In industrial automation systems, certain tasks are executed once during a specific lifecycle event. This project demonstrates using an Anonymous Inner Class to implement the standard Java Runnable interface. By defining the logic directly within the startCountOperation method, we create a specialized, short-lived task. While this approach is functionally correct, it serves as a stepping stone toward understanding more modern functional programming patterns in Java.
- Standard Interface: Utilized the built-in
java.lang.Runnableinterface. - Method Scope Implementation: Defined the anonymous class inside a specific instance method.
- Immediate Execution: Triggered the
run()method immediately after instantiation. - Encapsulation: Isolated the startup announcement logic within the production counter's domain.
- Java 8+ (Interfaces, Anonymous Inner Classes, Task Execution)
- ProductionCounter: Contains the core logic for counting operations.
- AppLauncher: Dedicated class with the
mainmethod to bootstrap the application.
The counter has been started
