public final class SimulatorHookExecutor

Object
SimulatorHookExecutor

Cross-platform registry of named actions that the JavaSE simulator exposes.

The simulator scans cn1libs (and the app itself) for META-INF/codenameone/simulator-hooks.properties files; each hook declared there is registered here under namespace:itemN keys. The JavaSE port hooks into CN.execute(String) / CN.canExecute(String) so cross-platform code (such as a CN1 UnitTest under common/) can invoke a hook via the same execute it would use for any other URL, with no JavaSE-only import.

On Android, iOS, JavaScript and other production targets this registry is always empty, so execute returns false and isRegistered is always false – the “running outside a simulator” signal.

Hooks can be menu-backed (shipped with a label and visible in the simulator’s menu bar) or API-only (no label, callable by URL only). Tests that want behavioral coverage of cn1lib internals lean on the API-only form so the menu UX stays focused on actions a human would click.

Methods

`public static boolean execute(String hookId)`	Invokes the action registered under `hookId`.
`public static boolean isRegistered(String hookId)`	Returns `true` if a hook with the given id is registered.
`public static` `Collection<String> registeredIds()`	Diagnostic view of every registered id.
`public static void register(Map<String, Runnable> registered)`	Replaces the entire registry.

Method details

execute

public static boolean execute(String hookId)

Invokes the action registered under hookId. Returns true if a hook with that id was found and dispatched, false otherwise. Invocation is delegated to whatever the registering code configured (the JavaSE port wraps each hook in Display.callSeriallyAndWait, so menu actions and tests run on the CN1 EDT and the call is synchronous from off-EDT callers).

Parameters

hookId String: opaque id of the form namespace:hook (the exact value the hook author chose in the properties file).

isRegistered

public static boolean isRegistered(String hookId)

Returns true if a hook with the given id is registered. Useful for tests that want to skip themselves gracefully when running on a platform that doesn’t expose the relevant cn1lib hook.

registeredIds

public static Collection<String> registeredIds()

Diagnostic view of every registered id. Returns an unmodifiable snapshot – never null. Intended for tests/inspectors; ordinary app code shouldn’t need this.

register

public static void register(Map<String, Runnable> registered)

Replaces the entire registry. The JavaSE port calls this every time it rebuilds the simulator menu (e.g., after a reload). On non-simulator targets nothing calls it and the registry stays empty.
