S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Sometimes we want to return a value from a task.

0:06

S… Speaker 2 (4- Callables and Futures)

For example,

0:07

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

we may call the Twitter API to get the latest tweets for a given user.

0:10

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

That's when we use the callable interface.

0:12

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

If you look at the signature of the submit method,

0:15

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

you can see that this method is overloaded.

0:18

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So far,

0:19

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

we've been passing a runnable object to this method,

0:21

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

but we can also pass a callable object.

0:24

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

This callable is an interface very similar to the runnable interface,

0:28

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

but this interface represents a task that returns a value.

0:33

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So, if you scroll down,

0:34

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

you can see this method has a single abstract method called call.

0:39

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

This is similar to the run method of the runnable interface,

0:42

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

but instead of returning void,

0:44

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

it returns v where v is the generic type parameter

0:48

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

here.

0:48

S… Speaker 2 (4- Callables and Futures)

So,

0:49

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

if we return a value in the body

0:53

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

of this lambda, now this lambda matches a method with no parameters that

0:57

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

returns a value.

0:59

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

That is our call method here.

1:01

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So this lambda expression that we have passed here represents a callable object.

1:05

S… Speaker 2 (4- Callables and Futures)

Now,

1:06

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

we store the result in a variable called future.

1:09

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Let's look at the type of this variable.

1:12

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

That is a future of integer.

1:16

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

This future is an interface that represents the future result of an operation.

1:20

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

An operation that will complete in the future.

1:22

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

It may complete in 500 milliseconds or 2 seconds or 5

1:26

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

seconds, sometime in the future.

1:28

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So the result of this operation is not going to be calculated immediately using

1:33

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

the CPU.

1:34

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So with this future object,

1:35

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

we can get the future result of an operation.

1:38

S… Speaker 2 (4- Callables and Futures)

Okay?

1:38

S… Speaker 2 (4- Callables and Futures)

Now,

1:39

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

to make this demo more interesting,

1:41

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

let's simulate a long running operation.

1:43

S… Speaker 2 (4- Callables and Futures)

So,

1:45

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

In this package,

1:46

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

the executors package,

1:47

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

I'm going to add a new class called longTask.

1:52

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

In this class we're going to add a public static method,

1:56

S… Speaker 2 (4- Callables and Futures)

simulate,

1:58

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

and here we want to put the current thread to sleep for 3 seconds.

2:02

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So thread to sleep for 3 seconds.

2:05

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Now let's handle the interrupted exception.

2:08

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Now,

2:09

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

back in our demo class,

2:12

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

In this task,

2:13

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

instead of printing the name of the current thread,

2:15

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

I'm going to call longTask .simulate.

2:19

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So we're simulating an operation that's going to take 3 seconds.

2:22

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Let's say we're going to call the tweeter API to get the latest tweets for a user.

2:26

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Eventually this task is going to return a value,

2:29

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

in this case 1.

2:30

S… Speaker 2 (4- Callables and Futures)

Now,

2:31

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

when we call the submit method,

2:33

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

the submit method is going to return immediately.

2:35

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So it's not going to wait for 3 seconds.

2:38

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

It's going to immediately return a future object.

2:41

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

With this future object,

2:42

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

we can get the result of this operation.

2:44

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So this object has a bunch of useful methods.

2:48

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Get,

2:49

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

we can use this to get the value of this operation.

2:51

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

The get is overloaded.

2:53

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

With this version,

2:54

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

we can pass a timeout.

2:55

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So if that operation is going to take so long,

2:58

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

perhaps we don't want to wait forever.

2:59

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

We want to timeout in,

3:01

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

let's say, two seconds.

3:02

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

We can also call the get method without a timeout value.

3:05

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

We have cancel for canceling an operation.

3:09

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

we have is cancelled with this we can check to see if this operation is cancelled

3:13

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

and is done which tells us if this operation is complete or not.

3:17

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So I told you that this submit method is going to return immediately.

3:21

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So here we can do some more work.

3:24

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Let's say do more work and at some point

3:28

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

you really need the result of this operation.

3:30

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

That is when we call the get method.

3:34

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Now this method is going to block the current thread and have it wait until the

3:38

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

result of this operation is ready.

3:40

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Eventually,

3:41

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

it's going to return a value.

3:42

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

In this case,

3:43

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

it's going to return an integer because our task returns

3:47

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

an integer.

3:47

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So let's store the result over here.

3:50

S… Speaker 2 (4- Callables and Futures)

Take a look.

3:52

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

The type of this variable is integer.

3:55

S… Speaker 2 (4- Callables and Futures)

Okay?

3:55

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Now here we need to handle a couple of exceptions.

4:01

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

One of them is interrupted exception that you have seen before.

4:05

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

The other is execution exception.

4:07

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

And this happens if this task throws an exception.

4:11

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So we can cache this exception over here and do something with it.

4:15

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Now in this demo I'm going to simplify this code and combine

4:19

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

these catch blocks.

4:20

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So vertical bar,

4:21

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

execution,

4:22

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

exception.

4:23

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Now let's get rid of the second catch block.

4:28

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So, when I run this program,

4:30

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

you will see that we immediately see this message on a terminal because the submit

4:34

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

method is not going to wait for the completion of this task.

4:37

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

It's going to start this task on a separate thread and eventually when we

4:41

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

call future .get,

4:42

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

we have to wait for this operation to complete.

4:45

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

Now we get the result and print it.

4:48

S… Speaker 2 (4- Callables and Futures)

Let's see what happens.

4:50

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

So,

4:51

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

we see do more work,

4:53

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

now 1,

4:53

S… Speaker 2 (4- Callables and Futures)

4:54

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

3 seconds later,

4:55

S… Speaker 1 (4- Callables and Futures)

the result is ready and we print it over here.
