Method Detail

submit

@NotNull
<T> @NotNull Future<T> submit(@NotNull
                                       @NotNull Callable<T> 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 Executors class includes a set of methods that can convert some other common closure-like objects, for example, PrivilegedAction to Callable form so they can be submitted.

T - the type of the task's result

Parameters:

task - the task to submit

Returns:

a Future representing pending completion of the task

Throws:

RejectedExecutionException - if the task cannot be scheduled for execution
