Event bus Subscribe method called multiple times - session

I'am new to Vaadin and java web applications in general.
I tried to use event bus from google, this is my setup
Event bus singleton class:
public class Bus {
protected static final EventBus eventBus = new EventBus(); //single instance
public static EventBus getBus() {
return eventBus;
}
}
Place where i post my event:
public class MainMenuElementMain extends HorizontalLayout {
Bus eventbus = new Bus();
public MainMenuElementMain(String sectionTitle) {
ClickedMainMenuElement event = new ClickedMainMenuElement(sectionTitle);
eventbus.getBus().post(event);
}
}
Place where i handle the event:
#Subscribe
public void menuElementClicked (ClickedMainMenuElement event) {
add.(someComponent);
}
Everything is O.K. up to the time when i post the event from other web browser, than i got one of those two errors:
IllegalStateException: Can't move a node from one state tree to another
or
IllegalStateException: Cannot access state in VaadinSession or UI without locking the session.
I did some debugging and it seems that each time I refresh the browser or open new tab, the new instance of #Subscribe is register into the Event buss. In conclusion when i post the event all of the #Subscribe methods, from different sessions are called, which cause the error that i mentioned above.
It seems that my eventBus is a singleton sheared through all the sessions, What would be the best approach to make one instance of Event Buss for one session ?

Why is Observable functionality getting executed twice for a single call?

Complete structure of the program
Annotation:
#Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
#Target(ElementType.METHOD)
public #interface UserAnnotation {
}
Then created a Interceptor:
public class UserInterceptor implements MethodInterceptor {
private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(UserInterceptor.class);
#Inject
UserService userService; // this is not working
public Object invoke(MethodInvocation invocation) throws Throwable {
logger.info("UserInterceptor : Interceptor Invoked");
Object result = invocation.proceed();
Observable<List<User>> observable = (Observable<List<Sample>>) result;
observable.flatMap(Observable::from).subscribe(object -> {
User user = (User)object
SampleSender sender = new SampleSender();
sender.setBoolean(user.isBoolean());
logger.info("Pushing Data into Sender");
userService.insert(String.join("_", "key", "value"), sender);
}
return result;
}
}
Then I created a GuiceModule as below:-
public class UserModule extends AbstractModule {
#Override
protected void configure() {
SampleInterceptor interceptor = new SampleInterceptor()
requestInjection(interceptor);
bindInterceptor(Matchers.any(), Matchers.annotatedWith(SampleAnnotation.class), interceptor);
}
}
Class in which I am using the above annotation is
// This class also have so many method and this was already declared and using in another services, I created a sample class here
class UserClassForInterceptor {
#Inject
AnotherClass anotherClass;
// this userMethod() is not a new method, its already created,
// now I am adding annotation to it, because after finishing this functionality,
// I want something should be done, so created annotation and added here
#UserAnnotation
public Observable<List<Sample>> userMethod() {
logger.info("This is printing only once");
return anotherClass.getUser().flatMap(user ->{
logger.info("This is also printing twice");
// this logger printed twise means, this code snippet is getting executed twise
});
}
}
public class AnotherClass{
public Observable<User> getUser(){
Observable<Sample> observableSample = methodReturnsObservableSample();
logger.info("Getting this logger only once");
return observableSample.map(response-> {
logger.info("This logger is printing twice");
//here have code to return observable of User
});
}
}
If I remove annotation loggers inside the observable are printing only one time but when I use annotation those loggers are getting printed twise. Why it is behaving like this I dont know.
I have a RestModule using which I am binding UserClassForInterceptor as follows
public final class RestModule extends JerseyServletModule {
// other classes binding
bind(UserClassForInterceptor.class).in(Scopes.SINGLETON);
// other classes binding
install(new SampleModule());
}
Now I have a bootsrap class in which I am binding RestModule
public class Bootstrap extends ServerBootstrap {
binder.install(new RestModule());
}
Usage:-
#Path("service/sample")
public class SampleRS {
#Inject
UserClassForInterceptor userClassForInterceptor;
public void someMethod() {
userClassForInterceptor.sampleMethod();
}
}
You created an annotation, #UserAnnotation, and an interceptor class to go with the annotation. You attach the annotation to a method, userMethod().
The first thing your interceptor routine does is invoke userMethod() to get the observable that it returns and then the interceptor subscribes to the returned observable, causing the first log messages to appear. Eventually, the interceptor returns the observable to the original caller. When something else subscribes to the returned observable, the observer chain is activated a second time, hence the log messages appear twice.
RxJava Has Side Effects
While RxJava is an implementation of the "functional reactive programming" concept, the observer chains that you construct (in a functional manner) only work when they are subscribed to, and those subscriptions have side effects. Logging output is one side effect, and probably the most benign; changes to variables or invocations of methods that have side effects have a wider impact.
When an observer chain is constructed (properly), it acts as a potential computation until there is a subscriber. If you need to have more than one subscriber, as you might for your problem domain, then you have to decide whether the observer chain needs to be activated for each subscription, the normal case, or only once for all overlapping subscriptions.
If you want all overlapping subscriptions to share the same observable, then you can use the share() operator. There are a number of related operators that affect the lifetime of observables and subscriptions. Here is an overview: How to use RxJava share() operator?
Aspect Oriented Programming: Interceptors And Guice
Your code is using Guice to provide a capability called "aspect oriented programming". This allows you to introduce code into your program to address cross-cutting concerns, or to enhance its functionality by setting up controlled gateways. Using Guice, or similar AOP approaches, requires discipline.
In your case, you used the interception process to cause unexplained (until now) side effects by subscribing to an observer chain that has non-trivial side effects. Imagine that the method you intercepted set up a one-time connection and that your interceptor used up that connection doing its work, leaving the original caller unable to use the connection.
The discipline you need is to understand the rules that the interceptor must follow. Think of rules such as "First, do no harm".
Doing Things The FRP Way
If you need to add an extra step when handling user information, then you should construct a new observable in your interceptor that does that, but only when the original caller subscribed to the observable:
Object result = invocation.proceed();
Observable<List<User>> observable = (Observable<List<Sample>>) result;
Observable<List<User>> newObservable = observable
.doOnNext( sampleList ->
Observable.fromIterable( sampleList )
.subscribe(object -> {
User user = (User)object
SampleSender sender = new SampleSender();
sender.setBoolean(user.isBoolean());
logger.info("Pushing Data into Sender");
userService.insert(String.join("_", "key", "value"), sender);
}));
return newObservable;
By returning a modified observer chain, you don't introduce side effects from the original observer chain, and ensure that the side effects you introduce in your own code will only be triggered when the original observer chain is subscribed to.
This code also helped me
public Object invoke(MethodInvocation invocation) throws Throwable {
Object result = null;
try{
logger.debug("Interceptor Invoked");
result = invocation.proceed();
Observable<List<User>> observable = (Observable<List<User>>)result;
return observable
.doOnNext(this::updateUser);
}
catch(Exception ex){
logger.error("Error: ",ex);
}
return result;
}
private void updateUser(List<User> users) {
if(CollectionUtils.isNotEmpty(users)) {
for(User user: users) {
SampleSender sender = new SampleSender();
sender.setBoolean(user.isBoolean());
logger.info("Pushing Data into Sender");
userService.insert(String.join("_", "key", "value"), sender);
}
}
}

Stomp over websocket using Spring and sockJS message lost

On the client side javascript I have
stomp.subscribe("/topic/path", function (message) {
console.info("message received");
});
And on the server side
public class Controller {
private final MessageSendingOperations<String> messagingTemplate;
@Autowired
public Controller(MessageSendingOperations<String> messagingTemplate) {
this.messagingTemplate = messagingTemplate;
}
#SubscribeMapping("/topic/path")
public void subscribe() {
LOGGER.info("before send");
messagingTemplate.convertAndSend(/topic/path, "msg");
}
}
From this setup, I am occasionally (around once in 30 page refreshes) experiencing message dropping, which means I can see neither "message received" msg on the client side nor the websocket traffic from Chrome debugging tool.
"before send" is always logged on the server side.
This looks like that the MessageSendingOperations is not ready when I call it in the subscribe() method. (if I put Thread.sleep(50); before calling messagingTemplate.convertAndSend the problem would disappear (or much less likely to be reproduced))
I wonder if anyone experienced the same before and if there is an event that can tell me MessageSendingOperations is ready or not.
The issue you are facing is laying in the nature of clientInboundChannel which is ExecutorSubscribableChannel by default.
It has 3 subscribers:
0 = {SimpleBrokerMessageHandler#5276} "SimpleBroker[DefaultSubscriptionRegistry[cache[0 destination(s)], registry[0 sessions]]]"
1 = {UserDestinationMessageHandler#5277} "UserDestinationMessageHandler[DefaultUserDestinationResolver[prefix=/user/]]"
2 = {SimpAnnotationMethodMessageHandler#5278} "SimpAnnotationMethodMessageHandler[prefixes=[/app/]]"
which are invoked within taskExecutor, hence asynchronously.
The first one here (SimpleBrokerMessageHandler (or StompBrokerRelayMessageHandler) if you use broker-relay) is responsible to register subscription for the topic.
Your messagingTemplate.convertAndSend(/topic/path, "msg") operation may be performed before the subscription registration for that WebSocket session, because they are performed in the separate threads. Hence the Broker handler doesn't know you to send the message to the session.
The #SubscribeMapping can be configured on method with return, where the result of this method will be sent as a reply to that subscription function on the client.
HTH
Here is my solution. It is along the same lines. Added a ExecutorChannelInterceptor and published a custom SubscriptionSubscribedEvent. The key is to publish the event after the message has been handled by AbstractBrokerMessageHandler which means the subscription has been registered with the broker.
#Override
public void configureClientInboundChannel(ChannelRegistration registration) {
registration.interceptors(new ExecutorChannelInterceptorAdapter() {
#Override
public void afterMessageHandled(Message<?> message, MessageChannel channel, MessageHandler handler, Exception ex) {
SimpMessageHeaderAccessor accessor = SimpMessageHeaderAccessor.wrap(message);
if (accessor.getMessageType() == SimpMessageType.SUBSCRIBE && handler instanceof AbstractBrokerMessageHandler) {
/*
* Publish a new session subscribed event AFTER the client
* has been subscribed to the broker. Before spring was
* publishing the event after receiving the message but not
* necessarily after the subscription occurred. There was a
* race condition because the subscription was being done on
* a separate thread.
*/
applicationEventPublisher.publishEvent(new SessionSubscribedEvent(this, message));
}
}
});
}
A little late but I thought I'd add my solution. I was having the same problem with the subscription not being registered before I was sending data through the messaging template. This issue happened rarely and unpredictable because of the race with the DefaultSubscriptionRegistry.
Unfortunately, I could not just use the return method of the #SubscriptionMapping because we were using a custom object mapper that changed dynamically based on the type of user (attribute filtering essentially).
I searched through the Spring code and found SubscriptionMethodReturnValueHandler was responsible for sending the return value of subscription mappings and had a different messagingTemplate than the autowired SimpMessagingTemplate of my async controller!!
So the solution was autowiring MessageChannel clientOutboundChannel into my async controller and using that to create a SimpMessagingTemplate. (You can't directly wire it in because you'll just get the template going to the broker).
In subscription methods, I then used the direct template while in other methods I used the template that went to the broker.

Apache Wicket: React on Ajax Request Before Model is Updated

I have a number of Wicket components on a page that use a PropertyModel to reflect properties of some beans. Using AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehaviors, these components are automatically updated via Ajax when the user changes them.
When properties are changed, the beans I want to edit with my components fire PropertyChangeEvents that should trigger re-renders of certain components that listen to these events (implementing PropertyChangeListener):
Example:
User edits a TextField with a PropertyModel and an AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior
An AJAX request is sent
Wicket dispatches the request to the AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior
The behavior's onEvent updates the PropertyModel (unfortunately, this method is final)
The PropertyModel calls the backing bean's property setter
The backing bean fires and PropertyChangeEvent
Now I want all components listening for changes of the same backing bean to be notified
The behavior calls the abstract onUpdate, but now it's to late, the property change events are already handled.
Since my beans are not serializable, I cannot register the components permanently as event listeners. I either need to register proxy objects that somehow retrieve the component to notify, or register my components temporarily for the scope of the AJAX request.
What I would like to do is to hook into Wickets request cycle after the target page has been loaded but before the Ajax behavior updates the model, that would lead to the PropertyChangeEvent. Here I can register every component as a event listener on their backing beans (addPropertyChangeListener) so that they are notified if they need to be updated.
Then, in onEvent, each component can take measures to update itself using the AjaxRequestTarget if they received a PropertyChangeEvent before.
Finally, in onDetach, the components can unregister from their beans (removePropertyChangeListener).
Unfortunately, I found no built-in way to get a notification "on Ajax request". In my Ajax behavior's onUpdate methods, the model has already been updated and it is too late to register change listeners. I could implement my own behavior, but with the different component options (text fields, choice lists, etc.), this is quite an effort.
Did I miss something?
I don't quite understand exactly what you mean by "components registering as event listeners". Are you talking about registering IRequestCycleListeners?
Either way, perhaps Wicket's inter-component events can help you here. Every component implements the following interface:
public interface IEventSink
{
/**
* Called when an event is sent to this sink
*
* #param event
*/
void onEvent(IEvent<?> event);
}
You could subclass AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior to fire an event after a model is updated like so:
public class AjaxUpdateEvent {
private final AjaxRequestTarget target;
public AjaxUpdateEvent(AjaxRequestTarget target) {
this.target = target;
}
public AjaxRequestTarget getAjaxRequestTarget() {
return target;
}
}
public class BeanModifiedEvent extends AjaxUpdateEvent {
private final Bean bean;
public BeanModifiedEvent(AjaxRequestTarget target, Bean theBean) {
super(target);
}
public Bean getBean() {
return bean;
}
}
public class CustomUpdatingBehavior extends AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior {
protected abstract void onUpdate(AjaxRequestTarget target) {
Bean bean = getFormComponent().getModelObject();
getComponent().send(getComponent().getPage(), Broadcast.BREADTH, new BeanModifiedEvent(target, bean));
}
}
You can then catch the event in the required components and add them to the ajax request:
public class UserDetailsPanel extends Panel {
.....
#Override
public void onEvent(IEvent event) {
if(event.getPayload() instanceof BeanModifiedEvent) {
// if(whatever) to control whether to add or not
AjaxRequestTarget target = ((BeanModifiedEvent) event.getPayload()).getAjaxRequestTarget();
target.add(...);
}
}
Event doc:
17.2, "Wicket events infrastructure" section
18.3, "Built-in AJAX behaviors" section
You can override #getUpdateModel() to return false, then in #onUpdate() do whatever you want before calling getFormComponent().updateModel().
You could be overriding onModelChanging of each component you are using and firing your PropertyChangeEvent there. According to the documentation onModelChanging is called before
the model is changed.
#Override
protected void onModelChanging() {
super.onModelChanging();
oldModelObject = yourComponent.getModelObject();
//fire PropertyChangeEvent
}
This is what I came up with in the end.
I subclassed IContextProvider<AjaxRequestTarget, Page> to create a custom provider for AjaxRequestTarget objects. When an AjaxRequestTarget is requested, I broadcast it to the component tree using Wicket's event mechanism.
public class BroadcastingAjaxRequestTargetProvider implements IContextProvider<AjaxRequestTarget, Page> {
private final IContextProvider<AjaxRequestTarget, Page> parent;
public BroadcastingAjaxRequestTargetProvider(IContextProvider<AjaxRequestTarget, Page> parent) {
this.parent = parent;
}
#Override
public AjaxRequestTarget get(Page page) {
AjaxRequestTarget target = parent.get(page);
page.send(page, Broadcast.BREADTH, new AjaxRequestBegin(target));
return target;
}
}
The class AjaxRequestBegin is just a small payload object encapsulating the AjaxRequestTarget.
I register this provider in my Wicket application's init() method:
setAjaxRequestTargetProvider(new BroadcastingAjaxRequestTargetProvider(getAjaxRequestTargetProvider()));
Now each component gets notified when an AJAX request is handled, before Wicket dispatches it to a component or behavior. A component can override onEvent to register a PropertyChangeListener for the request:
public void onEvent(IEvent<?> event) {
final Object payload = event.getPayload();
if (payload instanceof AjaxRequestBegin) {
final AjaxRequestTarget target = ((AjaxRequestBegin) payload).getTarget()
AjaxPropertyChangeListener listener = new AjaxPropertyChangeListener(target);
target.addListener(listener);
getBean().addPropertyChangeListener(listener);
}
}
private class AjaxPropertyChangeListener implements PropertyChangeListener, AjaxRequestTarget.IListener {
private final AjaxRequestTarget target;
public AjaxPropertyChangeListener(AjaxRequestTarget target) {
this.target = target;
}
#Override
public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent event) {
target.add(MyComponent.this);
}
#Override
public void onBeforeRespond(Map<String, Component> map, AjaxRequestTarget target) {
}
#Override
public void onAfterRespond(Map<String, Component> map, IJavaScriptResponse response) {
getBean().removePropertyChangeListener(this);
}
}
Note that AjaxPropertyChangeListener also implements AjaxRequestTarget.IListener to unregister itself after the AJAX request has been completed.

GwtEvent does not get dispatched

I have an application that uses EventBus for dispatching Application wide events. For some reason if I call one event and then try to register handler immediately before firing the second event it does not get dispatched. Is there any other way to dynamically register handlers on event ? Please see the code below:
MyEntry.java
package com.example.eventbus.client;
import com.google.gwt.core.client.EntryPoint;
import com.google.gwt.event.shared.SimpleEventBus;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.Label;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.RootPanel;
public class MyEntry
implements EntryPoint {
SimpleEventBus bus;
#Override
public void onModuleLoad() {
bus = new SimpleEventBus();
fireEvent1();
}
private void fireEvent1(){
bus.addHandler(MyEvent1.TYPE,new MyEvent1.Handler() {
#Override
public void onEvent1(MyEvent1 event) {
RootPanel.get().add(new Label("Event1"));
fireEvent2();
}
});
bus.fireEvent(new MyEvent1());
}
private void fireEvent2(){
bus.addHandler(MyEvent2.TYPE,new MyEvent2.Handler() {
#Override
public void onEvent2(MyEvent2 event) {
RootPanel.get().add(new Label("Event2")); //!!!!!This line is not being called
}
});
bus.fireEvent(new MyEvent2());
}
}
MyEvent1.java
package com.example.eventbus.client;
import com.google.gwt.event.shared.EventHandler;
import com.google.gwt.event.shared.GwtEvent;
public class MyEvent1 extends GwtEvent<MyEvent1.Handler>{
public static Type<MyEvent1.Handler> TYPE=new Type<MyEvent1.Handler>();
#Override
public com.google.gwt.event.shared.GwtEvent.Type<Handler> getAssociatedType() {
return TYPE;
}
#Override
protected void dispatch(Handler handler) {
System.out.println("dispatch Event1");
handler.onEvent1(this);
}
public interface Handler extends EventHandler{
public void onEvent1(MyEvent1 event);
}
}
MyEvent2.java
package com.example.eventbus.client;
import com.google.gwt.event.shared.EventHandler;
import com.google.gwt.event.shared.GwtEvent;
public class MyEvent2 extends GwtEvent<MyEvent2.Handler>{
public static Type<MyEvent2.Handler> TYPE=new Type<MyEvent2.Handler>();
#Override
public com.google.gwt.event.shared.GwtEvent.Type<Handler> getAssociatedType() {
return TYPE;
}
#Override
protected void dispatch(Handler handler) {
System.out.println("dispatch Event2"); //!!!! This line is never called
handler.onEvent2(this);
}
public interface Handler extends EventHandler{
public void onEvent2(MyEvent2 event);
}
}
The issue is that while an event bus is firing events, it queues up any added or removed handler, and deals with them when it is finished. The idea is that if you only start listening to something while another event is still going off, then you are not interested for this round of events, but for the next round. The same thing happens when removing a handler - you will still hear about events that are still in the process of happening, but after the event bus is finished firing, it will deal with removal.
Try changing your code to wire up both handlers before firing anything, then try firing one event to the other.
Let me suggest to take a try to a new feature in gwtquery called 'custom events'.
We have introduced the new events mechanism during the recent GWT.create conferences, take a look to this slide (use arrows to move between slides).
You can attach custom events to any element in the DOM tree, widgets, and the window element.
Then you can trigger the event from any point in your code and every handler with this custom event name will be executed.
The main goal of the gQuery approach apart from being simpler, is that it performs significantly better than gwt eventbus, since the native browser selects in a low-level way which handlers to execute instead of using javascript to loop over a list, and execute handlers sequentially.
You might want to check out GWTP #ProxyEvent:
So when should you use #ProxyEvent? Basically, you use it every time that an event should have the ability to “wake up” your presenter. That is, whenever the presenter should be notified of an event even before it is first instantiated.

Why EventBus need ThreadLocal for the EventWithHandler

im getting confused that why eventbus need threadlocal here?
/** queues of events for the current thread to dispatch */
private final ThreadLocal<Queue<EventWithHandler>> eventsToDispatch =
new ThreadLocal<Queue<EventWithHandler>>() {
#Override protected Queue<EventWithHandler> initialValue() {
return new LinkedList<EventWithHandler>();
}
};
JUST FOR AsycEventBus to override the method enqueueEvent and dispatchQueuedEvents ??
It's used to handle reentrant posting of events--for example, if one event subscriber posts one or more other events, they'll go in to the queue. Then those events can be posted to their subscribers after the event bus finishes handling the current event.
