[platform-debug-dev] IThread.getPriority() returns int. Not all platforms use int to represent
|
I would have to do a poll of the 10+ engines that we connect to but because
our plugin works with many different platforms we recently changed our
internal representation to a string allowing the engines to use numeric
values or terms like "Critical" or "Batch" for priorties. We don't do
anything with the values other than display so a string works well.

The plugin that I am creating connects to debug engines on various
platforms. Not all of them necessarily represent a thread's priority with
a number.
/**
* Returns the priority of this thread. The meaning of this
* number is operating-system dependent.
*
* @return thread priority
* @exception DebugException if this method fails. Reasons include:
* <ul><li>Failure communicating with the VM. The DebugException's
* status code contains the underlying exception responsible for
* the failure.</li>
*/
public int getPriority() throws DebugException;
Could IThread.getPriority() return a String instead?

I'm curious, which platform(s?) returns non-numeric thread priorities? What
does it(they?) use?
