19 * Abstract base class for tasks that run within a {@link
20 * ForkJoinPool}. A ForkJoinTask is a thread-like entity that is much
21 * lighter weight than a normal thread. Huge numbers of tasks and
22 * subtasks may be hosted by a small number of actual threads in a
23 * ForkJoinPool, at the price of some usage limitations.
24 *
25 * <p> A "main" ForkJoinTask begins execution when submitted to a
26 * {@link ForkJoinPool}. Once started, it will usually in turn start
27 * other subtasks. As indicated by the name of this class, many
28 * programs using ForkJoinTasks employ only methods {@code fork}
29 * and {@code join}, or derivatives such as
30 * {@code invokeAll}. However, this class also provides a number
31 * of other methods that can come into play in advanced usages, as
32 * well as extension mechanics that allow support of new forms of
33 * fork/join processing.
34 *
35 * <p>A ForkJoinTask is a lightweight form of {@link Future}. The
36 * efficiency of ForkJoinTasks stems from a set of restrictions (that
37 * are only partially statically enforceable) reflecting their
38 * intended use as computational tasks calculating pure functions or
39 * operating on purely isolated objects. The primary coordination
40 * mechanisms are {@link #fork}, that arranges asynchronous execution,
41 * and {@link #join}, that doesn't proceed until the task's result has
42 * been computed. Computations should avoid {@code synchronized}
43 * methods or blocks, and should minimize other blocking
44 * synchronization apart from joining other tasks or using
45 * synchronizers such as Phasers that are advertised to cooperate with
46 * fork/join scheduling. Tasks should also not perform blocking IO,
47 * and should ideally access variables that are completely independent
48 * of those accessed by other running tasks. Minor breaches of these
49 * restrictions, for example using shared output streams, may be
50 * tolerable in practice, but frequent use may result in poor
51 * performance, and the potential to indefinitely stall if the number
52 * of threads not waiting for IO or other external synchronization
53 * becomes exhausted. This usage restriction is in part enforced by
54 * not permitting checked exceptions such as {@code IOExceptions}
55 * to be thrown. However, computations may still encounter unchecked
56 * exceptions, that are rethrown to callers attempting join
57 * them. These exceptions may additionally include
58 * RejectedExecutionExceptions stemming from internal resource
59 * exhaustion such as failure to allocate internal task queues.
60 *
61 * <p>The primary method for awaiting completion and extracting
62 * results of a task is {@link #join}, but there are several variants:
63 * The {@link Future#get} methods support interruptible and/or timed
64 * waits for completion and report results using {@code Future}
65 * conventions. Method {@link #helpJoin} enables callers to actively
66 * execute other tasks while awaiting joins, which is sometimes more
67 * efficient but only applies when all subtasks are known to be
68 * strictly tree-structured. Method {@link #invoke} is semantically
69 * equivalent to {@code fork(); join()} but always attempts to
70 * begin execution in the current thread. The "<em>quiet</em>" forms
71 * of these methods do not extract results or report exceptions. These
72 * may be useful when a set of tasks are being executed, and you need
73 * to delay processing of results or exceptions until all complete.
74 * Method {@code invokeAll} (available in multiple versions)
75 * performs the most common form of parallel invocation: forking a set
76 * of tasks and joining them all.
77 *
78 * <p> The ForkJoinTask class is not usually directly subclassed.
79 * Instead, you subclass one of the abstract classes that support a
80 * particular style of fork/join processing. Normally, a concrete
81 * ForkJoinTask subclass declares fields comprising its parameters,
82 * established in a constructor, and then defines a {@code compute}
83 * method that somehow uses the control methods supplied by this base
84 * class. While these methods have {@code public} access (to allow
85 * instances of different task subclasses to call each others
86 * methods), some of them may only be called from within other
87 * ForkJoinTasks (as may be determined using method {@link
88 * #inForkJoinPool}). Attempts to invoke them in other contexts
89 * result in exceptions or errors, possibly including
90 * ClassCastException.
91 *
92 * <p>Most base support methods are {@code final} because their
93 * implementations are intrinsically tied to the underlying
94 * lightweight task scheduling framework, and so cannot be overridden.
95 * Developers creating new basic styles of fork/join processing should
96 * minimally implement {@code protected} methods
97 * {@code exec}, {@code setRawResult}, and
98 * {@code getRawResult}, while also introducing an abstract
99 * computational method that can be implemented in its subclasses,
100 * possibly relying on other {@code protected} methods provided
101 * by this class.
102 *
103 * <p>ForkJoinTasks should perform relatively small amounts of
104 * computations, otherwise splitting into smaller tasks. As a very
105 * rough rule of thumb, a task should perform more than 100 and less
106 * than 10000 basic computational steps. If tasks are too big, then
107 * parallelism cannot improve throughput. If too small, then memory
108 * and internal task maintenance overhead may overwhelm processing.
109 *
110 * <p>ForkJoinTasks are {@code Serializable}, which enables them
111 * to be used in extensions such as remote execution frameworks. It is
112 * in general sensible to serialize tasks only before or after, but
113 * not during execution. Serialization is not relied on during
114 * execution itself.
