20 * Abstract base class for tasks that run within a {@link ForkJoinPool}.
21 * A {@code ForkJoinTask} is a thread-like entity that is much
22 * lighter weight than a normal thread. Huge numbers of tasks and
23 * subtasks may be hosted by a small number of actual threads in a
24 * ForkJoinPool, at the price of some usage limitations.
25 *
26 * <p>A "main" {@code ForkJoinTask} begins execution when submitted
27 * to a {@link ForkJoinPool}. Once started, it will usually in turn
28 * start other subtasks. As indicated by the name of this class,
29 * many programs using {@code ForkJoinTask} employ only methods
30 * {@link #fork} and {@link #join}, or derivatives such as {@link
31 * #invokeAll}. However, this class also provides a number of other
32 * methods that can come into play in advanced usages, as well as
33 * extension mechanics that allow support of new forms of fork/join
34 * processing.
35 *
36 * <p>A {@code ForkJoinTask} is a lightweight form of {@link Future}.
37 * The efficiency of {@code ForkJoinTask}s stems from a set of
38 * restrictions (that are only partially statically enforceable)
39 * reflecting their intended use as computational tasks calculating
40 * pure functions or operating on purely isolated objects. The
41 * primary coordination mechanisms are {@link #fork}, that arranges
42 * asynchronous execution, and {@link #join}, that doesn't proceed
43 * until the task's result has been computed. Computations should
44 * avoid {@code synchronized} methods or blocks, and should minimize
45 * other blocking synchronization apart from joining other tasks or
46 * using synchronizers such as Phasers that are advertised to
47 * cooperate with fork/join scheduling. Tasks should also not perform
48 * blocking IO, and should ideally access variables that are
49 * completely independent of those accessed by other running
50 * tasks. Minor breaches of these restrictions, for example using
51 * shared output streams, may be tolerable in practice, but frequent
52 * use may result in poor performance, and the potential to
53 * indefinitely stall if the number of threads not waiting for IO or
54 * other external synchronization becomes exhausted. This usage
55 * restriction is in part enforced by not permitting checked
56 * exceptions such as {@code IOExceptions} to be thrown. However,
57 * computations may still encounter unchecked exceptions, that are
58 * rethrown to callers attempting to join them. These exceptions may
59 * additionally include RejectedExecutionExceptions stemming from
60 * internal resource exhaustion such as failure to allocate internal
61 * task queues.
62 *
63 * <p>The primary method for awaiting completion and extracting
64 * results of a task is {@link #join}, but there are several variants:
65 * The {@link Future#get} methods support interruptible and/or timed
66 * waits for completion and report results using {@code Future}
67 * conventions. Method {@link #helpJoin} enables callers to actively
68 * execute other tasks while awaiting joins, which is sometimes more
69 * efficient but only applies when all subtasks are known to be
70 * strictly tree-structured. Method {@link #invoke} is semantically
71 * equivalent to {@code fork(); join()} but always attempts to
72 * begin execution in the current thread. The "<em>quiet</em>" forms
73 * of these methods do not extract results or report exceptions. These
74 * may be useful when a set of tasks are being executed, and you need
75 * to delay processing of results or exceptions until all complete.
76 * Method {@code invokeAll} (available in multiple versions)
77 * performs the most common form of parallel invocation: forking a set
78 * of tasks and joining them all.
79 *
80 * <p>The ForkJoinTask class is not usually directly subclassed.
81 * Instead, you subclass one of the abstract classes that support a
82 * particular style of fork/join processing, typically {@link
83 * RecursiveAction} for computations that do not return results, or
84 * {@link RecursiveTask} for those that do. Normally, a concrete
85 * ForkJoinTask subclass declares fields comprising its parameters,
86 * established in a constructor, and then defines a {@code compute}
87 * method that somehow uses the control methods supplied by this base
88 * class. While these methods have {@code public} access (to allow
89 * instances of different task subclasses to call each other's
90 * methods), some of them may only be called from within other
91 * ForkJoinTasks (as may be determined using method {@link
92 * #inForkJoinPool}). Attempts to invoke them in other contexts
93 * result in exceptions or errors, possibly including
94 * ClassCastException.
95 *
96 * <p>Most base support methods are {@code final}, to prevent
97 * overriding of implementations that are intrinsically tied to the
98 * underlying lightweight task scheduling framework. Developers
99 * creating new basic styles of fork/join processing should minimally
100 * implement {@code protected} methods {@link #exec}, {@link
101 * #setRawResult}, and {@link #getRawResult}, while also introducing
102 * an abstract computational method that can be implemented in its
103 * subclasses, possibly relying on other {@code protected} methods
104 * provided by this class.
105 *
106 * <p>ForkJoinTasks should perform relatively small amounts of
107 * computation. Large tasks should be split into smaller subtasks,
108 * usually via recursive decomposition. As a very rough rule of thumb,
109 * a task should perform more than 100 and less than 10000 basic
110 * computational steps. If tasks are too big, then parallelism cannot
111 * improve throughput. If too small, then memory and internal task
112 * maintenance overhead may overwhelm processing.
113 *
114 * <p>This class provides {@code adapt} methods for {@link
115 * java.lang.Runnable} and {@link java.util.concurrent.Callable}, that
116 * may be of use when mixing execution of ForkJoinTasks with other
117 * kinds of tasks. When all tasks are of this form, consider using a
118 * pool in {@link ForkJoinPool#setAsyncMode}.
119 *
120 * <p>ForkJoinTasks are {@code Serializable}, which enables them to be
121 * used in extensions such as remote execution frameworks. It is
122 * sensible to serialize tasks only before or after, but not during,
123 * execution. Serialization is not relied on during execution itself.
