[jade-develop] Running containers on multiple jade platforms on one machine from java code

[Eike Lüders]

Hey,

I have a problem regarding to the use of multiple jade platforms on a single machine.
I use MacOS X 10.9 and Jade 4.3.0

I started two jade instances with different ports on the local computer (I also tried with -local-port).
java jade.Boot -gui -port 2010
java jade.Boot -gui -port 2011

Now I try to start the containers from a java program with the following code.
The code runs in a loop and should create one container on each jade platform that is specified with the port.
(Here i also tried with Profile.LOCAL_PORT)
({PORT} stands for either 2010 or 2011)

Runtime jadeRuntime = Runtime.instance();
ProfileImpl profile = new ProfileImpl();
profile.setParameter(Profile.CONTAINER_NAME, "Container_" + i);
profile.setParameter(Profile.MAIN_HOST, "localhost");
profile.setParameter(Profile.MAIN_PORT, {PORT} + "");
AgentContainer container = jadeRuntime.createAgentContainer(profile);

The problem that occurs is that jade starts all containers always on the same jade platform and does not
create them on the platform that is specified by the port.

If I try to start the containers via cmd it works correctly:
java jade.Boot -gui -local-port 2010
java jade.Boot -gui -local-port 2011

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hi,

The point is that you are launching in the same JVM 2 containers belonging to 2 different platforms. This is possible, BUT you are required to explicitly specify the Platform ID each container is connecting to -->

When starting the Main Containers use add the -platform-id option as below
java jade.Boot -gui -port 2010 -platform-id P1
java jade.Boot -gui -port 2011 -platform-id P2

Similarly when starting the containers from code add the Profile.PLATFORM_ID option as below
Runtime jadeRuntime = Runtime.instance();
ProfileImpl profile = new ProfileImpl();
profile.setParameter(Profile.CONTAINER_NAME, "Container_" + i);
profile.setParameter(Profile.MAIN_HOST, "localhost");
profile.setParameter(Profile.MAIN_PORT, {PORT} + "");
profile.setParameter(Profile.PLATFORM_ID, "P1"); // P2 at the second round
AgentContainer container = jadeRuntime.createAgentContainer(profile);

Bye,

Giovanni

Hi,

The two Main Container MUST be launched in different JVMs. Note in fact that while you can have peripheral containers belonging to different platforms in the same JVM, this is not the case for Main Containers. If you launch a Main Container in a JVM any other container running in the same JVM will belong to the same platform.

Bye,

Giovanni

Hi Giovanni,

thanks for your reply. I tried your suggestions but I still have the same problem.
The containers are always launched on the jade platform that was started last.

For example if I start P1 on port 2010 after P2 on port 2011 the containers are launched in P1.
If I start P2 after P1 the containers are launched on P2. No matter what I specify as PLATFORM_ID.

Do you have any other suggestions?
