Threading:

getCritical

boolean getCritical()

Get whether the network event is a critical event.

Returns:

Returns the event criticality.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - Thrown in case the event is currently being scheduled by a dispatcher. It is illegal to change the criticality of an event while it is owned by the dispatcher.

This method returns whether the network event is marked as a critical event. Critical events are treated specially during scheduling and dispatch. Normally, in case there is a user event ready for dispatch, the event is dispatched and control returned to the caller. The presence of a scheduled critical event forces the dispatcher to perform a select even if a user event is ready for dispatch.

This method is safe for concurrent access by multiple threads.
