具有已过去时间信息的CompletableFuture

Question

I need to have access to information about asynchronouos method execution time. So, I'm trying to extend CompletableFuture functionality. Here is my implementation with decorator pattern usage:

import java.util.concurrent.*;
import java.util.function.*;
import static lombok.AccessLevel.PRIVATE;
import lombok.AllArgsConstructor;
import lombok.experimental.Delegate;

@AllArgsConstructor(access = PRIVATE)
public class ContinuousCompletableFuture<T> extends CompletableFuture<T> {

    @Delegate
    private final CompletableFuture<T> baseFuture;

    private final long creationTime;

    public static <U> ContinuousCompletableFuture<U> supplyAsync(Supplier<U> supplier) {
        return new ContinuousCompletableFuture<>(CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(supplier));
    }

    private ContinuousCompletableFuture(CompletableFuture<T> baseFuture) {
        this.baseFuture = baseFuture;
        this.creationTime = System.nanoTime();
    }

    public Long getElapsedTime() {
        return (System.nanoTime() - creationTime) / 1000_000L;
    }

    public ContinuousCompletableFuture<Void> thenAcceptAsync(BiConsumer<? super T, Long> action) {
        CompletionStage<Long> elapsedTime = CompletableFuture.completedFuture(getElapsedTime());
        return new ContinuousCompletableFuture<>(baseFuture.thenAcceptBothAsync(elapsedTime, action), creationTime);
    }
}

First test shouldReturnElapsedTime with extracted ContinuousCompletableFuture variable works fine, but other shouldOperateWithOwnExecutionTime fails. Meanwhile, I prefer to see it in my future code neither extracted ContinuousCompletableFuture variable.

import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicLong;
import lombok.extern.slf4j.Slf4j;
import org.junit.*;
import static org.junit.Assert.*;

@Slf4j
public class ContinuousCompletableFutureTest {

    private static final int DELAY = 1000;

    AtomicLong flag = new AtomicLong();

    ContinuousCompletableFuture<String> future;

    @Before
    public void before() {
        future = ContinuousCompletableFuture.supplyAsync(() -> {
            try {
                Thread.sleep(DELAY);
            } catch (InterruptedException ex) {
                log.error("Error during ContinuousCompletableFuture execution", ex);
            }
            return "successfully completed";
        });
    }

    @Test
    public void shouldReturnElapsedTime() {
        future.thenAcceptAsync(s -> {
            long t = future.getElapsedTime();
            log.info("Elapsed {} ms to receive message \"{}\"", t, s);
            flag.set(t);
        });

        try {
            Thread.sleep(2000);
        } catch (InterruptedException ex) {
            log.error("Error awaiting Test completion", ex);
        }

        assertTrue("Future completion should be delayed", flag.get() >= 0.75 * DELAY);
    }

    @Test
    public void shouldOperateWithOwnExecutionTime() {
        future.thenAcceptAsync((s, t) -> {
            log.info("Elapsed {} ms to receive message \"{}\"", t, s);
            flag.set(t);
        });

        try {
            Thread.sleep(2000);
        } catch (InterruptedException ex) {
            log.error("Error awaiting Test completion", ex);
        }

        assertTrue("Future completion should be delayed", flag.get() >= 0.75 * DELAY);
    }
}

I assume that my issue lies in wrong thenAcceptBothAsync method usage.

Any suggestions?

In your method

public ContinuousCompletableFuture<Void> thenAcceptAsync(
                                         BiConsumer<? super T, Long> action) {
    CompletionStage<Long> elapsedTime=CompletableFuture.completedFuture(getElapsedTime());
    return new ContinuousCompletableFuture<>(
        baseFuture.thenAcceptBothAsync(elapsedTime, action), creationTime);
}

you are evaluating getElapsedTime() immediately and pass the result to the BiConsumer unchanged, regardless of the actual completion time.

You can fix it by querying the elapsed time right in the consumer:

public ContinuousCompletableFuture<Void> thenAcceptAsync(
                                         BiConsumer<? super T, Long> action) {
    return new ContinuousCompletableFuture<>(
        baseFuture.thenAcceptAsync(t -> action.accept(t, getElapsedTime())), creationTime);
}
