DefaultThreadService

public DefaultThreadService()

Method Detail

run

public <V> Future<V> run(Callable<V> code)

Description copied from interface: ThreadService

Asynchronously executes the given code in a new thread, as decided by the thread service. Typically this means that the service allocates a thread from its pool, but ultimately the behavior is implementation-dependent. This method returns immediately.

Specified by:

run in interface ThreadService

Parameters:

code - The code to execute.

Returns:

A Future that will contain the result once the execution has finished. Call Future.get() to access to the return value (which will block until execution has completed).

run

public Future<?> run(Runnable code)

Description copied from interface: ThreadService

Asynchronously executes the given code in a new thread, as decided by the thread service. Typically this means that the service allocates a thread from its pool, but ultimately the behavior is implementation-dependent. This method returns immediately.

Specified by:

run in interface ThreadService

Parameters:

code - The code to execute.

Returns:

A Future that can be used to block until the execution has finished. Call Future.get() to do so.

isDispatchThread

public boolean isDispatchThread()

Description copied from interface: ThreadService

Gets whether the current thread is a dispatch thread for use with ThreadService.invoke(java.lang.Runnable) and ThreadService.queue(java.lang.Runnable).

In the case of AWT-based applications (e.g., Java on the desktop), this is typically the AWT Event Dispatch Thread (EDT). However, ultimately the behavior is implementation-dependent.

Specified by:

isDispatchThread in interface ThreadService

Returns:

True iff the current thread is considered a dispatch thread.

invoke

public void invoke(Runnable code)
            throws InterruptedException,
                   InvocationTargetException

Description copied from interface: ThreadService

Executes the given code in a special dispatch thread, blocking until execution is complete.

In the case of AWT-based applications (e.g., Java on the desktop), this is typically the AWT Event Dispatch Thread (EDT). However, ultimately the behavior is implementation-dependent.

Specified by:

invoke in interface ThreadService

Parameters:

code - The code to execute.

Throws:

InterruptedException - If the code execution is interrupted.

InvocationTargetException - If an uncaught exception occurs in the code during execution.

queue

public void queue(Runnable code)

Description copied from interface: ThreadService

Queues the given code for later execution in a special dispatch thread.

In the case of AWT-based applications (e.g., Java on the desktop), this is typically the AWT Event Dispatch Thread (EDT). However, ultimately the behavior is implementation-dependent.

Specified by:

queue in interface ThreadService

Parameters:

code - The code to execute.

getParent

public Thread getParent(Thread thread)

Description copied from interface: ThreadService

Returns the thread that called the specified thread.

This works only on threads which the thread service knows about, of course.

Specified by:

getParent in interface ThreadService

Parameters:

thread - the managed thread, null refers to the current thread

Returns:

the thread that asked the ThreadService to spawn the specified thread

getThreadContext

public ThreadService.ThreadContext getThreadContext(Thread thread)

Description copied from interface: ThreadService

Analyzes the ThreadService.ThreadContext of the given thread.

Specified by:

getThreadContext in interface ThreadService

Parameters:

thread - The thread to analyze.

Returns:

Information about the thread's ThreadService.ThreadContext. Either:

• ThreadService.ThreadContext.SAME - The thread was spawned by this very thread service, and thus shares the same ThreadService.ThreadContext.
• ThreadService.ThreadContext.OTHER - The thread was spawned by a different thread service, and thus has a different ThreadService.ThreadContext.
• ThreadService.ThreadContext.NONE - It is unknown what spawned the thread, so it is effectively ThreadService.ThreadContext-free.

dispose

public void dispose()

Description copied from interface: Disposable

Performs any needed cleanup of the object's services, in preparation for the object being retired (e.g., to make garbage collection possible).

Specified by:

dispose in interface Disposable

Overrides:

dispose in class AbstractService

newThread

public Thread newThread(Runnable r)

Specified by:

newThread in interface ThreadFactory
