## Intent
|
||||
By representing a computation in one of 2 states
|
||||
(completed with result, or a reference to the reminder of the computation,
|
||||
something like the way a java.util.Supplier does)
|
||||
it is possible to implement algorithms recursively in Java without blowing the stack
|
||||
and to interleave the execution of functions without hard coding them together or even using threads.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Applicability
|
||||
Use the Trampoline pattern when
|
||||
|
||||
* For implementing tail recursive function. This pattern allows to switch on a stackless operation.
|
||||
* For to interleaving the execution of two or more functions on the same thread.
|
||||
|
||||
## Known uses(real world examples)
|
||||
* Trampoline refers to using reflection to avoid using inner classes, for example in event listeners.
|
||||
The time overhead of a reflection call is traded for the space overhead of an inner class.
|
||||
Trampolines in Java usually involve the creation of a GenericListener to pass events to an outer class.
