Sample Usage

Logging and Properties Files

The structure of the properties files remains unchanged even after updating using any of the set methods. The comments remains intact too.

public class AppBase extends NeemClazz {

   public void setTargetPropertyFilename(){
      this.targetPropertiesFilename = "app.properties";
   }
}

public class App extends AppBase {
  public void doSth(){
    Integer myKey = appProps.getInt("my-key",-1); // key, defaultValue
    logger.debug("my-key: " + myKey); //logger is auto loaded since the parent extends NeemClazz
    appProps.set("my-key", "20", "Some comments");
    myKey = appProps.getInt("my-key",-1);
    logger.debug("my-key: " + myKey);
    ...
  }
}

Loop Process

public class Looper extends LoopProcess {
  
  public void process(){
      // do your work here
  }
  
  public static main(String[] args){
    AsyncFactory.spawnRunnable(new Looper(), "loop-process");
    // above is short for
    Thread t = new Thread(new Looper());
    t.setName("loop-process");
    t.start();
  }
}
