19 * Abstract base class for tasks that run within a {@link ForkJoinPool}.
20 * A {@code 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} and
29 * {@code join}, or derivatives such as {@code invokeAll}. However,
30 * this class also provides a number of other methods that can come
31 * into play in advanced usages, as well as extension mechanics that
32 * allow support of new forms of fork/join processing.
33 *
34 * <p>A ForkJoinTask is a lightweight form of {@link Future}. The
35 * efficiency of ForkJoinTasks stems from a set of restrictions (that
36 * are only partially statically enforceable) reflecting their
37 * intended use as computational tasks calculating pure functions or
38 * operating on purely isolated objects. The primary coordination
39 * mechanisms are {@link #fork}, that arranges asynchronous execution,
40 * and {@link #join}, that doesn't proceed until the task's result has
41 * been computed. Computations should avoid {@code synchronized}
42 * methods or blocks, and should minimize other blocking
43 * synchronization apart from joining other tasks or using
44 * synchronizers such as Phasers that are advertised to cooperate with
45 * fork/join scheduling. Tasks should also not perform blocking IO,
46 * and should ideally access variables that are completely independent
47 * of those accessed by other running tasks. Minor breaches of these
48 * restrictions, for example using shared output streams, may be
49 * tolerable in practice, but frequent use may result in poor
50 * performance, and the potential to indefinitely stall if the number
51 * of threads not waiting for IO or other external synchronization
52 * becomes exhausted. This usage restriction is in part enforced by
53 * not permitting checked exceptions such as {@code IOExceptions}
54 * to be thrown. However, computations may still encounter unchecked
55 * exceptions, that are rethrown to callers attempting join
56 * them. These exceptions may additionally include
57 * RejectedExecutionExceptions stemming from internal resource
58 * exhaustion such as failure to allocate internal task queues.
59 *
60 * <p>The primary method for awaiting completion and extracting
61 * results of a task is {@link #join}, but there are several variants:
62 * The {@link Future#get} methods support interruptible and/or timed
63 * waits for completion and report results using {@code Future}
64 * conventions. Method {@link #helpJoin} enables callers to actively
65 * execute other tasks while awaiting joins, which is sometimes more
66 * efficient but only applies when all subtasks are known to be
67 * strictly tree-structured. Method {@link #invoke} is semantically
68 * equivalent to {@code fork(); join()} but always attempts to
69 * begin execution in the current thread. The "<em>quiet</em>" forms
70 * of these methods do not extract results or report exceptions. These
71 * may be useful when a set of tasks are being executed, and you need
72 * to delay processing of results or exceptions until all complete.
73 * Method {@code invokeAll} (available in multiple versions)
74 * performs the most common form of parallel invocation: forking a set
75 * of tasks and joining them all.
76 *
77 * <p> The ForkJoinTask class is not usually directly subclassed.
78 * Instead, you subclass one of the abstract classes that support a
79 * particular style of fork/join processing, typically {@link
80 * RecursiveAction} for computations that do not return results, or
81 * {@link RecursiveTask} for those that do. Normally, a concrete
82 * ForkJoinTask subclass declares fields comprising its parameters,
83 * established in a constructor, and then defines a {@code compute}
84 * method that somehow uses the control methods supplied by this base
85 * class. While these methods have {@code public} access (to allow
86 * instances of different task subclasses to call each others
87 * methods), some of them may only be called from within other
88 * ForkJoinTasks (as may be determined using method {@link
89 * #inForkJoinPool}). Attempts to invoke them in other contexts
90 * result in exceptions or errors, possibly including
91 * ClassCastException.
92 *
93 * <p>Most base support methods are {@code final} because their
94 * implementations are intrinsically tied to the underlying
95 * lightweight task scheduling framework, and so cannot be overridden.
96 * Developers creating new basic styles of fork/join processing should
97 * minimally implement {@code protected} methods
98 * {@link #exec}, {@link #setRawResult}, and
99 * {@link #getRawResult}, while also introducing an abstract
100 * computational method that can be implemented in its subclasses,
101 * possibly relying on other {@code protected} methods provided
102 * by this class.
103 *
104 * <p>ForkJoinTasks should perform relatively small amounts of
105 * computations, otherwise splitting into smaller tasks. As a very
106 * rough rule of thumb, a task should perform more than 100 and less
107 * than 10000 basic computational steps. If tasks are too big, then
108 * parallelism cannot improve throughput. If too small, then memory
109 * and internal task maintenance overhead may overwhelm processing.
110 *
111 * <p>This class provides {@code adapt} methods for {@link
112 * java.lang.Runnable} and {@link java.util.concurrent.Callable}, that
113 * may be of use when mixing execution of ForkJoinTasks with other
114 * kinds of tasks. When all tasks are of this form, consider using a
115 * pool in {@link ForkJoinPool#setAsyncMode}.
116 *
117 * <p>ForkJoinTasks are {@code Serializable}, which enables them
118 * to be used in extensions such as remote execution frameworks. It is
119 * in general sensible to serialize tasks only before or after, but
120 * not during execution. Serialization is not relied on during
121 * execution itself.
