Method for obtaining context of corresponding Xlet while playing BD-J title
View Patent ↗The present invention is to provide a method for enabling Blue-ray Disc Java (BD-J) to effectively obtain context of a corresponding application, namely an Xlet, while playing BD-J title, which comprises the steps of setting up source file attribute of each class by adding an Xlet context ID as an unique code to the class when loading all classes into a cache of the BD-J; looking up back onto a call stack to search for Xlet class of the current BD-J title when searching for Xlet context; and then obtaining the Xlet context through the Xlet context ID according to the source file attribute. Thus, the method of the present invention enables BD-J to normally play the BD-J title in the Blue-ray Disc Read Only Memory (BD-ROM) and, at the same time, effectively improves the playing performance.
1. A method for obtaining context of corresponding Xlet while playing Blue-ray Disc Java (BD-J) title comprises the steps of:
when loading all classes of an application, namely Xlet, that the current playing BD-J title needs into a cache of BD-J, setting up source file attribute of each class by adding an Xlet context identification (ID) as an unique code of the class;
when searching for Xlet context, looking up a call stack to search for Xlet class of the current BD-J title;
determining whether or not the Xlet class of the current BD-J title is obtained;
when it is determined that the Xlet class of the current BD-J title is not obtained, calling stack information of a creator who creates a Thread and then looping back to look up the call stack to search for the Xlet class of the current BD-J title; and
when it is determined that the Xlet class of the current BD-J title is obtained, obtaining the Xlet context ID according to the source file attribute and then acquiring the corresponding Xlet context through searching a context map by using the Xlet context ID.
2. The method as claimed in the claim 1 , wherein the call stack stores information about active subroutines of the running BD-J object, and the active subroutines are those which have been called, but have not yet completely executed.
3. The method as claimed in the claim 2 , wherein the call stack comprises stack frames each including a call corresponding to a subroutine which has not yet been terminated and encapsulates the data including context information, variables and return address.
