*** ** * ** *** An `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ExecutorService` for running `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinTask`s. A `ForkJoinPool` provides the entry point for submissions from non-`ForkJoinTask` clients, as well as management and monitoring operations. A `ForkJoinPool` differs from other kinds of `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ExecutorService` mainly by virtue of employing *work-stealing* : all threads in the pool attempt to find and execute tasks submitted to the pool and/or created by other active tasks (eventually blocking waiting for work if none exist). This enables efficient processing when most tasks spawn other subtasks (as do most `ForkJoinTask`s), as well as when many small tasks are submitted to the pool from external clients. Especially when setting *asyncMode* to true in constructors, `ForkJoinPool`s may also be appropriate for use with event-style tasks that are never joined. All worker threads are initialized with `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Thread#isDaemon()` set `true`. A static `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#commonPool()` is available and appropriate for most applications. The common pool is used by any ForkJoinTask that is not explicitly submitted to a specified pool. Using the common pool normally reduces resource usage (its threads are slowly reclaimed during periods of non-use, and reinstated upon subsequent use). For applications that require separate or custom pools, a `ForkJoinPool` may be constructed with a given target parallelism level; by default, equal to the number of available processors. The pool attempts to maintain enough active (or available) threads by dynamically adding, suspending, or resuming internal worker threads, even if some tasks are stalled waiting to join others. However, no such adjustments are guaranteed in the face of blocked I/O or other unmanaged synchronization. The nested `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool.ManagedBlocker` interface enables extension of the kinds of synchronization accommodated. The default policies may be overridden using a constructor with parameters corresponding to those documented in class `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ThreadPoolExecutor`. In addition to execution and lifecycle control methods, this class provides status check methods (for example `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#getStealCount()`) that are intended to aid in developing, tuning, and monitoring fork/join applications. Also, method `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#toString()` returns indications of pool state in a convenient form for informal monitoring. As is the case with other ExecutorServices, there are three main task execution methods summarized in the following table. These are designed to be used primarily by clients not already engaged in fork/join computations in the current pool. The main forms of these methods accept instances of `ForkJoinTask`, but overloaded forms also allow mixed execution of plain `Runnable`- or `Callable`- based activities as well. However, tasks that are already executing in a pool should normally instead use the within-computation forms listed in the table unless using async event-style tasks that are not usually joined, in which case there is little difference among choice of methods. |---|---|---| | | Call from non-fork/join clients | Call from within fork/join computations | [Summary of task execution methods] The parameters used to construct the common pool may be controlled by setting the following [system properties](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/System#getProperty(java.lang.String)): - `java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.common.parallelism` - the parallelism level, a non-negative integer - `java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.common.threadFactory` - the class name of a `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory`. The [system class loader](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/ClassLoader#getSystemClassLoader()) is used to load this class. - `java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.common.exceptionHandler` - the class name of a `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler`. The [system class loader](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/ClassLoader#getSystemClassLoader()) is used to load this class. - `java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.common.maximumSpares` - the maximum number of allowed extra threads to maintain target parallelism (default 256). If no thread factory is supplied via a system property, then the common pool uses a factory that uses the system class loader as the [thread context class loader](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Thread#getContextClassLoader()). In addition, if a `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/SecurityManager` is present, then the common pool uses a factory supplying threads that have no `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/security/Permissions` enabled, and are not guaranteed to preserve the values of `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/ThreadLocal` variables across tasks. Upon any error in establishing these settings, default parameters are used. It is possible to disable or limit the use of threads in the common pool by setting the parallelism property to zero, and/or using a factory that may return `null`. However doing so may cause unjoined tasks to never be executed.

final ForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory defaultForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory ``` Creates a new ForkJoinWorkerThread. This factory is used unless overridden in ForkJoinPool constructors.
## Public constructors ### ForkJoinPool Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public ForkJoinPool () ``` Creates a `ForkJoinPool` with parallelism equal to `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Runtime#availableProcessors()`, using defaults for all other parameters (see `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#ForkJoinPool(int,%20java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory,%20java.lang.Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler,%20boolean,%20int,%20int,%20int,%20java.util.function.Predicate,%20long,%20java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit)`).
| Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/SecurityException` | if a security manager exists and the caller is not permitted to modify threads because it does not hold `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/RuntimePermission``("modifyThread")` | ### ForkJoinPool Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public ForkJoinPool (int parallelism) ``` Creates a `ForkJoinPool` with the indicated parallelism level, using defaults for all other parameters (see `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#ForkJoinPool(int,%20java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory,%20java.lang.Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler,%20boolean,%20int,%20int,%20int,%20java.util.function.Predicate,%20long,%20java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit)`).
| Parameters || |---|---| | `parallelism` | `int`: the parallelism level
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/IllegalArgumentException` | if parallelism less than or equal to zero, or greater than implementation limit | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/SecurityException` | if a security manager exists and the caller is not permitted to modify threads because it does not hold `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/RuntimePermission``("modifyThread")` | ### ForkJoinPool Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public ForkJoinPool (int parallelism, ForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory factory, Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler handler, boolean asyncMode) ``` Creates a `ForkJoinPool` with the given parameters (using defaults for others -- see `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#ForkJoinPool(int,%20java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory,%20java.lang.Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler,%20boolean,%20int,%20int,%20int,%20java.util.function.Predicate,%20long,%20java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit)`).
| Parameters || |---|---| | `parallelism` | `int`: the parallelism level. For default value, use `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Runtime#availableProcessors()`.
| | `factory` | `ForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory`: the factory for creating new threads. For default value, use `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#defaultForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory`.
| | `handler` | `Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler`: the handler for internal worker threads that terminate due to unrecoverable errors encountered while executing tasks. For default value, use `null`.
| | `asyncMode` | `boolean`: if true, establishes local first-in-first-out scheduling mode for forked tasks that are never joined. This mode may be more appropriate than default locally stack-based mode in applications in which worker threads only process event-style asynchronous tasks. For default value, use `false`.
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/IllegalArgumentException` | if parallelism less than or equal to zero, or greater than implementation limit | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException` | if the factory is null | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/SecurityException` | if a security manager exists and the caller is not permitted to modify threads because it does not hold `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/RuntimePermission``("modifyThread")` | ### ForkJoinPool Added in [API level 33](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public ForkJoinPool (int parallelism, ForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory factory, Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler handler, boolean asyncMode, int corePoolSize, int maximumPoolSize, int minimumRunnable, Predicate saturate, long keepAliveTime, TimeUnit unit) ``` Creates a `ForkJoinPool` with the given parameters.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `parallelism` | `int`: the parallelism level. For default value, use `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Runtime#availableProcessors()`.
| | `factory` | `ForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory`: the factory for creating new threads. For default value, use `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#defaultForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory`.
| | `handler` | `Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler`: the handler for internal worker threads that terminate due to unrecoverable errors encountered while executing tasks. For default value, use `null`.
| | `asyncMode` | `boolean`: if true, establishes local first-in-first-out scheduling mode for forked tasks that are never joined. This mode may be more appropriate than default locally stack-based mode in applications in which worker threads only process event-style asynchronous tasks. For default value, use `false`.
| | `corePoolSize` | `int`: the number of threads to keep in the pool (unless timed out after an elapsed keep-alive). Normally (and by default) this is the same value as the parallelism level, but may be set to a larger value to reduce dynamic overhead if tasks regularly block. Using a smaller value (for example `0`) has the same effect as the default.
| | `maximumPoolSize` | `int`: the maximum number of threads allowed. When the maximum is reached, attempts to replace blocked threads fail. (However, because creation and termination of different threads may overlap, and may be managed by the given thread factory, this value may be transiently exceeded.) To arrange the same value as is used by default for the common pool, use `256` plus the `parallelism` level. (By default, the common pool allows a maximum of 256 spare threads.) Using a value (for example `Integer.MAX_VALUE`) larger than the implementation's total thread limit has the same effect as using this limit (which is the default).
| | `minimumRunnable` | `int`: the minimum allowed number of core threads not blocked by a join or `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool.ManagedBlocker`. To ensure progress, when too few unblocked threads exist and unexecuted tasks may exist, new threads are constructed, up to the given maximumPoolSize. For the default value, use `1`, that ensures liveness. A larger value might improve throughput in the presence of blocked activities, but might not, due to increased overhead. A value of zero may be acceptable when submitted tasks cannot have dependencies requiring additional threads.
| | `saturate` | `Predicate`: if non-null, a predicate invoked upon attempts to create more than the maximum total allowed threads. By default, when a thread is about to block on a join or `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool.ManagedBlocker`, but cannot be replaced because the maximumPoolSize would be exceeded, a `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RejectedExecutionException` is thrown. But if this predicate returns `true`, then no exception is thrown, so the pool continues to operate with fewer than the target number of runnable threads, which might not ensure progress.
| | `keepAliveTime` | `long`: the elapsed time since last use before a thread is terminated (and then later replaced if needed). For the default value, use `60, TimeUnit.SECONDS`.
| | `unit` | `TimeUnit`: the time unit for the `keepAliveTime` argument
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/IllegalArgumentException` | if parallelism is less than or equal to zero, or is greater than implementation limit, or if maximumPoolSize is less than parallelism, of if the keepAliveTime is less than or equal to zero. | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException` | if the factory is null | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/SecurityException` | if a security manager exists and the caller is not permitted to modify threads because it does not hold `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/RuntimePermission``("modifyThread")` | ## Public methods ### awaitQuiescence Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public boolean awaitQuiescence (long timeout, TimeUnit unit) ``` If called by a ForkJoinTask operating in this pool, equivalent in effect to `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinTask#helpQuiesce()`. Otherwise, waits and/or attempts to assist performing tasks until this pool `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#isQuiescent()` or the indicated timeout elapses.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `timeout` | `long`: the maximum time to wait
| | `unit` | `TimeUnit`: the time unit of the timeout argument
| | Returns || |---|---| | `boolean` | `true` if quiescent; `false` if the timeout elapsed.
| ### awaitTermination Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public boolean awaitTermination (long timeout, TimeUnit unit) ``` Blocks until all tasks have completed execution after a shutdown request, or the timeout occurs, or the current thread is interrupted, whichever happens first. Because the `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#commonPool()` never terminates until program shutdown, when applied to the common pool, this method is equivalent to `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#awaitQuiescence(long,%20java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit)` but always returns `false`.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `timeout` | `long`: the maximum time to wait
| | `unit` | `TimeUnit`: the time unit of the timeout argument
| | Returns || |---|---| | `boolean` | `true` if this executor terminated and `false` if the timeout elapsed before termination
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/InterruptedException` | if interrupted while waiting | ### close Added in [API level 36](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public void close () ``` Unless this is the `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#commonPool()`, initiates an orderly shutdown in which previously submitted tasks are executed, but no new tasks will be accepted, and waits until all tasks have completed execution and the executor has terminated. If already terminated, or this is the `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#commonPool()`, this method has no effect on execution, and does not wait. Otherwise, if interrupted while waiting, this method stops all executing tasks as if by invoking `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#shutdownNow()`. It then continues to wait until all actively executing tasks have completed. Tasks that were awaiting execution are not executed. The interrupt status will be re-asserted before this method returns.
| Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/SecurityException` | if a security manager exists and shutting down this ExecutorService may manipulate threads that the caller is not permitted to modify because it does not hold `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/RuntimePermission``("modifyThread")`, or the security manager's `checkAccess` method denies access. | ### commonPool Added in [API level 24](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public static ForkJoinPool commonPool () ``` Returns the common pool instance. This pool is statically constructed; its run state is unaffected by attempts to `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#shutdown()` or `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#shutdownNow()`. However this pool and any ongoing processing are automatically terminated upon program `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/System#exit(int)`. Any program that relies on asynchronous task processing to complete before program termination should invoke `commonPool().``https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#awaitQuiescence(long,%20java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit)`, before exit.
| Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool` | the common pool instance
| ### execute Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public void execute (Runnable task) ```

| Parameters || |---|---| | `task` | `Runnable`
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException` | if the task is null | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RejectedExecutionException` | if the task cannot be scheduled for execution | ### execute Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public void execute (ForkJoinTask task) ``` Arranges for (asynchronous) execution of the given task.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `task` | `ForkJoinTask`: the task
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException` | if the task is null | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RejectedExecutionException` | if the task cannot be scheduled for execution | ### externalSubmit Added in [API level 36](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public ForkJoinTask externalSubmit (ForkJoinTask task) ``` Submits the given task as if submitted from a non-`ForkJoinTask` client. The task is added to a scheduling queue for submissions to the pool even when called from a thread in the pool.
##### Implementation Requirements: - This method is equivalent to `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#submit(java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinTask)` when called from a thread that is not in this pool. | Parameters || |---|---| | `task` | `ForkJoinTask`: the task to submit
| | Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinTask` | the task
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException` | if the task is null | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RejectedExecutionException` | if the task cannot be scheduled for execution | ### getActiveThreadCount Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public int getActiveThreadCount () ``` Returns an estimate of the number of threads that are currently stealing or executing tasks. This method may overestimate the number of active threads.
| Returns || |---|---| | `int` | the number of active threads
| ### getAsyncMode Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public boolean getAsyncMode () ``` Returns `true` if this pool uses local first-in-first-out scheduling mode for forked tasks that are never joined.
| Returns || |---|---| | `boolean` | `true` if this pool uses async mode
| ### getCommonPoolParallelism Added in [API level 24](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public static int getCommonPoolParallelism () ``` Returns the targeted parallelism level of the common pool.
| Returns || |---|---| | `int` | the targeted parallelism level of the common pool
| ### getFactory Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public ForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory getFactory () ``` Returns the factory used for constructing new workers.
| Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory` | the factory used for constructing new workers
| ### getParallelism Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public int getParallelism () ``` Returns the targeted parallelism level of this pool.
| Returns || |---|---| | `int` | the targeted parallelism level of this pool
| ### getPoolSize Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public int getPoolSize () ``` Returns the number of worker threads that have started but not yet terminated. The result returned by this method may differ from `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#getParallelism()` when threads are created to maintain parallelism when others are cooperatively blocked.
| Returns || |---|---| | `int` | the number of worker threads
| ### getQueuedSubmissionCount Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public int getQueuedSubmissionCount () ``` Returns an estimate of the number of tasks submitted to this pool that have not yet begun executing. This method may take time proportional to the number of submissions.
| Returns || |---|---| | `int` | the number of queued submissions
| ### getQueuedTaskCount Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public long getQueuedTaskCount () ``` Returns an estimate of the total number of tasks currently held in queues by worker threads (but not including tasks submitted to the pool that have not begun executing). This value is only an approximation, obtained by iterating across all threads in the pool. This method may be useful for tuning task granularities.
| Returns || |---|---| | `long` | the number of queued tasks
| **See also:** - `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinWorkerThread#getQueuedTaskCount()` ### getRunningThreadCount Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public int getRunningThreadCount () ``` Returns an estimate of the number of worker threads that are not blocked waiting to join tasks or for other managed synchronization. This method may overestimate the number of running threads.
| Returns || |---|---| | `int` | the number of worker threads
| ### getStealCount Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public long getStealCount () ``` Returns an estimate of the total number of completed tasks that were executed by a thread other than their submitter. The reported value underestimates the actual total number of steals when the pool is not quiescent. This value may be useful for monitoring and tuning fork/join programs: in general, steal counts should be high enough to keep threads busy, but low enough to avoid overhead and contention across threads.
| Returns || |---|---| | `long` | the number of steals
| ### getUncaughtExceptionHandler Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler getUncaughtExceptionHandler () ``` Returns the handler for internal worker threads that terminate due to unrecoverable errors encountered while executing tasks.
| Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler` | the handler, or `null` if none

| Returns || |---|---| | `boolean` | `true` if there are any queued submissions
| ### invoke Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public T invoke (ForkJoinTask task) ``` Performs the given task, returning its result upon completion. If the computation encounters an unchecked Exception or Error, it is rethrown as the outcome of this invocation. Rethrown exceptions behave in the same way as regular exceptions, but, when possible, contain stack traces (as displayed for example using `ex.printStackTrace()`) of both the current thread as well as the thread actually encountering the exception; minimally only the latter.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `task` | `ForkJoinTask`: the task
| | Returns || |---|---| | `T` | the task's result
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException` | if the task is null | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RejectedExecutionException` | if the task cannot be scheduled for execution | ### invokeAll Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public List> invokeAll (Collection> tasks, long timeout, TimeUnit unit) ``` Executes the given tasks, returning a list of Futures holding their status and results when all complete or the timeout expires, whichever happens first. `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/Future#isDone()` is `true` for each element of the returned list. Upon return, tasks that have not completed are cancelled. Note that a *completed* task could have terminated either normally or by throwing an exception. The results of this method are undefined if the given collection is modified while this operation is in progress.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `tasks` | `Collection`: the collection of tasks
| | `timeout` | `long`: the maximum time to wait
| | `unit` | `TimeUnit`: the time unit of the timeout argument
| | Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/List>` | a list of Futures representing the tasks, in the same sequential order as produced by the iterator for the given task list. If the operation did not time out, each task will have completed. If it did time out, some of these tasks will not have completed.
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/InterruptedException` | | ### invokeAll Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public List> invokeAll (Collection> tasks) ``` Executes the given tasks, returning a list of Futures holding their status and results when all complete. `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/Future#isDone()` is `true` for each element of the returned list. Note that a *completed* task could have terminated either normally or by throwing an exception. The results of this method are undefined if the given collection is modified while this operation is in progress.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `tasks` | `Collection`: the collection of tasks
| | Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/List>` | a list of Futures representing the tasks, in the same sequential order as produced by the iterator for the given task list, each of which has completed
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException` | | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RejectedExecutionException` | | ### invokeAny Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public T invokeAny (Collection> tasks) ``` Executes the given tasks, returning the result of one that has completed successfully (i.e., without throwing an exception), if any do. Upon normal or exceptional return, tasks that have not completed are cancelled. The results of this method are undefined if the given collection is modified while this operation is in progress.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `tasks` | `Collection`: the collection of tasks
| | Returns || |---|---| | `T` | the result returned by one of the tasks
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ExecutionException` | | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/InterruptedException` | | ### invokeAny Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public T invokeAny (Collection> tasks, long timeout, TimeUnit unit) ``` Executes the given tasks, returning the result of one that has completed successfully (i.e., without throwing an exception), if any do before the given timeout elapses. Upon normal or exceptional return, tasks that have not completed are cancelled. The results of this method are undefined if the given collection is modified while this operation is in progress.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `tasks` | `Collection`: the collection of tasks
| | `timeout` | `long`: the maximum time to wait
| | `unit` | `TimeUnit`: the time unit of the timeout argument
| | Returns || |---|---| | `T` | the result returned by one of the tasks
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ExecutionException` | | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/InterruptedException` | | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/TimeoutException` | | ### isQuiescent Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public boolean isQuiescent () ``` Returns `true` if all worker threads are currently idle. An idle worker is one that cannot obtain a task to execute because none are available to steal from other threads, and there are no pending submissions to the pool. This method is conservative; it might not return `true` immediately upon idleness of all threads, but will eventually become true if threads remain inactive.
| Returns || |---|---| | `boolean` | `true` if all threads are currently idle
| ### isShutdown Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public boolean isShutdown () ``` Returns `true` if this pool has been shut down.
| Returns || |---|---| | `boolean` | `true` if this pool has been shut down
| ### isTerminated Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public boolean isTerminated () ``` Returns `true` if all tasks have completed following shut down.
| Returns || |---|---| | `boolean` | `true` if all tasks have completed following shut down
| ### isTerminating Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public boolean isTerminating () ``` Returns `true` if the process of termination has commenced but not yet completed. 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, or are waiting for I/O, causing this executor not to properly terminate. (See the advisory notes for class `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinTask` stating that tasks should not normally entail blocking operations. But if they do, they must abort them on interrupt.)
| Returns || |---|---| | `boolean` | `true` if terminating but not yet terminated
| ### lazySubmit Added in [API level 36](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public ForkJoinTask lazySubmit (ForkJoinTask task) ``` Submits the given task without guaranteeing that it will eventually execute in the absence of available active threads. In some contexts, this method may reduce contention and overhead by relying on context-specific knowledge that existing threads (possibly including the calling thread if operating in this pool) will eventually be available to execute the task.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `task` | `ForkJoinTask`: the task
| | Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinTask` | the task
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException` | if the task is null | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RejectedExecutionException` | if the task cannot be scheduled for execution | ### managedBlock Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public static void managedBlock (ForkJoinPool.ManagedBlocker blocker) ``` Runs the given possibly blocking task. When [running in a ForkJoinPool](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinTask#inForkJoinPool()), this method possibly arranges for a spare thread to be activated if necessary to ensure sufficient parallelism while the current thread is blocked in `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool.ManagedBlocker#block()`. This method repeatedly calls `blocker.isReleasable()` and `blocker.block()` until either method returns `true`. Every call to `blocker.block()` is preceded by a call to `blocker.isReleasable()` that returned `false`. If not running in a ForkJoinPool, this method is behaviorally equivalent to while (!blocker.isReleasable()) if (blocker.block()) break; If running in a ForkJoinPool, the pool may first be expanded to ensure sufficient parallelism available during the call to `blocker.block()`.

| Parameters || |---|---| | `blocker` | `ForkJoinPool.ManagedBlocker`: the blocker task
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/InterruptedException` | if `blocker.block()` did so | ### setParallelism Added in [API level 36](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public int setParallelism (int size) ``` Changes the target parallelism of this pool, controlling the future creation, use, and termination of worker threads. Applications include contexts in which the number of available processors changes over time.
##### Implementation Note: - This implementation restricts the maximum number of running threads to 32767 | Parameters || |---|---| | `size` | `int`: the target parallelism level
| | Returns || |---|---| | `int` | the previous parallelism level.
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/IllegalArgumentException` | if size is less than 1 or greater than the maximum supported by this pool. | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/SecurityException` | if a security manager exists and the caller is not permitted to modify threads because it does not hold `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/RuntimePermission``("modifyThread")` | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/UnsupportedOperationException` | this is the`https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#commonPool()` and parallelism level was set by System property {@systemProperty java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.common.parallelism}. | ### shutdown Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public void shutdown () ``` Possibly initiates an orderly shutdown in which previously submitted tasks are executed, but no new tasks will be accepted. Invocation has no effect on execution state if this is the `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#commonPool()`, and no additional effect if already shut down. Tasks that are in the process of being submitted concurrently during the course of this method may or may not be rejected.
| Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/SecurityException` | if a security manager exists and the caller is not permitted to modify threads because it does not hold `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/RuntimePermission``("modifyThread")` | ### shutdownNow Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public List shutdownNow () ``` Possibly attempts to cancel and/or stop all tasks, and reject all subsequently submitted tasks. Invocation has no effect on execution state if this is the `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#commonPool()`, and no additional effect if already shut down. Otherwise, tasks that are in the process of being submitted or executed concurrently during the course of this method may or may not be rejected. This method cancels both existing and unexecuted tasks, in order to permit termination in the presence of task dependencies. So the method always returns an empty list (unlike the case for some other Executors).
| Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/List` | an empty list
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/SecurityException` | if a security manager exists and the caller is not permitted to modify threads because it does not hold `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/RuntimePermission``("modifyThread")` | ### submit Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public ForkJoinTask submit (Callable task) ``` Submits a value-returning task for execution and returns a Future representing the pending results of the task. The Future's `get` method will return the task's result upon successful completion. If you would like to immediately block waiting for a task, you can use constructions of the form `result = exec.submit(aCallable).get();` Note: The `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/Executors` class includes a set of methods that can convert some other common closure-like objects, for example, `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/security/PrivilegedAction` to `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/Callable` form so they can be submitted.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `task` | `Callable`: the task to submit
| | Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinTask` | a Future representing pending completion of the task
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException` | if the task is null | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RejectedExecutionException` | if the task cannot be scheduled for execution | ### submit Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public ForkJoinTask submit (ForkJoinTask task) ``` Submits a ForkJoinTask for execution.
##### Implementation Requirements: - This method is equivalent to `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinPool#externalSubmit(java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinTask)` when called from a thread that is not in this pool. | Parameters || |---|---| | `task` | `ForkJoinTask`: the task to submit
| | Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinTask` | the task
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException` | if the task is null | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RejectedExecutionException` | if the task cannot be scheduled for execution | ### submit Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public ForkJoinTask submit (Runnable task) ``` Submits a Runnable task for execution and returns a Future representing that task. The Future's `get` method will return `null` upon *successful* completion.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `task` | `Runnable`: the task to submit
| | Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinTask` | a Future representing pending completion of the task
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException` | if the task is null | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RejectedExecutionException` | if the task cannot be scheduled for execution | ### submit Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public ForkJoinTask submit (Runnable task, T result) ``` Submits a Runnable task for execution and returns a Future representing that task. The Future's `get` method will return the given result upon successful completion.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `task` | `Runnable`: the task to submit
| | `result` | `T`: the result to return
| | Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinTask` | a Future representing pending completion of the task
| | Throws || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/NullPointerException` | if the task is null | | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RejectedExecutionException` | if the task cannot be scheduled for execution | ### toString Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` public String toString () ``` Returns a string identifying this pool, as well as its state, including indications of run state, parallelism level, and worker and task counts.
| Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/String` | a string identifying this pool, as well as its state
| ## Protected methods ### drainTasksTo Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` protected int drainTasksTo (Collection> c) ``` Removes all available unexecuted submitted and forked tasks from scheduling queues and adds them to the given collection, without altering their execution status. These may include artificially generated or wrapped tasks. This method is designed to be invoked only when the pool is known to be quiescent. Invocations at other times may not remove all tasks. A failure encountered while attempting to add elements to collection `c` may result in elements being in neither, either or both collections when the associated exception is thrown. The behavior of this operation is undefined if the specified collection is modified while the operation is in progress.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `c` | `Collection`: the collection to transfer elements into
| | Returns || |---|---| | `int` | the number of elements transferred
| ### newTaskFor Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` protected RunnableFuture newTaskFor (Runnable runnable, T value) ``` Returns a `RunnableFuture` for the given runnable and default value.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `runnable` | `Runnable`: the runnable task being wrapped
| | `value` | `T`: the default value for the returned future
| | Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RunnableFuture` | a `RunnableFuture` which, when run, will run the underlying runnable and which, as a `Future`, will yield the given value as its result and provide for cancellation of the underlying task
| ### newTaskFor Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` protected RunnableFuture newTaskFor (Callable callable) ``` Returns a `RunnableFuture` for the given callable task.
| Parameters || |---|---| | `callable` | `Callable`: the callable task being wrapped
| | Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/RunnableFuture` | a `RunnableFuture` which, when run, will call the underlying callable and which, as a `Future`, will yield the callable's result as its result and provide for cancellation of the underlying task
| ### pollSubmission Added in [API level 21](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels) ``` protected ForkJoinTask pollSubmission () ``` Removes and returns the next unexecuted submission if one is available. This method may be useful in extensions to this class that re-assign work in systems with multiple pools.
| Returns || |---|---| | `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/concurrent/ForkJoinTask` | the next submission, or `null` if none
