Class CompletableFuture<T>

java.lang.Object

java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture<T>

Type Parameters:

T - The result type returned by this future's join and get methods

All Implemented Interfaces:

CompletionStage<T>, Future<T>

public class CompletableFuture<T>
extends Object
implements Future<T>, CompletionStage<T>

A Future that may be explicitly completed (setting its value and status), and may be used as a CompletionStage, supporting dependent functions and actions that trigger upon its completion.

When two or more threads attempt to complete, completeExceptionally, or cancel a CompletableFuture, only one of them succeeds.

In addition to these and related methods for directly manipulating status and results, CompletableFuture implements interface CompletionStage with the following policies:

• Actions supplied for dependent completions of non-async methods may be performed by the thread that completes the current CompletableFuture, or by any other caller of a completion method.
• All async methods without an explicit Executor argument are performed using the ForkJoinPool.commonPool() (unless it does not support a parallelism level of at least two, in which case, a new Thread is created to run each task). This may be overridden for non-static methods in subclasses by defining method defaultExecutor(). To simplify monitoring, debugging, and tracking, all generated asynchronous tasks are instances of the marker interface CompletableFuture.AsynchronousCompletionTask. Operations with time-delays can use adapter methods defined in this class, for example: supplyAsync(supplier, delayedExecutor(timeout, timeUnit)). To support methods with delays and timeouts, this class maintains at most one daemon thread for triggering and cancelling actions, not for running them.
• All CompletionStage methods are implemented independently of other public methods, so the behavior of one method is not impacted by overrides of others in subclasses.
• All CompletionStage methods return CompletableFutures. To restrict usages to only those methods defined in interface CompletionStage, use method minimalCompletionStage(). Or to ensure only that clients do not themselves modify a future, use method copy().

CompletableFuture also implements Future with the following policies:

• Since (unlike FutureTask) this class has no direct control over the computation that causes it to be completed, cancellation is treated as just another form of exceptional completion. Method cancel has the same effect as completeExceptionally(new CancellationException()). Method isCompletedExceptionally() can be used to determine if a CompletableFuture completed in any exceptional fashion.
• In case of exceptional completion with a CompletionException, methods get() and get(long, TimeUnit) throw an ExecutionException with the same cause as held in the corresponding CompletionException. To simplify usage in most contexts, this class also defines methods join() and getNow(T) that instead throw the CompletionException directly in these cases.

Arguments used to pass a completion result (that is, for parameters of type T) for methods accepting them may be null, but passing a null value for any other parameter will result in a NullPointerException being thrown.

Subclasses of this class should normally override the "virtual constructor" method newIncompleteFuture(), which establishes the concrete type returned by CompletionStage methods. For example, here is a class that substitutes a different default Executor and disables the obtrude methods:

 
 class MyCompletableFuture<T> extends CompletableFuture<T> {
   static final Executor myExecutor = ...;
   public MyCompletableFuture() { }
   public <U> CompletableFuture<U> newIncompleteFuture() {
     return new MyCompletableFuture<U>(); }
   public Executor defaultExecutor() {
     return myExecutor; }
   public void obtrudeValue(T value) {
     throw new UnsupportedOperationException(); }
   public void obtrudeException(Throwable ex) {
     throw new UnsupportedOperationException(); }
 }

When this stage is complete, the given action is invoked with the result (or null if none) and the exception (or null if none) of this stage as arguments. The returned stage is completed when the action returns.

Unlike method handle, this method is not designed to translate completion outcomes, so the supplied action should not throw an exception. However, if it does, the following rules apply: if this stage completed normally but the supplied action throws an exception, then the returned stage completes exceptionally with the supplied action's exception. Or, if this stage completed exceptionally and the supplied action throws an exception, then the returned stage completes exceptionally with this stage's exception.

allOf

public static CompletableFuture<Void> allOf(CompletableFuture<?>... cfs)

Returns a new CompletableFuture that is completed when all of the given CompletableFutures complete. If any of the given CompletableFutures complete exceptionally, then the returned CompletableFuture also does so, with a CompletionException holding this exception as its cause.

If no CompletableFutures are provided, returns a CompletableFuture completed with the value null.

Among the applications of this method is to await completion of a set of independent CompletableFutures before continuing a program, as in: CompletableFuture.allOf(c1, c2, c3).join();.

Parameters:

cfs - the CompletableFutures

Returns:

a new CompletableFuture that is completed when all of the given CompletableFutures complete

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the array or any of its elements are null

anyOf

public static CompletableFuture<Object> anyOf(CompletableFuture<?>... cfs)

Returns a new CompletableFuture that is completed when any of the given CompletableFutures complete, with the same result. Otherwise, if it completed exceptionally, the returned CompletableFuture also does so, with a CompletionException holding this exception as its cause. If no CompletableFutures are provided, returns an incomplete CompletableFuture.

Parameters:

cfs - the CompletableFutures

Returns:

a new CompletableFuture that is completed with the result or exception of any of the given CompletableFutures when one completes

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the array or any of its elements are null

cancel

Specified by:

isCancelled in interface Future<T>

Returns:

true if this CompletableFuture was cancelled before it completed normally

Returns:

true if this CompletableFuture completed exceptionally

obtrudeValue

public void obtrudeValue(T value)

Forcibly sets or resets the value subsequently returned by method get() and related methods, whether or not already completed. This method is designed for use only in error recovery actions, and even in such situations may result in ongoing dependent completions using established versus overwritten outcomes.

Parameters:

value - the completion value

obtrudeException

public void obtrudeException(Throwable ex)

Forcibly causes subsequent invocations of method get() and related methods to throw the given exception, whether or not already completed. This method is designed for use only in error recovery actions, and even in such situations may result in ongoing dependent completions using established versus overwritten outcomes.

Parameters:

ex - the exception

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the exception is null

getNumberOfDependents

public int getNumberOfDependents()

The state, in brackets, contains the String "Completed Normally" or the String "Completed Exceptionally", or the String "Not completed" followed by the number of CompletableFutures dependent upon its completion, if any.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

a string identifying this CompletableFuture, as well as its state

newIncompleteFuture

public <U> CompletableFuture<U> newIncompleteFuture()

Returns a new incomplete CompletableFuture of the type to be returned by a CompletionStage method. Subclasses should normally override this method to return an instance of the same class as this CompletableFuture. The default implementation returns an instance of class CompletableFuture.

defaultExecutor

public Executor defaultExecutor()

Returns the default Executor used for async methods that do not specify an Executor.

Returns:

the executor

Since:

9

copy

public CompletableFuture<T> copy()

Returns a new CompletableFuture that is completed normally with the same value as this CompletableFuture when it completes normally. If this CompletableFuture completes exceptionally, then the returned CompletableFuture completes exceptionally with a CompletionException with this exception as cause. The behavior is equivalent to thenApply(x -> x). This method may be useful as a form of "defensive copying", to prevent clients from completing, while still being able to arrange dependent actions.

Returns:

the new CompletableFuture

Since:

9

minimalCompletionStage

public CompletionStage<T> minimalCompletionStage()

Returns a new CompletionStage that is completed normally with the same value as this CompletableFuture when it completes normally, and cannot be independently completed or otherwise used in ways not defined by the methods of interface CompletionStage.

 minimalStage.toCompletableFuture().join(); 

Returns:

the new CompletionStage
