处理来自 Java ExecutorService 任务的异常

Question

I'm trying to use Java's ThreadPoolExecutor class to run a large number of heavy weight tasks with a fixed number of threads. Each of the tasks has many places during which it may fail due to exceptions.

I've subclassed ThreadPoolExecutor and I've overridden the afterExecute method which is supposed to provide any uncaught exceptions encountered while running a task. However, I can't seem to make it work.

For example:

public class ThreadPoolErrors extends ThreadPoolExecutor {
    public ThreadPoolErrors() {
        super(  1, // core threads
                1, // max threads
                1, // timeout
                TimeUnit.MINUTES, // timeout units
                new LinkedBlockingQueue<Runnable>() // work queue
        );
    }

    protected void afterExecute(Runnable r, Throwable t) {
        super.afterExecute(r, t);
        if(t != null) {
            System.out.println("Got an error: " + t);
        } else {
            System.out.println("Everything's fine--situation normal!");
        }
    }

    public static void main( String [] args) {
        ThreadPoolErrors threadPool = new ThreadPoolErrors();
        threadPool.submit( 
                new Runnable() {
                    public void run() {
                        throw new RuntimeException("Ouch! Got an error.");
                    }
                }
        );
        threadPool.shutdown();
    }
}

The output from this program is "Everything's fine--situation normal!" even though the only Runnable submitted to the thread pool throws an exception. Any clue to what's going on here?

Thanks!

Answer 1

WARNING : It should be noted that this solution will block the calling thread.

---

If you want to process exceptions thrown by the task, then it is generally better to use Callable rather than Runnable .

Callable.call() is permitted to throw checked exceptions, and these get propagated back to the calling thread:

Callable task = ...
Future future = executor.submit(task);
try {
   future.get();
} catch (ExecutionException ex) {
   ex.getCause().printStackTrace();
}

If Callable.call() throws an exception, this will be wrapped in an ExecutionException and thrown by Future.get() .

This is likely to be much preferable to subclassing ThreadPoolExecutor . It also gives you the opportunity to re-submit the task if the exception is a recoverable one.

Answer 2

From the docs :

Note: When actions are enclosed in tasks (such as FutureTask) either explicitly or via methods such as submit, these task objects catch and maintain computational exceptions, and so they do not cause abrupt termination, and the internal exceptions are not passed to this method.

When you submit a Runnable, it'll get wrapped in a Future.

Your afterExecute should be something like this:

public final class ExtendedExecutor extends ThreadPoolExecutor {

    // ...

    protected void afterExecute(Runnable r, Throwable t) {
        super.afterExecute(r, t);
        if (t == null && r instanceof Future<?>) {
            try {
                Future<?> future = (Future<?>) r;
                if (future.isDone()) {
                    future.get();
                }
            } catch (CancellationException ce) {
                t = ce;
            } catch (ExecutionException ee) {
                t = ee.getCause();
            } catch (InterruptedException ie) {
                Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
            }
        }
        if (t != null) {
            System.out.println(t);
        }
    }
}

Answer 3

The explanation for this behavior is right in the javadoc for afterExecute :

Note: When actions are enclosed in tasks (such as FutureTask) either explicitly or via methods such as submit, these task objects catch and maintain computational exceptions, and so they do not cause abrupt termination, and the internal exceptions are not passed to this method.

Answer 4

I got around it by wrapping the supplied runnable submitted to the executor.

CompletableFuture.runAsync(() -> {
        try {
              runnable.run();
        } catch (Throwable e) {
              Log.info(Concurrency.class, "runAsync", e);
        }
}, executorService);

Answer 5

I'm using VerboseRunnable class from jcabi-log , which swallows all exceptions and logs them. Very convenient, for example:

import com.jcabi.log.VerboseRunnable;
scheduler.scheduleWithFixedDelay(
  new VerboseRunnable(
    Runnable() {
      public void run() { 
        // the code, which may throw
      }
    },
    true // it means that all exceptions will be swallowed and logged
  ),
  1, 1, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS
);

Answer 6

Another solution would be to use the ManagedTask and ManagedTaskListener .

You need a Callable or Runnable which implements the interface ManagedTask .

The method getManagedTaskListener returns the instance you want.

public ManagedTaskListener getManagedTaskListener() {

And you implement in ManagedTaskListener the taskDone method:

@Override
public void taskDone(Future<?> future, ManagedExecutorService executor, Object task, Throwable exception) {
    if (exception != null) {
        LOGGER.log(Level.SEVERE, exception.getMessage());
    }
}

Answer 7

This works

• It is derived from SingleThreadExecutor, but you can adapt it easily
• Java 8 lamdas code, but easy to fix

It will create a Executor with a single thread, that can get a lot of tasks; and will wait for the current one to end execution to begin with the next

In case of uncaugth error or exception the uncaughtExceptionHandler will catch it

public final class SingleThreadExecutorWithExceptions {

    public static ExecutorService newSingleThreadExecutorWithExceptions(final Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler uncaughtExceptionHandler) {

        ThreadFactory factory = (Runnable runnable)  -> {
            final Thread newThread = new Thread(runnable, "SingleThreadExecutorWithExceptions");
            newThread.setUncaughtExceptionHandler( (final Thread caugthThread,final Throwable throwable) -> {
                uncaughtExceptionHandler.uncaughtException(caugthThread, throwable);
            });
            return newThread;
        };
        return new FinalizableDelegatedExecutorService
                (new ThreadPoolExecutor(1, 1,
                        0L, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS,
                        new LinkedBlockingQueue(),
                        factory){


                    protected void afterExecute(Runnable runnable, Throwable throwable) {
                        super.afterExecute(runnable, throwable);
                        if (throwable == null && runnable instanceof Future) {
                            try {
                                Future future = (Future) runnable;
                                if (future.isDone()) {
                                    future.get();
                                }
                            } catch (CancellationException ce) {
                                throwable = ce;
                            } catch (ExecutionException ee) {
                                throwable = ee.getCause();
                            } catch (InterruptedException ie) {
                                Thread.currentThread().interrupt(); // ignore/reset
                            }
                        }
                        if (throwable != null) {
                            uncaughtExceptionHandler.uncaughtException(Thread.currentThread(),throwable);
                        }
                    }
                });

Answer 8

如果您想监控任务的执行，您可以旋转 1 或 2 个线程（可能更多取决于负载）并使用它们从 ExecutionCompletionService 包装器中获取任务。

Answer 9

If your ExecutorService comes from an external source (ie it's not possible to subclass ThreadPoolExecutor and override afterExecute() ), you can use a dynamic proxy to achieve the desired behavior:

public static ExecutorService errorAware(final ExecutorService executor) {
    return (ExecutorService) Proxy.newProxyInstance(Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader(),
            new Class[] {ExecutorService.class},
            (proxy, method, args) -> {
                if (method.getName().equals("submit")) {
                    final Object arg0 = args[0];
                    if (arg0 instanceof Runnable) {
                        args[0] = new Runnable() {
                            @Override
                            public void run() {
                                final Runnable task = (Runnable) arg0;
                                try {
                                    task.run();
                                    if (task instanceof Future<?>) {
                                        final Future<?> future = (Future<?>) task;

                                        if (future.isDone()) {
                                            try {
                                                future.get();
                                            } catch (final CancellationException ce) {

                                                ee.getCause().printStackTrace();

                                    }
                                } catch (final RuntimeException re) {
                                    // Your error-handling code here
                                    re.printStackTrace();
                                    throw re;
                                } catch (final Error e) {

Answer 10

This is because of AbstractExecutorService :: submit is wrapping your runnable into RunnableFuture (nothing but FutureTask ) like below

AbstractExecutorService.java

public Future<?> submit(Runnable task) {
    if (task == null) throw new NullPointerException();
    RunnableFuture<Void> ftask = newTaskFor(task, null); /////////HERE////////
    execute(ftask);
    return ftask;
}

Then execute will pass it to Worker and Worker.run() will call the below.

ThreadPoolExecutor.java

final void runWorker(Worker w) {
    Thread wt = Thread.currentThread();
    Runnable task = w.firstTask;
    w.firstTask = null;
    w.unlock(); // allow interrupts
    boolean completedAbruptly = true;
    try {
        while (task != null || (task = getTask()) != null) {
            w.lock();
            // If pool is stopping, ensure thread is interrupted;
            // if not, ensure thread is not interrupted.  This
            // requires a recheck in second case to deal with
            // shutdownNow race while clearing interrupt
            if ((runStateAtLeast(ctl.get(), STOP) ||
                 (Thread.interrupted() &&
                  runStateAtLeast(ctl.get(), STOP))) &&
                !wt.isInterrupted())
                wt.interrupt();
            try {
                beforeExecute(wt, task);
                Throwable thrown = null;
                try {
                    task.run();           /////////HERE////////
                } catch (RuntimeException x) {
                    thrown = x; throw x;
                } catch (Error x) {
                    thrown = x; throw x;
                } catch (Throwable x) {
                    thrown = x; throw new Error(x);
                } finally {
                    afterExecute(task, thrown);
                }
            } finally {
                task = null;
                w.completedTasks++;
                w.unlock();
            }
        }
        completedAbruptly = false;
    } finally {
        processWorkerExit(w, completedAbruptly);
    }
}

Finally task.run(); in the above code call will call FutureTask.run() . Here is the exception handler code, because of this you are NOT getting the expected exception.

class FutureTask<V> implements RunnableFuture<V>

public void run() {
    if (state != NEW ||
        !UNSAFE.compareAndSwapObject(this, runnerOffset,
                                     null, Thread.currentThread()))
        return;
    try {
        Callable<V> c = callable;
        if (c != null && state == NEW) {
            V result;
            boolean ran;
            try {
                result = c.call();
                ran = true;
            } catch (Throwable ex) {   /////////HERE////////
                result = null;
                ran = false;
                setException(ex);
            }
            if (ran)
                set(result);
        }
    } finally {
        // runner must be non-null until state is settled to
        // prevent concurrent calls to run()
        runner = null;
        // state must be re-read after nulling runner to prevent
        // leaked interrupts
        int s = state;
        if (s >= INTERRUPTING)
            handlePossibleCancellationInterrupt(s);
    }
}

Answer 11

This is similar to mmm's solution, but a bit more understandable. Have your tasks extend an abstract class that wraps the run() method.

public abstract Task implements Runnable {

    public abstract void execute();

    public void run() {
      try {
        execute();
      } catch (Throwable t) {
        // handle it  
      }
    }
}


public MySampleTask extends Task {
    public void execute() {
        // heavy, error-prone code here
    }
}

Answer 12

The doc's example wasn't giving me the results I wanted.

When a Thread process was abandoned (with explicit interput(); s) Exceptions were appearing.

Also I wanted to keep the "System.exit" functionality that a normal main thread has with a typical throw , I wanted this so that the programmer was not forced to work on the code having to worry on it's context (... a thread), If any error appears, it must either be a programming error, or the case must be solved in place with a manual catch... no need for overcomplexities really.

So I changed the code to match my needs.

    @Override 
    protected void afterExecute(Runnable r, Throwable t) { 
        super.afterExecute(r, t); 
        if (t == null && r instanceof Future<?>) { 
            Future<?> future = (Future<?>) r; 
            boolean terminate = false; 
                try { 
                    future.get(); 
                } catch (ExecutionException e) { 
                    terminate = true; 
                    e.printStackTrace(); 
                } catch (InterruptedException | CancellationException ie) {// ignore/reset 
                    Thread.currentThread().interrupt(); 
                } finally { 
                    if (terminate) System.exit(0); 
                } 
        } 
    }

Be cautious though, this code basically transforms your threads into a main thread Exception-wise, while keeping all it's parallel properties... But let's be real, designing architectures in function of the system's parallel mechanism ( extends Thread ) is the wrong approach IMHO... unless an event driven design is strictly required....but then... if that is the requirement the question is: Is the ExecutorService even needed in this case?... maybe not.

而不是子类化 ThreadPoolExecutor，我会为它提供一个ThreadFactory实例，该实例创建新线程并为它们提供UncaughtExceptionHandler
