Package protocols.membership.full.timers

Class SampleTimer

java.lang.Object

pt.unl.fct.di.novasys.babel.generic.ProtoTimer

protocols.membership.full.timers.SampleTimer

All Implemented Interfaces:

Cloneable

public class SampleTimer
extends pt.unl.fct.di.novasys.babel.generic.ProtoTimer

Fires periodically to make the membership protocol gossip a sample of its neighbours (see GossipBasedFullMembership.uponSampleTimer). Set up with setupPeriodicTimer(...).

This timer carries no data, so clone() returns this rather than allocating a fresh object on every fire — the Babel convention for stateless timers.
