check whether chunk is being saved

Is it possible to check whether a specified chunk is currently being saved to the files?

My plugin is crashing the server, because of changing BlockTypeIDs very often while the chunk is being saved (i think). How can i avoid this / react to this? Anyone an idea?

 

I assume that you're calling the bukkit API from a separate thread? If so, then that's your problem; using non-synchronized code will lead to crashes.

If you aren't using threads then your problem is something else because the the server should not be saving a chunk while executing your event code in the main thread at the same time.

 

Oh, you are right, i am calling the bukkit API from a timer thread.. how can i synchronize? Is there an easy possibility for timers / in java?
