(Dicer related) Command queuing?

[chandlerethan 26]

List<String> cmdQueue = new List<String>();

public void onMessage(Message m) {
     cmdQueue.add(m.getMessage());
}

in your loop:

 

if(!cmdQueue.isEmpty()) {
    if(cmdQueue.get(0) != null) { //extra null check, not really needed.
        doCommand(cmdQueue.get(0));  //this gets the oldest command (the first sent command)and handles it
        cmdQueue.remove(0); //this removes the command from the list after it's been handled
     }
}

This is in no way the best way to do it, but it's one way to do it.

Sorry I've only just seen this now.

 

Hmm, looks like it should work quite effectively. Thanks a lot

No problem

If you're still looking for solutions, there is a literal Queue class in Java that does what you would expect.
