package sun.security.action;

A convenience class for retrieving the Long value of a system property as a privileged action.

An instance of this class can be used as the argument of AccessController.doPrivileged.

The following code retrieves the Long value of the system property named "prop" as a privileged action. Since it does not pass a default value to be used in case the property "prop" is not defined, it has to check the result for null:

Long tmp = java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged
    (new sun.security.action.GetLongAction("prop"));
long l;
if (tmp != null) {
    l = tmp.longValue();
}

The following code retrieves the Long value of the system property named "prop" as a privileged action, and also passes a default value to be used in case the property "prop" is not defined:

long l = java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged
     (new GetLongAction("prop")).longValue();

public class GetLongAction implements java.security.PrivilegedAction<Long> { private String theProp; private long defaultVal; private boolean defaultSet = false;
Constructor that takes the name of the system property whose Long value needs to be determined.

Constructor that takes the name of the system property and the default value of that property.
Params:
  • theProp – the name of the system property.
  • defaulVal – the default value.

Determines the Long value of the system property whose name was specified in the constructor.

If there is no property of the specified name, or if the property does not have the correct numeric format, then a Long object representing the default value that was specified in the constructor is returned, or null if no default value was specified.

Returns:the Long value of the property.
