Direct Known Subclasses:

ForwardingFuture.SimpleForwardingFuture, ForwardingListenableFuture

@GwtCompatible
public abstract class ForwardingFuture<V>
extends ForwardingObject
implements <V>

A which forwards all its method calls to another future. Subclasses should override one or more methods to modify the behavior of the backing future as desired per the .

Most subclasses can just use ForwardingFuture.SimpleForwardingFuture.

Method Detail

delegate

protected abstract <? extends V> delegate()

Description copied from class: ForwardingObject

Returns the backing delegate instance that methods are forwarded to. Abstract subclasses generally override this method with an abstract method that has a more specific return type, such as ForwardingSet.delegate(). Concrete subclasses override this method to supply the instance being decorated.

Specified by:

delegate in class ForwardingObject

cancel

public boolean cancel(boolean mayInterruptIfRunning)

Description copied from interface:

Attempts to cancel execution of this task. This attempt will fail if the task has already completed, has already been cancelled, or could not be cancelled for some other reason. If successful, and this task has not started when cancel is called, this task should never run. If the task has already started, then the mayInterruptIfRunning parameter determines whether the thread executing this task should be interrupted in an attempt to stop the task.

After this method returns, subsequent calls to will always return true. Subsequent calls to will always return true if this method returned true.

Specified by:

in interface <V>

Parameters:

mayInterruptIfRunning - true if the thread executing this task should be interrupted; otherwise, in-progress tasks are allowed to complete

Returns:

false if the task could not be cancelled, typically because it has already completed normally; true otherwise

isCancelled

public boolean isCancelled()

Description copied from interface:

Returns true if this task was cancelled before it completed normally.

Specified by:

in interface <V>

Returns:

true if this task was cancelled before it completed

isDone

public boolean isDone()

Description copied from interface:

Returns true if this task completed. Completion may be due to normal termination, an exception, or cancellation -- in all of these cases, this method will return true.

Specified by:

in interface <V>

Returns:

true if this task completed

get

public V get()
      throws ,
             

Description copied from interface:

Waits if necessary for the computation to complete, and then retrieves its result.

Specified by:

in interface <V>

Returns:

the computed result

Throws:

- if the current thread was interrupted while waiting

- if the computation threw an exception

get

public V get(long timeout,
              unit)
      throws ,
             ,
             

Description copied from interface:

Waits if necessary for at most the given time for the computation to complete, and then retrieves its result, if available.

Specified by:

in interface <V>

Parameters:

timeout - the maximum time to wait

unit - the time unit of the timeout argument

Returns:

the computed result

Throws:

- if the current thread was interrupted while waiting

- if the computation threw an exception

- if the wait timed out
