ThreadPoolExecutor

public class ThreadPoolExecutor extends AbstractExecutorService
An {@link ExecutorService} that executes each submitted task using one of possibly several pooled threads, normally configured using {@link Executors} factory methods.

Thread pools address two different problems: they usually provide improved performance when executing large numbers of asynchronous tasks, due to reduced per-task invocation overhead, and they provide a means of bounding and managing the resources, including threads, consumed when executing a collection of tasks. Each ThreadPoolExecutor also maintains some basic statistics, such as the number of completed tasks.

To be useful across a wide range of contexts, this class provides many adjustable parameters and extensibility hooks. However, programmers are urged to use the more convenient {@link Executors} factory methods {@link Executors#newCachedThreadPool} (unbounded thread pool, with automatic thread reclamation), {@link Executors#newFixedThreadPool} (fixed size thread pool) and {@link Executors#newSingleThreadExecutor} (single background thread), that preconfigure settings for the most common usage scenarios. Otherwise, use the following guide when manually configuring and tuning this class:

Core and maximum pool sizes
A ThreadPoolExecutor will automatically adjust the pool size (see {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#getPoolSize}) according to the bounds set by corePoolSize (see {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#getCorePoolSize}) and maximumPoolSize (see {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#getMaximumPoolSize}). When a new task is submitted in method {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#execute}, and fewer than corePoolSize threads are running, a new thread is created to handle the request, even if other worker threads are idle. If there are more than corePoolSize but less than maximumPoolSize threads running, a new thread will be created only if the queue is full. By setting corePoolSize and maximumPoolSize the same, you create a fixed-size thread pool. By setting maximumPoolSize to an essentially unbounded value such as Integer.MAX_VALUE, you allow the pool to accommodate an arbitrary number of concurrent tasks. Most typically, core and maximum pool sizes are set only upon construction, but they may also be changed dynamically using {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#setCorePoolSize} and {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#setMaximumPoolSize}.
On-demand construction
By default, even core threads are initially created and started only when needed by new tasks, but this can be overridden dynamically using method {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#prestartCoreThread} or {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#prestartAllCoreThreads}.
Creating new threads
New threads are created using a {@link java.util.concurrent.ThreadFactory}. If not otherwise specified, a {@link Executors#defaultThreadFactory} is used, that creates threads to all be in the same {@link ThreadGroup} and with the same NORM_PRIORITY priority and non-daemon status. By supplying a different ThreadFactory, you can alter the thread's name, thread group, priority, daemon status, etc.
Keep-alive times
If the pool currently has more than corePoolSize threads, excess threads will be terminated if they have been idle for more than the keepAliveTime (see {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#getKeepAliveTime}). This provides a means of reducing resource consumption when the pool is not being actively used. If the pool becomes more active later, new threads will be constructed. This parameter can also be changed dynamically using method {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#setKeepAliveTime}. Using a value of Long.MAX_VALUE TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS effectively disables idle threads from ever terminating prior to shut down.
Queuing
Any {@link BlockingQueue} may be used to transfer and hold submitted tasks. The use of this queue interacts with pool sizing:
  • If fewer than corePoolSize threads are running, the Executor always prefers adding a new thread rather than queuing.
  • If corePoolSize or more threads are running, the Executor always prefers queuing a request rather than adding a new thread.
  • If a request cannot be queued, a new thread is created unless this would exceed maximumPoolSize, in which case, the task will be rejected.
There are three general strategies for queuing:
  1. Direct handoffs. A good default choice for a work queue is a {@link SynchronousQueue} that hands off tasks to threads without otherwise holding them. Here, an attempt to queue a task will fail if no threads are immediately available to run it, so a new thread will be constructed. This policy avoids lockups when handling sets of requests that might have internal dependencies. Direct handoffs generally require unbounded maximumPoolSizes to avoid rejection of new submitted tasks. This in turn admits the possibility of unbounded thread growth when commands continue to arrive on average faster than they can be processed.
  2. Unbounded queues. Using an unbounded queue (for example a {@link LinkedBlockingQueue} without a predefined capacity) will cause new tasks to be queued in cases where all corePoolSize threads are busy. Thus, no more than corePoolSize threads will ever be created. (And the value of the maximumPoolSize therefore doesn't have any effect.) This may be appropriate when each task is completely independent of others, so tasks cannot affect each others execution; for example, in a web page server. While this style of queuing can be useful in smoothing out transient bursts of requests, it admits the possibility of unbounded work queue growth when commands continue to arrive on average faster than they can be processed.
  3. Bounded queues. A bounded queue (for example, an {@link ArrayBlockingQueue}) helps prevent resource exhaustion when used with finite maximumPoolSizes, but can be more difficult to tune and control. Queue sizes and maximum pool sizes may be traded off for each other: Using large queues and small pools minimizes CPU usage, OS resources, and context-switching overhead, but can lead to artificially low throughput. If tasks frequently block (for example if they are I/O bound), a system may be able to schedule time for more threads than you otherwise allow. Use of small queues generally requires larger pool sizes, which keeps CPUs busier but may encounter unacceptable scheduling overhead, which also decreases throughput.
Rejected tasks
New tasks submitted in method {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#execute} will be rejected when the Executor has been shut down, and also when the Executor uses finite bounds for both maximum threads and work queue capacity, and is saturated. In either case, the execute method invokes the {@link RejectedExecutionHandler#rejectedExecution} method of its {@link RejectedExecutionHandler}. Four predefined handler policies are provided:
  1. In the default {@link ThreadPoolExecutor.AbortPolicy}, the handler throws a runtime {@link RejectedExecutionException} upon rejection.
  2. In {@link ThreadPoolExecutor.CallerRunsPolicy}, the thread that invokes execute itself runs the task. This provides a simple feedback control mechanism that will slow down the rate that new tasks are submitted.
  3. In {@link ThreadPoolExecutor.DiscardPolicy}, a task that cannot be executed is simply dropped.
  4. In {@link ThreadPoolExecutor.DiscardOldestPolicy}, if the executor is not shut down, the task at the head of the work queue is dropped, and then execution is retried (which can fail again, causing this to be repeated.)
It is possible to define and use other kinds of {@link RejectedExecutionHandler} classes. Doing so requires some care especially when policies are designed to work only under particular capacity or queuing policies.
Hook methods
This class provides protected overridable {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#beforeExecute} and {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#afterExecute} methods that are called before and after execution of each task. These can be used to manipulate the execution environment, for example, reinitializing ThreadLocals, gathering statistics, or adding log entries. Additionally, method {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#terminated} can be overridden to perform any special processing that needs to be done once the Executor has fully terminated.
Queue maintenance
Method {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#getQueue} allows access to the work queue for purposes of monitoring and debugging. Use of this method for any other purpose is strongly discouraged. Two supplied methods, {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#remove} and {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#purge} are available to assist in storage reclamation when large numbers of queued tasks become cancelled.

Extension example. Most extensions of this class override one or more of the protected hook methods. For example, here is a subclass that adds a simple pause/resume feature:

class PausableThreadPoolExecutor extends ThreadPoolExecutor {
private boolean isPaused;
private ReentrantLock pauseLock = new ReentrantLock();
private Condition unpaused = pauseLock.newCondition();

public PausableThreadPoolExecutor(...) { super(...); }

protected void beforeExecute(Thread t, Runnable r) {
super.beforeExecute(t, r);
pauseLock.lock();
try {
while (isPaused) unpaused.await();
} catch(InterruptedException ie) {
t.interrupt();
} finally {
pauseLock.unlock();
}
}

public void pause() {
pauseLock.lock();
try {
isPaused = true;
} finally {
pauseLock.unlock();
}
}

public void resume() {
pauseLock.lock();
try {
isPaused = false;
unpaused.signalAll();
} finally {
pauseLock.unlock();
}
}
}

r the task that will be executed.

 
public voidexecute(java.lang.Runnable command)
Executes the given task sometime in the future. The task may execute in a new thread or in an existing pooled thread.

public java.util.concurrent.ThreadFactorygetThreadFactory()
Returns the thread factory used to create new threads.

return
the current thread factory
see
#setThreadFactory

        return threadFactory;
    
voidinterruptIdleWorkers()
Wake up all threads that might be waiting for tasks.

        final ReentrantLock mainLock = this.mainLock;
        mainLock.lock();
        try {
            for (Worker w : workers)
                w.interruptIfIdle();
        } finally {
            mainLock.unlock();
        }
    
public booleanisShutdown()

        return runState != RUNNING;
    
public booleanisTerminated()

        return runState == TERMINATED;
    
public booleanisTerminating()
Returns true if this executor is in the process of terminating after shutdown or shutdownNow but has not completely terminated. This method may be useful for debugging. A return of true reported a sufficient period after shutdown may indicate that submitted tasks have ignored or suppressed interruption, causing this executor not to properly terminate.

return
true if terminating but not yet terminated.

        return runState == STOP;
    
public intprestartAllCoreThreads()
Starts all core threads, causing them to idly wait for work. This overrides the default policy of starting core threads only when new tasks are executed.

return
the number of threads started.

        int n = 0;
        while (addIfUnderCorePoolSize(null))
            ++n;
        return n;
    
public booleanprestartCoreThread()
Starts a core thread, causing it to idly wait for work. This overrides the default policy of starting core threads only when new tasks are executed. This method will return false if all core threads have already been started.

return
true if a thread was started

        return addIfUnderCorePoolSize(null);
    
public voidpurge()
Tries to remove from the work queue all {@link Future} tasks that have been cancelled. This method can be useful as a storage reclamation operation, that has no other impact on functionality. Cancelled tasks are never executed, but may accumulate in work queues until worker threads can actively remove them. Invoking this method instead tries to remove them now. However, this method may fail to remove tasks in the presence of interference by other threads.

        // Fail if we encounter interference during traversal
        try {
            Iterator<Runnable> it = getQueue().iterator();
            while (it.hasNext()) {
                Runnable r = it.next();
                if (r instanceof Future<?>) {
                    Future<?> c = (Future<?>)r;
                    if (c.isCancelled())
                        it.remove();
                }
            }
        }
        catch(ConcurrentModificationException ex) {
            return; 
        }
    
voidreject(java.lang.Runnable command)
Invoke the rejected execution handler for the given command.


                  
       
        handler.rejectedExecution(command, this);
    
public booleanremove(java.lang.Runnable task)
Removes this task from the executor's internal queue if it is present, thus causing it not to be run if it has not already started.

This method may be useful as one part of a cancellation scheme. It may fail to remove tasks that have been converted into other forms before being placed on the internal queue. For example, a task entered using submit might be converted into a form that maintains Future status. However, in such cases, method {@link ThreadPoolExecutor#purge} may be used to remove those Futures that have been cancelled.

param
task the task to remove
return
true if the task was removed

        return getQueue().remove(task);
    
public voidsetCorePoolSize(int corePoolSize)
Sets the core number of threads. This overrides any value set in the constructor. If the new value is smaller than the current value, excess existing threads will be terminated when they next become idle. If larger, new threads will, if needed, be started to execute any queued tasks.

param
corePoolSize the new core size

        }
    
public voidsetKeepAliveTime(long time, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit unit)
Sets the time limit for which threads may remain idle before being terminated. If there are more than the core number of threads currently in the pool, after waiting this amount of time without processing a task, excess threads will be terminated. This overrides any value set in the constructor.

param
time the time to wait. A time value of zero will cause excess threads to terminate immediately after executing tasks.
param
unit the time unit of the time argument
throws
IllegalArgumentException if time less than zero

public voidsetMaximumPoolSize(int maximumPoolSize)
Sets the maximum allowed number of threads. This overrides any value set in the constructor. If the new value is smaller than the current value, excess existing threads will be terminated when they next become idle.

param
maximumPoolSize the new maximum
throws
IllegalArgumentException if maximumPoolSize less than zero or the {@link #getCorePoolSize core pool size}
see
#getMaximumPoolSize

public voidsetRejectedExecutionHandler(java.util.concurrent.RejectedExecutionHandler handler)
Sets a new handler for unexecutable tasks.

param

public voidsetThreadFactory(java.util.concurrent.ThreadFactory threadFactory)
Sets the thread factory used to create new threads.

public voidshutdown()
Initiates an orderly shutdown in which previously submitted tasks are executed, but no new tasks will be accepted. Invocation has no additional effect if already shut down.

throws

public java.util.ListshutdownNow()
Attempts to stop all actively executing tasks, halts the processing of waiting tasks, and returns a list of the tasks that were awaiting execution.

This implementation cancels tasks via {@link Thread#interrupt}, so if any tasks mask or fail to respond to interrupts, they may never terminate.
