Hey guys, what's up?
Recently I've been creating more than 20 simple code examples to illustrate how to use the Java API and Executors Framework and I'd like to share it with you and also ask your help to contribute to it forking my GitHub Repository and creating more simple Java Thread examples (Fork/Join Framework simple examples would be very welcome as well).
Some of the subjects already covered in the code examples includes:
Running tasks from Thread and Runnable
Strategies for returning values from Threads and Runnable tasks
wait(), notify(), interrupt(), join(), isAlive()...
Creating Thread Pools (FixedThreadPool, CachedThreadPool, SingleThreadPool, ScheduledThreadPool...)
Submiting tasks to ExecutorService
Returning values from tasks using Callable and Future
Naming threads and creating deamon threads in a thread pool implementing ThreadFactory interface
Terminating tasks using Thread API
Terminating tasks using Future
Handling exceptions in normal threads implementing UncaughtExceptionHandler interface
Handling exceptions in threads on a thread pool implementing UncaughtExceptionHandler interface
Managing tasks termination using CountDownLatch
Running scheduled tasks using Timer and TimerTask
Running scheduled tasks using ScheduledThreadPool
I hope you enjoy playing with it and let me know if there are any doubts.
