10 * Interrelated interfaces and static methods for establishing
11 * flow-controlled components in which {@link Publisher Publishers}
12 * produce items consumed by one or more {@link Subscriber
13 * Subscribers}, each managed by a {@link Subscription
14 * Subscription}.
15 *
16 * <p>These interfaces correspond to the <a
17 * href="http://www.reactive-streams.org/"> reactive-streams</a>
18 * specification. They apply in both concurrent and distributed
19 * asynchronous settings: All (seven) methods are defined in {@code
20 * void} "one-way" message style. Communication relies on a simple form
21 * of flow control (method {@link Subscription#request}) that can be
22 * used to avoid resource management problems that may otherwise occur
23 * in "push" based systems.
24 *
25 * <p><b>Examples.</b> A {@link Publisher} usually defines its own
26 * {@link Subscription} implementation; constructing one in method
27 * {@code subscribe} and issuing it to the calling {@link
28 * Subscriber}. It publishes items to the subscriber asynchronously,
29 * normally using an {@link Executor}. For example, here is a very
30 * simple publisher that only issues (when requested) a single {@code
31 * TRUE} item to a single subscriber. Because the subscriber receives
32 * only a single item, this class does not use buffering and ordering
33 * control required in most implementations (for example {@link
34 * SubmissionPublisher}).
35 *
36 * <pre> {@code
37 * class OneShotPublisher implements Publisher<Boolean> {
38 * private final ExecutorService executor = ForkJoinPool.commonPool(); // daemon-based
39 * private boolean subscribed; // true after first subscribe
40 * public synchronized void subscribe(Subscriber<? super Boolean> subscriber) {
41 * if (subscribed)
42 * subscriber.onError(new IllegalStateException()); // only one allowed
43 * else {
44 * subscribed = true;
45 * subscriber.onSubscribe(new OneShotSubscription(subscriber, executor));
46 * }
47 * }
48 * static class OneShotSubscription implements Subscription {
49 * private final Subscriber<? super Boolean> subscriber;
50 * private final ExecutorService executor;
51 * private Future<?> future; // to allow cancellation
52 * private boolean completed;
53 * OneShotSubscription(Subscriber<? super Boolean> subscriber,
54 * ExecutorService executor) {
55 * this.subscriber = subscriber;
56 * this.executor = executor;
57 * }
58 * public synchronized void request(long n) {
59 * if (n != 0 && !completed) {
60 * completed = true;
61 * if (n < 0) {
62 * IllegalArgumentException ex = new IllegalArgumentException();
63 * executor.execute(() -> subscriber.onError(ex));
64 * } else {
65 * future = executor.submit(() -> {
66 * subscriber.onNext(Boolean.TRUE);
67 * subscriber.onComplete();
68 * });
69 * }
70 * }
71 * }
72 * public synchronized void cancel() {
73 * completed = true;
74 * if (future != null) future.cancel(false);
75 * }
76 * }
77 * }}</pre>
78 *
79 * <p>A {@link Subscriber} arranges that items be requested and
80 * processed. Items (invocations of {@link Subscriber#onNext}) are
81 * not issued unless requested, but multiple items may be requested.
82 * Many Subscriber implementations can arrange this in the style of
83 * the following example, where a buffer size of 1 single-steps, and
84 * larger sizes usually allow for more efficient overlapped processing
85 * with less communication; for example with a value of 64, this keeps
86 * total outstanding requests between 32 and 64.
87 * Because Subscriber method invocations for a given {@link
88 * Subscription} are strictly ordered, there is no need for these
89 * methods to use locks or volatiles unless a Subscriber maintains
90 * multiple Subscriptions (in which case it is better to instead
91 * define multiple Subscribers, each with its own Subscription).
92 *
93 * <pre> {@code
94 * class SampleSubscriber<T> implements Subscriber<T> {
95 * final Consumer<? super T> consumer;
96 * Subscription subscription;
97 * final long bufferSize;
98 * long count;
99 * SampleSubscriber(long bufferSize, Consumer<? super T> consumer) {
100 * this.bufferSize = bufferSize;
101 * this.consumer = consumer;
102 * }
103 * public void onSubscribe(Subscription subscription) {
104 * long initialRequestSize = bufferSize;
105 * count = bufferSize - bufferSize / 2; // re-request when half consumed
106 * (this.subscription = subscription).request(initialRequestSize);
107 * }
108 * public void onNext(T item) {
109 * if (--count <= 0)
110 * subscription.request(count = bufferSize - bufferSize / 2);
111 * consumer.accept(item);
112 * }
113 * public void onError(Throwable ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); }
114 * public void onComplete() {}
115 * }}</pre>
116 *
117 * <p>The default value of {@link #defaultBufferSize} may provide a
118 * useful starting point for choosing request sizes and capacities in
119 * Flow components based on expected rates, resources, and usages.
120 * Or, when flow control is never needed, a subscriber may initially
121 * request an effectively unbounded number of items, as in:
122 *
123 * <pre> {@code
124 * class UnboundedSubscriber<T> implements Subscriber<T> {
125 * public void onSubscribe(Subscription subscription) {
126 * subscription.request(Long.MAX_VALUE); // effectively unbounded
127 * }
128 * public void onNext(T item) { use(item); }
129 * public void onError(Throwable ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); }
130 * public void onComplete() {}
131 * void use(T item) { ... }
132 * }}</pre>
