Runtime Class

Definition

Every Java application has a single instance of class Runtime that allows the application to interface with the environment in which the application is running.

[Android.Runtime.Register("java/lang/Runtime", DoNotGenerateAcw=true)]
public class Runtime : Java.Lang.Object
[<Android.Runtime.Register("java/lang/Runtime", DoNotGenerateAcw=true)>]
type Runtime = class
    inherit Object

Attributes

Remarks

Every Java application has a single instance of class Runtime that allows the application to interface with the environment in which the application is running. The current runtime can be obtained from the getRuntime method.

An application cannot create its own instance of this class.

Methods

AddShutdownHook(Thread)

Registers a new virtual-machine shutdown hook.

AvailableProcessors()

Returns the number of processors available to the Java virtual machine.

Clone()

Creates and returns a copy of this object.

(Inherited from Object)
Dispose() (Inherited from Object)
Dispose(Boolean) (Inherited from Object)
Equals(Object)

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

(Inherited from Object)
Exec(String)

Executes the specified string command in a separate process.

Exec(String, String[])

Executes the specified string command in a separate process with the specified environment.

Exec(String, String[], File)

Executes the specified string command in a separate process with the specified environment and working directory.

Exec(String[])

Executes the specified command and arguments in a separate process.

Exec(String[], String[])

Executes the specified command and arguments in a separate process with the specified environment.

Exec(String[], String[], File)

Executes the specified command and arguments in a separate process with the specified environment and working directory.

Exit(Int32)

Terminates the currently running Java virtual machine by initiating its shutdown sequence.

FreeMemory()

Returns the amount of free memory in the Java Virtual Machine.

Gc()

Runs the garbage collector.

GetHashCode()

Returns a hash code value for the object.

(Inherited from Object)
GetLocalizedInputStream(Stream)
Obsolete.

Creates a localized version of an input stream.

GetLocalizedOutputStream(Stream)
Obsolete.

Creates a localized version of an output stream.

GetRuntime()

Returns the runtime object associated with the current Java application.

Halt(Int32)

Forcibly terminates the currently running Java virtual machine.

JavaFinalize()

Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.

(Inherited from Object)
Load(String)

Loads the native library specified by the filename argument.

LoadAsync(String)
LoadLibrary(String)

Loads the native library specified by the libname argument.

LoadLibraryAsync(String)
MaxMemory()

Returns the maximum amount of memory that the Java virtual machine will attempt to use.

Notify()

Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.

(Inherited from Object)
NotifyAll()

Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.

(Inherited from Object)
RemoveShutdownHook(Thread)

De-registers a previously-registered virtual-machine shutdown hook.

RunFinalization()

Runs the finalization methods of any objects pending finalization.

RunFinalizersOnExit(Boolean)
Obsolete.

Enable or disable finalization on exit; doing so specifies that the finalizers of all objects that have finalizers that have not yet been automatically invoked are to be run before the Java runtime exits.

Not implemented, does nothing.

UnregisterFromRuntime() (Inherited from Object)
Wait()

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being <em>notified</em> or <em>interrupted</em>.

(Inherited from Object)
Wait(Int64)

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being <em>notified</em> or <em>interrupted</em>, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.

(Inherited from Object)
Wait(Int64, Int32)

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being <em>notified</em> or <em>interrupted</em>, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
