Class TimedCallable

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Callable

    public class TimedCallable
    extends ThreadFactoryUser
    implements Callable
    TimedCallable runs a Callable function for a given length of time. The function is run in its own thread. If the function completes in time, its result is returned; otherwise the thread is interrupted and an InterruptedException is thrown.

    Note: TimedCallable will always return within the given time limit (modulo timer inaccuracies), but whether or not the worker thread stops in a timely fashion depends on the interrupt handling in the Callable function's implementation.
