问题
I've just started messing around with JLine to parse character input in console mode. It seems to work well, but I'm wondering:
Is there a nonblocking way in JLine to find out if characters are available? (i.e. like kbhit() in Windows.)
I suppose I could always wrap keyboard input in its own thread which then offers the keyboard characters in a thread-safe queue to the main thread, but that seems like it should be unnecessary.
EDIT: This is character-by-character parsing. I am not going to use a GUI. The usual InputStream I/O in Java in console mode requires you to hit the Enter key first (e.g. it's buffered input only). Please don't tell me character-by-character input in console mode is impossible in Java; it isn't. JLine does it using a portable interface with a platform-dependent implementation.
Edit update: I was able to hack together a helper class to do the blocking I/O in a worker thread (using JLine for the per-character I/O, warning: you have to parse Ctrl-C yourself!) & then communicate via a synchronized queue with an isempty() routine. For what I'm doing right now that's fine, but I would really like to know a Good Way To Do This In The Future.
回答1:
You seem to be on the right track.
I think the "right" way to do this is a worker thread that pours all the blocking I/O into a non-blocking queue. Hava a look at ConcurrentLinkedQueue from java.util.concurrent.
回答2:
You can't use a console to get non-blocking input without native libraries.
You'll have to write a Swing app and write a KeyListener
