JGraph AWT EventQueue exception on paint (with multithreading)_问答_开发者

Situation

I have a visualisation using JGraph. The graph is updated by a different thread to that which instantiates the Visualisation.

Expected Behaviour

The graph should be updated by various worker threads. The function that the threads call to update the graph is syncronized, so the worker threads will not causes concurrency issues between themselves.

Actual Behaviour

There is (ocassionally) an exception thrown in the AWT-EventQueue thread when painting. Sometimes it's a null pointer, sometimes it's an index out of bounds. Here's a stack trace:

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException at com.mxgraph.shape.mxConnectorShape.translatePoint(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.shape.mxConnectorShape.paintShape(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.canvas.mxGraphics2DCanvas.drawCell(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.view.mxGraph.drawState(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.swing.mxGraphComponent$mxGraphControl.drawCell(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.swing.mxGraphComponent$mxGraphControl.drawChildren(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.swing.mxGraphComponent$mxGraphControl.drawCell(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.swing.mxGraphComponent$mxGraphControl.drawChildren(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.swing.mxGraphComponent$mxGraphControl.drawCell(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.swing.mxGraphComponent$mxGraphControl.drawChildren(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.swing.mxGraphComponent$mxGraphControl.drawCell(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.swing.mxGraphComponent$mxGraphControl.drawFromRootCell(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.swing.mxGraphComponent$mxGraphControl.drawGraph(Unknown Source) at com.mxgraph.swing.mxGraphComponent$mxGraphControl.paintComponent(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(JComponent.java:1029) at com.mxgraph.swing.mxGraphComponent$mxGraphControl.paint(Unknown Source) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(JComponent.java:866) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(JComponent.java:1038) at javax.swing.JViewport.paint(JViewport.java:764) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintToOffscreen(JComponent.java:5138) at javax.swing.BufferStrategyPaintManager.paint(BufferStrategyPaintManager.java:302) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.paint(RepaintManager.java:1188) at javax.swing.JComponent._paintImmediately(JComponent.java:5086) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintImmediately(JComponent.java:4896) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.paintDirtyRegions(RepaintManager.java:783) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.paintDirtyRegions(RepaintManager.java:735) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.prePaintDirtyRegions(RepaintManager.java:677) at javax.swing.RepaintManager.access$700(RepaintManager.java:58) at javax.swing.RepaintManager$ProcessingRunnable.run(RepaintManager.java:1593) at java.awt.event.InvocationEvent.dispatch(InvocationEvent.java:226) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEventImpl(EventQueue.java:647) at java.awt.EventQueue.access$000(EventQueue.java:96) at java.awt.EventQueue$1.run(EventQueue.java:608) at java.awt.EventQueue$1.run(EventQueue.java:606) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.security.AccessControlContext$1.doIntersectionPrivilege(AccessControlContext.java:105) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:617) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForFilters(EventDispatchThread.java:275) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForFilter(EventDispatchThread.java:200) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:190) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:185) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:177) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(EventDispatchThread.java:138)

It doesn't seem to adversely affect the running of the application. A new AWT-EventQueue spawns, which will at some stage inevitably encounter the same problem.

Cause

I think it must caused by updating the graph in a separate thread to the one that the JFrame is instantiated in. The things that need to be drawn are being changed whilst the paint method is trying to draw them.

Question

How do I go about working around this problem? Can I somehow synchronize the paint method with the method that updates the graph?

    public static void main(String[] args){
        Controller.getInstance();
    }

    private Controller(){
        graph = JsonUtil.initFromJson(); //graph has many worker threads running which can call containerMoved
        viz = new Visualisation(graph);
    }

    private static class SingletonHolder{
        private static final Controller INSTANCE = new Controller();
    }

    public static Controller getInstance(){
        return SingletonHolder.INSTANCE;
    }

    public synchronized void containerMoved(Container container, Node from, Node to){
        viz.moveContainer(container, to);
    }
}

Not answer to your question, just some notice for your concept.

Can you show us your public static void main(String[] args) {...} methods? I am hoping that there is something that looks like:

public static void main(String[] args) { SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
```
        public void run() {
            Visualisation vis = new Visualisation();
        }
    });
}
```
this.setSize(800, 600); should be this.setpreferredSize(new Dimension(800, 600));
Then add this.pack(); before last line (this.setVisible(true);)

EDIT:

What type of Components returns mxGraphComponent graphComponent = new mxGraphComponent(graph); because if is custom Components based on JPanel then

getContentPane().add(graphComponent); should be add(graphComponent);

All input from backGround thread/task must be wrapped into invokeLater(). If it is flickering or freezing, then you have to look for invokeAndWait(). Personally I hate invokeAndWait() exists there, but for this method I can't give you some correct suggestions. Or:
If you'll run your task on some periodical bases, then you have to look for Runnable (output must be wrapped into invokeLater) or for SwingWorker.
