very basic code to run asynchronous method. when I run the following code the runAsync doesn't run. what I'm missing?
the result run only the sync code.
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
runAsync("run async command ans wait 10000");
System.out.println("sync commands ");
}
public static void runAsync(String inputStr) {
CompletableFuture.runAsync(() -> {
List<String> strings = Arrays.asList(inputStr.split(" "));
int sleep = Integer.parseInt(strings.get(strings.size() - 1));
try {
sleep(sleep);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println("async command ");
});
}
}
I expect to get first the "sync commands" then the "async command " but get only the sync message
Your task will run in some other Thread
(by default in a Thread
from ForkJoinPool
) and you are not waiting for it to finish - the main Thread
ends before your async task is executed/submitted. You can call CompletableFuture::join
to wait for it to finish and it will block the main Thread
until it finishes:
CompletableFuture.runAsync(() -> {
List<String> strings = Arrays.asList(inputStr.split(" "));
int sleep = Integer.parseInt(strings.get(strings.size() - 1));
try {
sleep(sleep);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println("async command ");
}).join(); //here call the join
or like:
CompletableFuture<Void> cf = CompletableFuture.runAsync(() -> {
//...
});
cf.join();
It does run, but it runs on another thread and you're not waiting or doing anything with the result. As Javadoc of CompletableFuture.runAsync()
says:
Returns a new CompletableFuture that is asynchronously completed by a task running in the ForkJoinPool.commonPool() after it runs the given action.
runAsync()
is useful for tasks that don't return anything. If you want a result from it you should use supplyAsync()
which returns a CompletableFuture<T>
Then you can get the result from it:
// Run a task specified by a Supplier object asynchronously
CompletableFuture<String> future = CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(new Supplier<String>() {
@Override
public String get() {
try {
TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(1);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
throw new IllegalStateException(e);
}
return "Result of the asynchronous computation";
}
});
// Block and get the result of the Future
String result = future.get();
System.out.println(result);
You need to wait for the async task to be completed by using join, for example:
public static void main(String[] args) {
CompletableFuture<Void> future = runAsync("run async command ans wait 10000");
future.join();
System.out.println("sync commands ");
}
public static CompletableFuture<Void> runAsync(String inputStr) {
return CompletableFuture.runAsync(() -> {
List<String> strings = Arrays.asList(inputStr.split(" "));
int sleep = Integer.parseInt(strings.get(strings.size() - 1));
try {
sleep(sleep);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println("async command ");
});
}
