## Class CriticalSectionController

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.jmeter.testelement.AbstractTestElement
  - - org.apache.jmeter.control.GenericController
    - - org.apache.jmeter.control.CriticalSectionController

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Cloneable, Controller, Searchable, TestElement, TestStateListener, ThreadListener, TestCompilerHelper

      public class CriticalSectionController
      extends GenericController
      implements ThreadListener, TestStateListener

  This is a Critical Section Controller; it will execute the set of statements (samplers/controllers, etc) under named lock.

  In a programming world - this is equivalent of :

       try {
                named_lock.lock();
                statements ....
       } finally {
                named_lock.unlock();
       }

  In JMeter you may have :

       Thread-Group (set to loop a number of times or indefinitely,
          ... Samplers ... (e.g. Counter )
          ... Other Controllers ....
          ... CriticalSectionController ( lock name like "foobar" )
             ... statements to perform when lock acquired
             ...
          ... Other Controllers /Samplers }

- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### CriticalSectionController

          public CriticalSectionController()

      constructor

    - #### CriticalSectionController

          public CriticalSectionController(String name)

      constructor
      Parameters:
        `name` - The name of this controller

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### setLockName

          public void setLockName(String name)

      Condition Accessor - this is gonna be any string value
      Parameters:
        `name` - The name of the lock for this controller

    - #### getLockName

          public String getLockName()

      Returns:
        String lock name

    - #### next

          public Sampler next()

      Description copied from class: `GenericController`

      Determines the next sampler to be processed.

      If `GenericController.isDone()` is `true`, returns null.

      Gets the list element using current pointer. If this is `null`, calls `GenericController.nextIsNull()`.

      If the list element is a `Sampler`, calls `GenericController.nextIsASampler(Sampler)`, otherwise calls `GenericController.nextIsAController(Controller)`

      If any of the called methods throws `NextIsNullException`, returns `null`, otherwise the value obtained above is returned.

      Specified by:
        `next` in interface `Controller`
      Overrides:
        `next` in class `GenericController`
      Returns:
        the next sampler or `null`
      See Also:
        `Controller.next()`

    - #### reInitialize

          protected void reInitialize()

      Called after execution of last child of the controller We release lock
      Overrides:
        `reInitialize` in class `GenericController`
      See Also:
        `GenericController.reInitialize()`

    - #### threadStarted

          public void threadStarted()

      Description copied from interface: `ThreadListener`
      Called for each thread before starting sampling. WARNING: this is called before any Config test elements are processed, so any properties they define will not have been merged in yet. See org.apache.jmeter.threads.JMeterThread#threadStarted()
      Specified by:
        `threadStarted` in interface `ThreadListener`

    - #### threadFinished

          public void threadFinished()

      Description copied from interface: `ThreadListener`
      Called for each thread after all samples have been processed. See org.apache.jmeter.threads.JMeterThread#threadFinished(org.apache.jmeter.engine.event.LoopIterationListener)
      Specified by:
        `threadFinished` in interface `ThreadListener`

    - #### testStarted

      Description copied from interface: `TestStateListener`

      Called just before the start of the test from the main engine thread. This is before the test elements are cloned. Note that not all the test variables will have been set up at this point.

      N.B. testStarted() and testEnded() are called from different threads.

      Specified by:
        `testStarted` in interface `TestStateListener`
      See Also:
        `StandardJMeterEngine.run()`

    - #### testStarted

          public void testStarted(String host)

      Description copied from interface: `TestStateListener`

      Called just before the start of the test from the main engine thread. This is before the test elements are cloned. Note that not all the test variables will have been set up at this point.

      N.B. testStarted() and testEnded() are called from different threads.

      Specified by:
        `testStarted` in interface `TestStateListener`
      Parameters:
        `host` - name of host
      See Also:
        `StandardJMeterEngine.run()`

    - #### testEnded

          public void testEnded()

      Description copied from interface: `TestStateListener`

      Called once for all threads after the end of a test. This will use the same element instances as at the start of the test.

      N.B. testStarted() and testEnded() are called from different threads.

      Specified by:
        `testEnded` in interface `TestStateListener`
      See Also:
        `StandardJMeterEngine.stopTest()`

    - #### testEnded

          public void testEnded(String host)

      Description copied from interface: `TestStateListener`

      Called once for all threads after the end of a test. This will use the same element instances as at the start of the test.

      N.B. testStarted() and testEnded() are called from different threads.
