      ccd.DarkOverlapTiler.TilerThread

All Implemented Interfaces:

Runnable

Enclosing class:

DarkOverlapTiler

private class DarkOverlapTiler.TilerThread
extends Thread

A tiler thread is a thread that runs forever until its cancel method is called. It generatesd darks and bias averages of the tile pointed to by #tile. If successful, the tile number is advanced and the process is restarted. Once all tiles have been finished, the tiler starts again, writing master to a new directory.

Method Detail

run

public void run()

Executes tiling darks. As long as we are not canceled, we use the current run number to create a new dark-tiles directory, if not existing. Then, the current tile number is used to construct a read-out window on the ccd, which is set. Then, we expose bias and dark frames until we reach the requested number of frames. These are than averaged and stored, along with the temperature, if available.

Specified by:

run in interface Runnable

Overrides:

run in class Thread

cancel

public void cancel()

If this method is called, we try to cancel as soon as possible. All the frames read for the current tile are lost.
