3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	54 * with different scheduling semantics:
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	55 * <ul>
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	56 * <li> FJTask.start() (as well as FJTaskRunnerGroup.execute(FJTask))
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	57 * behaves pretty much like Thread.start(). It enqueues a task to be
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	58 * run the next time any FJTaskRunner thread is otherwise idle.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	59 * It maintains standard FIFO ordering with respect to
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	60 * the group of worker threads.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	61 * <li> FJTask.fork() (as well as the two-task spawning method,
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	62 * coInvoke(task1, task2), and the array version
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	63 * coInvoke(FJTask[] tasks)) starts a task
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	64 * that will be executed in

3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	66 * same worker thread as the one that created it, but is FIFO
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	67 * with respect to other tasks if it is run by
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	68 * other worker threads. That is, earlier-forked
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	69 * tasks are preferred to later-forked tasks by other idle workers.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	70 * Fork() is noticeably faster than start(), but can only be
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	71 * used when these scheduling semantics are acceptable.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	72 * <li> FJTask.invoke(FJTask) just executes the run method
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	73 * of one task from within another. It is the analog of a
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	74 * direct call.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	75 * </ul>
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	76 * <p>
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	77 * The main economies of FJTasks stem from the fact that
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	78 * FJTasks do not support blocking operations of any kind.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	79 * FJTasks should just run to completion without
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	80 * issuing waits or performing blocking IO.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	81 * There are several styles for creating the run methods that
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	82 * execute as tasks, including
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	83 * event-style methods, and pure computational methods.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	84 * Generally, the best kinds of FJTasks are those that in turn
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	85 * generate other FJTasks.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	86 * <p>
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	87 * There is nothing actually
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	88 * preventing you from blocking within a FJTask, and very short waits/blocks are
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	89 * completely well behaved. But FJTasks are not designed
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	90 * to support arbitrary synchronization
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	91 * since there is no way to suspend and resume individual tasks
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	92 * once they have begun executing. FJTasks should also be finite
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	93 * in duration -- they should not contain infinite loops.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	94 * FJTasks that might need to perform a blocking
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	95 * action, or hold locks for extended periods, or
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	96 * loop forever can instead create normal
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	97 * java Thread objects that will do so. FJTasks are just not
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	98 * designed to support these things.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	99 * FJTasks may however yield() control to allow their FJTaskRunner threads
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	100 * to run other tasks,
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	101 * and may wait for other dependent tasks via join(). These
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	102 * are the only coordination mechanisms supported by FJTasks.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	103 * <p>
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	104 * FJTasks, and the FJTaskRunners that execute them are not

3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	108 * As with ordinary Threads, an uncaught exception will normally cause
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	109 * its FJTaskRunner thread to die, which in turn may sometimes
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	110 * cause other computations being performed to hang or abort.
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	111 * You can of course
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	112 * do better by trapping exceptions inside the run methods of FJTasks.

3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	114 * The overhead differences between FJTasks and Threads are substantial,
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	115 * especially when using fork() or coInvoke().
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	116 * FJTasks can be two or three orders of magnitude faster than Threads,
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	117 * at least when run on JVMs with high-performance garbage collection
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	118 * (every FJTask quickly becomes garbage) and good native thread support.

3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	120 * Given these overhead savings, you might be tempted to use FJTasks for
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	121 * everything you would use a normal Thread to do. Don't. Java Threads
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	122 * remain better for general purpose thread-based programming. Remember
3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	123 * that FJTasks cannot be used for designs involving arbitrary blocking

3dc0c5604566 Initial checkin of blitz 2.0 fcs - no installer yet. Dan Creswell <dan.creswell@gmail.com> parents: diff changeset	125 * would amount to re-inventing the Thread class, and would make them
