17 * Abstract base class for tasks that run within a {@link ForkJoinPool}.
18 * A {@code ForkJoinTask} is a thread-like entity that is much
19 * lighter weight than a normal thread. Huge numbers of tasks and
20 * subtasks may be hosted by a small number of actual threads in a
21 * ForkJoinPool, at the price of some usage limitations.
22 *
23 * <p>A "main" {@code ForkJoinTask} begins execution when submitted
24 * to a {@link ForkJoinPool}. Once started, it will usually in turn
25 * start other subtasks. As indicated by the name of this class,
26 * many programs using {@code ForkJoinTask} employ only methods
27 * {@link #fork} and {@link #join}, or derivatives such as {@link
28 * #invokeAll}. However, this class also provides a number of other
29 * methods that can come into play in advanced usages, as well as
30 * extension mechanics that allow support of new forms of fork/join
31 * processing.
32 *
33 * <p>A {@code ForkJoinTask} is a lightweight form of {@link Future}.
34 * The efficiency of {@code ForkJoinTask}s stems from a set of
35 * restrictions (that are only partially statically enforceable)
36 * reflecting their intended use as computational tasks calculating
37 * pure functions or operating on purely isolated objects. The
38 * primary coordination mechanisms are {@link #fork}, that arranges
39 * asynchronous execution, and {@link #join}, that doesn't proceed
40 * until the task's result has been computed. Computations should
41 * avoid {@code synchronized} methods or blocks, and should minimize
42 * other blocking synchronization apart from joining other tasks or
43 * using synchronizers such as Phasers that are advertised to
44 * cooperate with fork/join scheduling. Tasks should also not perform
45 * blocking IO, and should ideally access variables that are
46 * completely independent of those accessed by other running
47 * tasks. Minor breaches of these restrictions, for example using
48 * shared output streams, may be tolerable in practice, but frequent
49 * use may result in poor performance, and the potential to
50 * indefinitely stall if the number of threads not waiting for IO or
51 * other external synchronization becomes exhausted. This usage
52 * restriction is in part enforced by not permitting checked
53 * exceptions such as {@code IOExceptions} to be thrown. However,
54 * computations may still encounter unchecked exceptions, that are
55 * rethrown to callers attempting join them. These exceptions may
56 * additionally include RejectedExecutionExceptions stemming from
57 * internal resource exhaustion such as failure to allocate internal
58 * 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.
