  2. Callback (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callback_(computer...

    In computer programming, a callback is a function that is stored as data (a reference) and designed to be called by another function – often back to the original abstraction layer. A function that accepts a callback parameter may be designed to call back before returning to its caller which is known as synchronous or blocking.

  3. Asynchronous method invocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asynchronous_method_invocation

    One can also pass a callback method to BeginAccomplish, to be invoked when the long-running method completes. It typically calls EndAccomplish to obtain the return value of the long-running method. A problem with the callback mechanism is that the callback function is naturally executed in the worker thread (rather than in the original calling ...

  4. Direct Web Remoting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Web_Remoting

    DWR solves this problem by allowing the web developer to specify a function to be called when the data is returned using an extra method parameter. This extra method is called CallBack Method. The value returned from the java function will be passed to the callback method. Here is a sample Callback:

  5. Closure (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closure_(computer_programming)

    As of Java 8, Java supports functions as first class objects. Lambda expressions of this form are considered of type Function<T,U> with T being the domain and U the image type. The expression can be called with its .apply(T t) method, but not with a standard method call.

  6. Function object - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_object

    Java has no first-class functions, so function objects are usually expressed by an interface with a single method (most commonly the Callable interface), typically with the implementation being an anonymous inner class, or, starting in Java 8, a lambda. For an example from Java's standard library, java.util.Collections.sort() takes a List and a ...

  7. Dependency injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependency_injection

    Method Injection, where dependencies are provided to a method only when required for specific functionality. Setter injection, where the client exposes a setter method which accepts the dependency. Interface injection, where the dependency's interface provides an injector method that will inject the dependency into any client passed to it.

  8. Fold (higher-order function) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fold_(higher-order_function)

    Folds can be regarded as consistently replacing the structural components of a data structure with functions and values. Lists, for example, are built up in many functional languages from two primitives: any list is either an empty list, commonly called nil ([]), or is constructed by prefixing an element in front of another list, creating what is called a cons node ( Cons(X1,Cons(X2,Cons ...

  9. JSONP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSONP

    In July 2005, George Jempty suggested an optional variable assignment be prepended to JSON. [19] [20] The original proposal for JSONP, where the padding is a callback function, appears to have been made by Bob Ippolito in December 2005 [21] and is now used by many Web 2.0 applications such as Dojo Toolkit and Google Web Toolkit.
