Static utility methods pertaining to the Future interface.

Many of these methods use the ListenableFuture API; consult the Guava User Guide article on ListenableFuture.

The main purpose of ListenableFuture is to help you chain together a graph of asynchronous operations. You can chain them together manually with calls to methods like Futures.transform, but you will often find it easier to use a framework. Frameworks automate the process, often adding features like monitoring, debugging, and cancellation. Examples of frameworks include:

If you do chain your operations manually, you may want to use FluentFuture.

@Beta @GwtCompatible(emulated = true) public final class Futures extends GwtFuturesCatchingSpecialization { // A note on memory visibility. // Many of the utilities in this class (transform, withFallback, withTimeout, asList, combine) // have two requirements that significantly complicate their design. // 1. Cancellation should propagate from the returned future to the input future(s). // 2. The returned futures shouldn't unnecessarily 'pin' their inputs after completion. // // A consequence of these requirements is that the delegate futures cannot be stored in // final fields. // // For simplicity the rest of this description will discuss Futures.catching since it is the // simplest instance, though very similar descriptions apply to many other classes in this file. // // In the constructor of AbstractCatchingFuture, the delegate future is assigned to a field // 'inputFuture'. That field is non-final and non-volatile. There are 2 places where the // 'inputFuture' field is read and where we will have to consider visibility of the write // operation in the constructor. // // 1. In the listener that performs the callback. In this case it is fine since inputFuture is // assigned prior to calling addListener, and addListener happens-before any invocation of the // listener. Notably, this means that 'volatile' is unnecessary to make 'inputFuture' visible // to the listener. // // 2. In done() where we may propagate cancellation to the input. In this case it is _not_ fine. // There is currently nothing that enforces that the write to inputFuture in the constructor is // visible to done(). This is because there is no happens before edge between the write and a // (hypothetical) unsafe read by our caller. Note: adding 'volatile' does not fix this issue, // it would just add an edge such that if done() observed non-null, then it would also // definitely observe all earlier writes, but we still have no guarantee that done() would see // the inital write (just stronger guarantees if it does). // // See: http://cs.oswego.edu/pipermail/concurrency-interest/2015-January/013800.html // For a (long) discussion about this specific issue and the general futility of life. // // For the time being we are OK with the problem discussed above since it requires a caller to // introduce a very specific kind of data-race. And given the other operations performed by these // methods that involve volatile read/write operations, in practice there is no issue. Also, the // way in such a visibility issue would surface is most likely as a failure of cancel() to // propagate to the input. Cancellation propagation is fundamentally racy so this is fine. // // Future versions of the JMM may revise safe construction semantics in such a way that we can // safely publish these objects and we won't need this whole discussion. // TODO(user,lukes): consider adding volatile to all these fields since in current known JVMs // that should resolve the issue. This comes at the cost of adding more write barriers to the // implementations. private Futures() {}
Creates a CheckedFuture out of a normal ListenableFuture and a Function that maps from Exception instances into the appropriate checked type.

Warning: We recommend against using CheckedFuture in new projects. CheckedFuture is difficult to build libraries atop. CheckedFuture ports of methods like transformAsync have historically had bugs, and some of these bugs are necessary, unavoidable consequences of the CheckedFuture API. Additionally, CheckedFuture encourages users to take exceptions from one thread and rethrow them in another, producing confusing stack traces.

The given mapping function will be applied to an InterruptedException, a CancellationException, or an ExecutionException. See Future.get() for details on the exceptions thrown.

Since:9.0 (source-compatible since 1.0)
Deprecated:CheckedFuture cannot properly support the chained operations that are the primary goal of ListenableFuture. CheckedFuture also encourages users to rethrow exceptions from one thread in another thread, producing misleading stack traces. Additionally, it has a surprising policy about which exceptions to map and which to leave untouched. Guava users who want a CheckedFuture can fork the classes for their own use, possibly specializing them to the particular exception type they use. We recommend that most people use ListenableFuture and perform any exception wrapping themselves. This method is scheduled for removal from Guava in July 2018.

Returns a Future whose result is taken from the given primary input or, if the primary input fails with the given exceptionType, from the result provided by the fallback. Function.apply is not invoked until the primary input has failed, so if the primary input succeeds, it is never invoked. If, during the invocation of fallback, an exception is thrown, this exception is used as the result of the output Future.

This overload, which does not accept an executor, uses directExecutor, a dangerous choice in some cases. See the discussion in the ListenableFuture.addListener documentation. All its warnings about heavyweight listeners are also applicable to heavyweight functions passed to this method.

Params:

  • exceptionType – the exception type that triggers use of fallback. The exception type is matched against the input's exception. "The input's exception" means the cause of the ExecutionException thrown by input.get() or, if get() throws a different kind of exception, that exception itself. To avoid hiding bugs and other unrecoverable errors, callers should prefer more specific types, avoiding Throwable.class in particular.
  • fallback – the Function to be called if input fails with the expected exception type. The function's argument is the input's exception.

When selecting an executor, note that directExecutor is dangerous in some cases. See the discussion in the ListenableFuture.addListener documentation. All its warnings about heavyweight listeners are also applicable to heavyweight functions passed to this method. (Specifically, directExecutor functions should avoid heavyweight operations inside AsyncFunction.apply. Any heavyweight operations should occur in other threads responsible for completing the returned Future.)

Params:
  • input – the primary input Future
  • exceptionType – the exception type that triggers use of fallback. The exception type is matched against the input's exception. "The input's exception" means the cause of the ExecutionException thrown by input.get() or, if get() throws a different kind of exception, that exception itself. To avoid hiding bugs and other unrecoverable errors, callers should prefer more specific types, avoiding Throwable.class in particular.
  • fallback – the AsyncFunction to be called if input fails with the expected exception type. The function's argument is the input's exception. "The input's exception" means the cause of the ExecutionException thrown by input.get() or, if get() throws a different kind of exception, that exception itself.
  • executor – the executor that runs fallback if input fails

Returns a new Future whose result is asynchronously derived from the result of the given Future. If the given Future fails, the returned Future fails with the same exception (and the function is not invoked).

More precisely, the returned Future takes its result from a Future produced by applying the given AsyncFunction to the result of the original Future. Example usage:

ListenableFuture<QueryResult> queryFuture =
    transformAsync(rowKeyFuture, dataService::readFuture);

Like transform(ListenableFuture<Object>, Function<? super Object,? extends Object>, Executor) except that the transformation function is invoked on each call to get() on the returned future.

The returned Future reflects the input's cancellation state directly, and any attempt to cancel the returned Future is likewise passed through to the input Future.

Note that calls to timed get only apply the timeout to the execution of the underlying Future, not to the execution of the transformation function.

The primary audience of this method is callers of transform who don't have a ListenableFuture available and do not mind repeated, lazy function evaluation.

Returns a list of delegate futures that correspond to the futures received in the order that they complete. Delegate futures return the same value or throw the same exception as the corresponding input future returns/throws.

"In the order that they complete" means, for practical purposes, about what you would expect, but there are some subtleties. First, we do guarantee that, if the output future at index n is done, the output future at index n-1 is also done. (But as usual with futures, some listeners for future n may complete before some for future n-1.) However, it is possible, if one input completes with result X and another later with result Y, for Y to come before X in the output future list. (Such races are impossible to solve without global synchronization of all future completions. And they should have little practical impact.)

Cancelling a delegate future propagates to input futures once all the delegates complete, either from cancellation or because an input future has completed. If N futures are passed in, and M delegates are cancelled, the remaining M input futures will be cancelled once N - M of the input futures complete. If all the delegates are cancelled, all the input futures will be too.

Registers separate success and failure callbacks to be run when the Future's computation is complete or, if the computation is already complete, immediately.

There is no guaranteed ordering of execution of callbacks, but any callback added through this method is guaranteed to be called once the computation is complete.

Example:


ListenableFuture<QueryResult> future = ...;
addCallback(future,
    new FutureCallback<QueryResult>() {
      public void onSuccess(QueryResult result) {
        storeInCache(result);
      }
      public void onFailure(Throwable t) {
        reportError(t);
      }
    });

This overload, which does not accept an executor, uses directExecutor, a dangerous choice in some cases. See the discussion in the ListenableFuture.addListener documentation. All its warnings about heavyweight listeners are also applicable to heavyweight callbacks passed to this method.

Returns the result of the input Future, which must have already completed.

The benefits of this method are twofold. First, the name "getDone" suggests to readers that the Future is already done. Second, if buggy code calls getDone on a Future that is still pending, the program will throw instead of block. This can be important for APIs like whenAllComplete(...).call(...), where it is easy to use a new input from the call implementation but forget to add it to the arguments of whenAllComplete.

If you are looking for a method to determine whether a given Future is done, use the instance method Future.isDone().

Returns the result of Future.get(), converting most exceptions to a new instance of the given checked exception type. This reduces boilerplate for a common use of Future in which it is unnecessary to programmatically distinguish between exception types or to extract other information from the exception instance.

Exceptions from Future.get are treated as follows:

The overall principle is to continue to treat every checked exception as a checked exception, every unchecked exception as an unchecked exception, and every error as an error. In addition, the cause of any ExecutionException is wrapped in order to ensure that the new stack trace matches that of the current thread.

Instances of exceptionClass are created by choosing an arbitrary public constructor that accepts zero or more arguments, all of type String or Throwable (preferring constructors with at least one String) and calling the constructor via reflection. If the exception did not already have a cause, one is set by calling Throwable.initCause(Throwable) on it. If no such constructor exists, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown.

Throws:
  • X – if get throws any checked exception except for an ExecutionException whose cause is not itself a checked exception
  • UncheckedExecutionException – if get throws an ExecutionException with a RuntimeException as its cause
  • ExecutionError – if get throws an ExecutionException with an Error as its cause
  • CancellationException – if get throws a CancellationException
  • IllegalArgumentException – if exceptionClass extends RuntimeException or does not have a suitable constructor

Returns the result of calling Future.get() uninterruptibly on a task known not to throw a checked exception.
