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