Class ScheduledExecutorFactoryBean

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.springframework.scheduling.concurrent.ScheduledExecutorFactoryBean
All Implemented Interfaces:
DisposableBean, FactoryBean, InitializingBean

public class ScheduledExecutorFactoryBean
extends Object
implements FactoryBean, InitializingBean, DisposableBean

FactoryBean that sets up a JDK 1.5 ScheduledExecutorService (by default: ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor as implementation) and exposes it for bean references.

Allows for registration of ScheduledExecutorTasks, automatically starting the ScheduledExecutorService on initialization and cancelling it on destruction of the context. In scenarios that just require static registration of tasks at startup, there is no need to access the ScheduledExecutorService instance itself in application code.

Note that ScheduledExecutorService uses a Runnable instance that is shared between repeated executions, in contrast to Quartz which instantiates a new Job for each execution.

This class is analogous to the TimerFactoryBean class for the JDK 1.3 Timer facility.

2.0

ScheduledExecutorFactoryBean

public ScheduledExecutorFactoryBean()
Method Detail

setScheduledExecutorTasks

public void setScheduledExecutorTasks(ScheduledExecutorTask[] scheduledExecutorTasks)
Register a list of ScheduledExecutorTask objects with the ScheduledExecutorService that this FactoryBean creates. Depending on each ScheduledExecutorTask's settings, it will be registered via one of ScheduledExecutorService's schedule methods.

See Also:
ScheduledExecutorService.schedule(java.lang.Runnable, long, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit), ScheduledExecutorService.scheduleWithFixedDelay(java.lang.Runnable, long, long, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit), ScheduledExecutorService.scheduleAtFixedRate(java.lang.Runnable, long, long, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit)

setPoolSize

public void setPoolSize(int poolSize)
Set the ScheduledExecutorService's pool size. Default is 1.


setThreadFactory

public void setThreadFactory(ThreadFactory threadFactory)
Set the ThreadFactory to use for the ThreadPoolExecutor's thread pool. Default is the ThreadPoolExecutor's default thread factory.

See Also:
Executors.defaultThreadFactory()

setRejectedExecutionHandler

public void setRejectedExecutionHandler(RejectedExecutionHandler rejectedExecutionHandler)
Set the RejectedExecutionHandler to use for the ThreadPoolExecutor. Default is the ThreadPoolExecutor's default abort policy.

See Also:
ThreadPoolExecutor.AbortPolicy

afterPropertiesSet

public void afterPropertiesSet()
Description copied from interface: InitializingBean
Invoked by a BeanFactory after it has set all bean properties supplied (and satisfied BeanFactoryAware and ApplicationContextAware).

This method allows the bean instance to perform initialization only possible when all bean properties have been set and to throw an exception in the event of misconfiguration.

Specified by:
afterPropertiesSet in interface InitializingBean

createExecutor

protected ScheduledExecutorService createExecutor(int poolSize,
                                                  ThreadFactory threadFactory,
                                                  RejectedExecutionHandler rejectedExecutionHandler)
Create a new ScheduledExecutorService instance. Called by afterPropertiesSet.

Default implementation creates a ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor. Can be overridden in subclasses to provide custom ScheduledExecutorService instances.

Parameters:
poolSize - the specified pool size
threadFactory - the ThreadFactory to use
rejectedExecutionHandler - the RejectedExecutionHandler to use
Returns:
a new ScheduledExecutorService instance
See Also:
afterPropertiesSet(), ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor(int, java.util.concurrent.ThreadFactory, java.util.concurrent.RejectedExecutionHandler)

registerTasks

protected void registerTasks(ScheduledExecutorTask[] tasks,
                             ScheduledExecutorService executor)
Register the specified ScheduledExecutorTasks on the given ScheduledExecutorService.

Parameters:
tasks - the specified ScheduledExecutorTasks (never empty)
executor - the ScheduledExecutorService to register the tasks on.

getObject

public Object getObject()
Description copied from interface: FactoryBean
Return an instance (possibly shared or independent) of the object managed by this factory.

As with a BeanFactory, this allows support for both the Singleton and Prototype design pattern.

If this FactoryBean is not fully initialized yet at the time of the call (for example because it is involved in a circular reference), throw a corresponding FactoryBeanNotInitializedException.

As of Spring 2.0, FactoryBeans are allowed to return null objects. The factory will consider this as normal value to be used; it will not throw a FactoryBeanNotInitializedException in this case anymore. FactoryBean implementations are encouraged to throw FactoryBeanNotInitializedException themselves now, as appropriate.

Specified by:
getObject in interface FactoryBean
Returns:
an instance of the bean (can be null)
See Also:
FactoryBeanNotInitializedException

getObjectType

public Class getObjectType()
Description copied from interface: FactoryBean
Return the type of object that this FactoryBean creates, or null if not known in advance.

This allows one to check for specific types of beans without instantiating objects, for example on autowiring.

In the case of implementations that are creating a singleton object, this method should try to avoid singleton creation as far as possible; it should rather estimate the type in advance. For prototypes, returning a meaningful type here is advisable too.

This method can be called before this FactoryBean has been fully initialized. It must not rely on state created during initialization; of course, it can still use such state if available.

NOTE: Autowiring will simply ignore FactoryBeans that return null here. Therefore it is highly recommended to implement this method properly, using the current state of the FactoryBean.

Specified by:
getObjectType in interface FactoryBean
Returns:
the type of object that this FactoryBean creates, or null if not known at the time of the call
See Also:
ListableBeanFactory.getBeansOfType(java.lang.Class)

isSingleton

public boolean isSingleton()
Description copied from interface: FactoryBean
Is the bean managed by this factory a singleton or a prototype? That is, will getObject() always return the same object (a reference that can be cached)?

NOTE: If a FactoryBean indicates to hold a singleton object, the object returned from getObject() might get cached by the owning BeanFactory. Hence, do not return true unless the FactoryBean always exposes the same reference.

The singleton status of the FactoryBean itself will generally be provided by the owning BeanFactory; usually, it has to be defined as singleton there.

Specified by:
isSingleton in interface FactoryBean
Returns:
if this bean is a singleton
See Also:
FactoryBean.getObject()

destroy

public void destroy()
Cancel the ScheduledExecutorService on bean factory shutdown, stopping all scheduled tasks.

Specified by:
destroy in interface DisposableBean
See Also:
ExecutorService.shutdown()
