types of messages just isn’t something any gen_* behavior does and would have to be simulated by maintaining them inside state.
If one returns {reply,State,Timeout} tuple from any handle_call/3/handle_cast/2, the timeout will be triggered if the mailbox of this process is empty after Timeout.
i suggest you read source code:gen_server.erl
% gen_server.erl
% line 400
loop(Parent, Name, State, Mod, Time, HibernateAfterTimeout, Debug) ->
Msg = receive
Input ->
Input
after Time ->
timeout
end,
decode_msg(Msg, Parent, Name, State, Mod, Time, HibernateAfterTimeout, Debug, false).
it helps you to understand the parameter Timeout
What I'm up to is to get the jenkins job details and store it in mongo DB every "X" minutes. I have to make an HTTP.call(JenkinsURL) which I know how to do. My problem is calling it for specific intervals.
buildDetails=HTTP.call('GET',buildURL);
buildURL has the Jenkins job URL. I found this link which gives an overview of the code for my problem, but I don't know how and where i should place these code to get it working. I tried all possibility.
Is there any method in meteor which can make this possible to run a specific code to be run for every X min??
Is there any method in meteor which can make this possible to run a specific code to be run for every X min??
Yes, there is.
Meteor.setInterval that can be used to do something repetitively every X interval of time.
You can put your HTTP call within it on the server. Eg:
Meteor.startup({function(){
var timerID = Meteor.setInterval(function(){
buildDetails=HTTP.call('GET',buildURL);
// and other things
}, 60000) //60000ms = 1 min
}
});
When you want to stop the timer function, simply call Meteor.clearInterval
Meteor.clearInterval(timerID);
When the quickfix initiator reconnects at startTime (defined in config) it deletes the files with sequence number, but does not set ResetSeqNumFlag to Y, and the server replies with a Logout message with text "seq msg number to low ..."
Is there a way to set ResetSeqNumFlag = Y only for this behavior? I don`t want to reset the sequence on every log-on.
This appears to be a QuickFIX/J quirk (some might consider it a bug). If ResetOnLogon=N then no ResetSeqNumFlag=Y is sent when the session start time triggers a logon. If ResetOnLogon=Y, the ResetSeqNumFlag=Y is sent on every logon. I believe this is not a big problem in practice because participants in a FIX session typically reset their sequence numbers locally after a session ends (logically ends at the end time, not a connection disconnect).
If you want to slightly modify the source code to implement this behavior, you'd modify the quickfix.Session next() method. You could add a local flag that indicates a session has restarted (per the schedule as determined by checkSessionTime()). Pass that flag to generateLogon() and that method would use it to determine when to send ResetSeqNumFlag=Y regardless of the ResetOnLogon configuration.
I don`t want to reset the sequence on every log-on.
Then don't do it! Set ResetOnLogon=N.
At StartTime, the session will reset sequence numbers always. If ResetOnLogon=N, then they won't reset again until the next StartTime.
The initiator and acceptor should always have matching ResetOnXXX settings.
What you are asking cannot, should not be done. You start you engine with some config and then you change the config while running. If something goes wrong it will be very difficult to pinpoint what started the issue.
Instead of doing ResetSeqNumFlag = Y try adding ResetOnLogon=Y in your config for the acceptor side(that is if you have control over it) or ResetOnLogout=Y / ResetOnDisconnect=Y in your initiator config file. That would be much easier and changing config while running, is possibly not the best solution.
Your logout(disconnect can happen anytime) will happen anyways at EndTime anyways and should be easier for your application.
Guys help me to understand the timeouts usage. The documentation gives quite a couple of words about them:
popTimeout- Retrieves the previous timeout value from a stack, restores it as the current timeout value, and returns it.
pushTimeout - Stores the current timeout value on a stack and sets a new timeout value.
They also provide some code:
target = UIATarget.localTarget();
target.pushTimeout(2);
// attempt element access
target.popTimeout();
But I don't exactly understand how and when to use them. Can anybode give an example?
During automation testing, some elements might not become visible right away. so instruments uses a timeout (default 5 seconds) to wait for requested elements. They call this the grace period.
Sometimes the default grace period might not be what you need, so you can change the timeout to a shorter or longer value.
Using the pushTimeout and popTimeout makes sure that the previous grace period is restored after calling popTimeout, without the need to remember the previous grace period.
For example: in one of my tests, I don't want to wait for a popover to become active, but I just want to know if there is a popover active, and dismiss it if there is:
target.pushTimeout(0.0);
if ( target.isDeviceiPad() && ! isNull( popOver= app.mainWindow().popover() ) )
{
UIALogger.logDebug(" dismiss popup by tapping somewhere");
popOver.dismiss();
target.delay(0.2);
}
target.popTimeout();
BTW, the isNull() is a custom function I made, but you probably understand what is going on.
