LinuxOperatingSystem

public LinuxOperatingSystem()

Method Detail

getFileSystem

public FileSystem getFileSystem()

Instantiates a FileSystem object.

Returns:

A FileSystem object.

getProcesses

public OSProcess[] getProcesses(int limit,
                                OperatingSystem.ProcessSort sort,
                                boolean slowFields)

Gets currently running processes. If a positive limit is specified, returns only that number of processes; zero will return all processes. The order may be specified by the sort parameter, for example, to return the top cpu or memory consuming processes; if null, no order is guaranteed.

Parameters:

limit - Max number of results to return, or 0 to return all results

sort - If not null, determines sorting of results

slowFields - If false, skip OSProcess fields that are slow to retrieve (e.g., group information on Windows, open files on Unix and Linux). If true, include all fields, regardless of how long it takes to retrieve the data.

Returns:

An array of OSProcess objects for the specified number (or all) of currently running processes, sorted as specified. The array may contain null elements if a process terminates during iteration.

getProcess

public OSProcess getProcess(int pid)

Gets information on a currently running process

Parameters:

pid - A process ID

Returns:

An OSProcess object for the specified process id if it is running; null otherwise

getChildProcesses

public OSProcess[] getChildProcesses(int parentPid,
                                     int limit,
                                     OperatingSystem.ProcessSort sort)

Gets currently running child processes of provided PID. If a positive limit is specified, returns only that number of processes; zero will return all processes. The order may be specified by the sort parameter, for example, to return the top cpu or memory consuming processes; if null, no order is guaranteed.

Parameters:

parentPid - A process ID

limit - Max number of results to return, or 0 to return all results

sort - If not null, determines sorting of results

Returns:

An array of OSProcess objects presenting the specified number (or all) of currently running child processes of the provided PID, sorted as specified. The array may contain null elements if a process terminates during iteration.

getProcessId

public int getProcessId()

Gets the current process ID

Returns:

the Process ID of the current process

getProcessCount

public int getProcessCount()

Get the number of processes currently running

Returns:

The number of processes running

getThreadCount

public int getThreadCount()

Get the number of threads currently running

Returns:

The number of threads running

getNetworkParams

public NetworkParams getNetworkParams()

Instantiates a NetworkParams object.

Returns:

A NetworkParams object.

getReleaseFilename

protected static java.lang.String getReleaseFilename()

Looks for a collection of possible distrib-release filenames

Returns:

The first valid matching filename

getHz

public static long getHz()

Gets Jiffies per second, useful for converting ticks to milliseconds and vice versa.

Returns:

Jiffies per second.
