Java多线程与并发编程实践学习总结---提高篇
一般创建线程的2种方式,一种是直接继承Thread,另外一种就是实现Runnable接口。
这2种方式都有一个缺陷就是:在执行完任务之后无法获取执行结果。
如果需要获取执行结果,就必须通过共享变量或者使用线程通信的方式来达到效果,这样使用起来就比较麻烦。
而自从Java 1.5开始,就提供了Callable和Future,通过它们可以在任务执行完毕之后得到任务执行结果。
Callable
先说一下java.lang.Runnable吧,它是一个接口,在它里面只声明了一个run()方法:
1
2
3
|
public
interface
Runnable {
public
abstract
void
run();
}
|
由于run()方法返回值为void类型,所以在执行完任务之后无法返回任何结果。
Callable位于java.util.concurrent包下,它也是一个接口,在它里面也只声明了一个方法,只不过这个方法叫做call():
1
2
3
4
5
6
7

|
public
interface
Callable<V> {
/**
* Computes a result, or throws an exception if unable to do so.
*
* @return computed result
* @throws Exception if unable to compute a result
*/
V call()
throws
Exception;
}
|
可以看到,这是一个泛型接口,call()函数返回的类型就是传递进来的V类型。
那么怎么使用Callable呢?一般情况下是配合ExecutorService来使用的,在ExecutorService接口中声明了若干个submit方法的重载版本:
1
2
3
|
<T> Future<T> submit(Callable<T> task);
<T> Future<T> submit(Runnable task, T result);
Future<?> submit(Runnable task);
|
第一个submit方法里面的参数类型就是Callable。
Callable一般是和ExecutorService配合来使用的。
一般情况下我们使用第一个submit方法和第三个submit方法,第二个submit方法很少使用。
Future
Future就是对于具体的Runnable或者Callable任务的执行结果进行取消、查询是否完成、获取结果。必要时可以通过get方法获取执行结果,该方法会阻塞直到任务返回结果。
Future类位于java.util.concurrent包下,它是一个接口:
1
2

public
interface
Future<V> {
boolean
cancel(
boolean
mayInterruptIfRunning);
boolean
isCancelled();
boolean
isDone();
V get()
throws
InterruptedException, ExecutionException;
V get(
long
timeout, TimeUnit unit)
throws
InterruptedException, ExecutionException, TimeoutException;
}
|
在Future接口中声明了5个方法,下面依次解释每个方法的作用:
- cancel方法用来取消任务,如果取消任务成功则返回true,如果取消任务失败则返回false。参数mayInterruptIfRunning表示是否允许取消正在执行却没有执行完毕的任务,如果设置true,则表示可以取消正在执行过程中的任务。如果任务已经完成,则无论mayInterruptIfRunning为true还是false,此方法肯定返回false,即如果取消已经完成的任务会返回false;如果任务正在执行,若mayInterruptIfRunning设置为true,则返回true,若mayInterruptIfRunning设置为false,则返回false;如果任务还没有执行,则无论mayInterruptIfRunning为true还是false,肯定返回true。
- isCancelled方法表示任务是否被取消成功,如果在任务正常完成前被取消成功,则返回 true。
- isDone方法表示任务是否已经完成,若任务完成,则返回true;
- get()方法用来获取执行结果,这个方法会产生阻塞,会一直等到任务执行完毕才返回;
- get(long timeout, TimeUnit unit)用来获取执行结果,如果在指定时间内,还没获取到结果,就直接返回null。
也就是说Future提供了三种功能:
1)判断任务是否完成;
2)能够中断任务;
3)能够获取任务执行结果。
因为Future只是一个接口,所以是无法直接用来创建对象使用的,因此就有了下面的FutureTask。
FutureTask
我们先来看一下FutureTask的实现:
1
|
public
class
FutureTask<V>
implements
RunnableFuture<V>
|
FutureTask类实现了RunnableFuture接口,我们看一下RunnableFuture接口的实现:
1
2
3
|
public
interface
RunnableFuture<V>
extends
Runnable, Future<V> {
void
run();
}
|
可以看出RunnableFuture继承了Runnable接口和Future接口,而FutureTask实现了RunnableFuture接口。所以它既可以作为Runnable被线程执行,又可以作为Future得到Callable的返回值。
FutureTask提供了2个构造器:
1
2
3
4
|
public
FutureTask(Callable<V> callable) {
}
public
FutureTask(Runnable runnable, V result) {
}
|
事实上,FutureTask是Future接口的一个唯一实现类。
HandlerThread 之于Thread区别
HandlerThread继承于Thread,所以它本质就是个Thread。与普通Thread的差别就在于,它有个Looper成员变量。这个Looper其实就是对消息队列以及队列处理逻辑的封装,简单说就是 消息队列+消息循环。
