Class AbstractFuture<V>
- All Implemented Interfaces:
Future<V>
,ListenableFuture<V>
- Direct Known Subclasses:
SettableFuture
ListenableFuture
interface. This
class is preferable to FutureTask
for two
reasons: It implements ListenableFuture
, and it does not implement
Runnable
. (If you want a Runnable
implementation of
ListenableFuture
, create a ListenableFutureTask
, or submit your
tasks to a ListeningExecutorService
.)
This class implements all methods in ListenableFuture
.
Subclasses should provide a way to set the result of the computation through
the protected methods set(Object)
and
setException(Throwable)
. Subclasses may also override interruptTask()
, which will be invoked automatically if a call to cancel(true)
succeeds in canceling the future.
AbstractFuture
uses an AbstractQueuedSynchronizer
to deal
with concurrency issues and guarantee thread safety.
The state changing methods all return a boolean indicating success or failure in changing the future's state. Valid states are running, completed, failed, or cancelled.
This class uses an ExecutionList
to guarantee that all registered
listeners will be executed, either when the future finishes or, for listeners
that are added after the future completes, immediately.
Runnable
-Executor
pairs are stored in the execution list but
are not necessarily executed in the order in which they were added. (If a
listener is added after the Future is complete, it will be executed
immediately, even if earlier listeners have not been executed. Additionally,
executors need not guarantee FIFO execution, or different listeners may run
in different executors.)

addListener
Registers a listener to be run on the given executor. The listener will run when theFuture
's computation is complete or, if the computation is already complete, immediately.There is no guaranteed ordering of execution of listeners, but any listener added through this method is guaranteed to be called once the computation is complete.
Exceptions thrown by a listener will be propagated up to the executor. Any exception thrown during
Executor.execute
(e.g., aRejectedExecutionException
or an exception thrown by direct execution) will be caught and logged.Note: For fast, lightweight listeners that would be safe to execute in any thread, consider
MoreExecutors.directExecutor()
. For heavier listeners,directExecutor()
carries some caveats. For example, the listener may run on an unpredictable or undesirable thread:- If this
Future
is done at the timeaddListener
is called,addListener
will execute the listener inline. - If this
Future
is not yet done,addListener
will schedule the listener to be run by the thread that completes thisFuture
, which may be an internal system thread such as an RPC network thread.
Also note that, regardless of which thread executes the
directExecutor()
listener, all other registered but unexecuted listeners are prevented from running during its execution, even if those listeners are to run in other executors.This is the most general listener interface. For common operations performed using listeners, see
Futures
. For a simplified but general listener interface, seeaddCallback()
