public class ForkJoinPool extends AbstractExecutorService
AnExecutorService
for runningForkJoinTask
s. AForkJoinPool
provides the entry point for submissions from non-ForkJoinTask
clients, as well as management and monitoring operations.A
ForkJoinPool
differs from other kinds ofExecutorService
mainly by virtue of employing work-stealing: all threads in the pool attempt to find and execute tasks submitted to the pool and/or created by other active tasks (eventually blocking waiting for work if none exist). This enables efficient processing when most tasks spawn other subtasks (as do mostForkJoinTask
s), as well as when many small tasks are submitted to the pool from external clients. Especially when setting asyncMode to true in constructors,ForkJoinPool
s may also be appropriate for use with event-style tasks that are never joined.A static
commonPool()
is available and appropriate for most applications. The common pool is used by any ForkJoinTask that is not explicitly submitted to a specified pool. Using the common pool normally reduces resource usage (its threads are slowly reclaimed during periods of non-use, and reinstated upon subsequent use).For applications that require separate or custom pools, a
ForkJoinPool
may be constructed with a given target parallelism level; by default, equal to the number of available processors. The pool attempts to maintain enough active (or available) threads by dynamically adding, suspending, or resuming internal worker threads, even if some tasks are stalled waiting to join others. However, no such adjustments are guaranteed in the face of blocked I/O or other unmanaged synchronization. The nestedForkJoinPool.ManagedBlocker
interface enables extension of the kinds of synchronization accommodated.In addition to execution and lifecycle control methods, this class provides status check methods (for example
getStealCount()
) that are intended to aid in developing, tuning, and monitoring fork/join applications. Also, methodtoString()
returns indications of pool state in a convenient form for informal monitoring.As is the case with other ExecutorServices, there are three main task execution methods summarized in the following table. These are designed to be used primarily by clients not already engaged in fork/join computations in the current pool. The main forms of these methods accept instances of
ForkJoinTask
, but overloaded forms also allow mixed execution of plainRunnable
- orCallable
- based activities as well. However, tasks that are already executing in a pool should normally instead use the within-computation forms listed in the table unless using async event-style tasks that are not usually joined, in which case there is little difference among choice of methods.Summary of task execution methods Call from non-fork/join clients Call from within fork/join computations Arrange async execution execute(ForkJoinTask)
ForkJoinTask.fork()
Await and obtain result invoke(ForkJoinTask)
ForkJoinTask.invoke()
Arrange exec and obtain Future submit(ForkJoinTask)
ForkJoinTask.fork()
(ForkJoinTasks are Futures)The common pool is by default constructed with default parameters, but these may be controlled by setting three system properties:
java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.common.parallelism
- the parallelism level, a non-negative integerjava.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.common.threadFactory
- the class name of aForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory
java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.common.exceptionHandler
- the class name of aThread.UncaughtExceptionHandler
SecurityManager
is present and no factory is specified, then the default pool uses a factory supplying threads that have noPermissions
enabled. The system class loader is used to load these classes. Upon any error in establishing these settings, default parameters are used. It is possible to disable or limit the use of threads in the common pool by setting the parallelism property to zero, and/or using a factory that may returnnull
. However doing so may cause unjoined tasks to never be executed.Implementation notes: This implementation restricts the maximum number of running threads to 32767. Attempts to create pools with greater than the maximum number result in
IllegalArgumentException
.This implementation rejects submitted tasks (that is, by throwing
RejectedExecutionException
) only when the pool is shut down or internal resources have been exhausted.- Since:

Method Detail
commonPool
public static ForkJoinPool commonPool()
Returns the common pool instance. This pool is statically constructed; its run state is unaffected by attempts toshutdown()
orshutdownNow()
. However this pool and any ongoing processing are automatically terminated upon programSystem.exit(int)
. Any program that relies on asynchronous task processing to complete before program termination should invokecommonPool().
awaitQuiescence
, before exit.- Returns:
- the common pool instance
- Since:
- 1.8
invoke
public <T> T invoke(ForkJoinTask<T> task)
Performs the given task, returning its result upon completion. If the computation encounters an unchecked Exception or Error, it is rethrown as the outcome of this invocation. Rethrown exceptions behave in the same way as regular exceptions, but, when possible, contain stack traces (as displayed for example usingex.printStackTrace()
) of both the current thread as well as the thread actually encountering the exception; minimally only the latter.- Type Parameters:

public ForkJoinPool.ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory getFactory()
Returns the factory used for constructing new workers.- Returns:
- the factory used for constructing new workers
getUncaughtExceptionHandler
public Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler getUncaughtExceptionHandler()
Returns the handler for internal worker threads that terminate due to unrecoverable errors encountered while executing tasks.- Returns:
-
the handler, or
null
if none
getParallelism
public int getParallelism()
Returns the targeted parallelism level of this pool.- Returns:
- the targeted parallelism level of this pool
getCommonPoolParallelism
public static int getCommonPoolParallelism()
Returns the targeted parallelism level of the common pool.- Returns:
- the targeted parallelism level of the common pool
- Since:
- 1.8
getPoolSize
public int getPoolSize()
Returns the number of worker threads that have started but not yet terminated. The result returned by this method may differ fromgetParallelism()
when threads are created to maintain parallelism when others are cooperatively blocked.- Returns:
- the number of worker threads
getAsyncMode
public boolean getAsyncMode()
Returnstrue
if this pool uses local first-in-first-out scheduling mode for forked tasks that are never joined.- Returns:
-
true
if this pool uses async mode
getRunningThreadCount
public int getRunningThreadCount()
Returns an estimate of the number of worker threads that are not blocked waiting to join tasks or for other managed synchronization. This method may overestimate the number of running threads.- Returns:
- the number of worker threads
getActiveThreadCount
public int getActiveThreadCount()
Returns an estimate of the number of threads that are currently stealing or executing tasks. This method may overestimate the number of active threads.- Returns:
- the number of active threads
isQuiescent
public boolean isQuiescent()
Returnstrue
if all worker threads are currently idle. An idle worker is one that cannot obtain a task to execute because none are available to steal from other threads, and there are no pending submissions to the pool. This method is conservative; it might not returntrue
immediately upon idleness of all threads, but will eventually become true if threads remain inactive.- Returns:
-
true
if all threads are currently idle
getStealCount
public long getStealCount()
Returns an estimate of the total number of tasks stolen from one thread's work queue by another. The reported value underestimates the actual total number of steals when the pool is not quiescent. This value may be useful for monitoring and tuning fork/join programs: in general, steal counts should be high enough to keep threads busy, but low enough to avoid overhead and contention across threads.- Returns:
- the number of steals
getQueuedTaskCount
public long getQueuedTaskCount()
Returns an estimate of the total number of tasks currently held in queues by worker threads (but not including tasks submitted to the pool that have not begun executing). This value is only an approximation, obtained by iterating across all threads in the pool. This method may be useful for tuning task granularities.- Returns:
- the number of queued tasks
getQueuedSubmissionCount
public int getQueuedSubmissionCount()
Returns an estimate of the number of tasks submitted to this pool that have not yet begun executing. This method may take time proportional to the number of submissions.- Returns:
- the number of queued submissions
hasQueuedSubmissions
public boolean hasQueuedSubmissions()
Returnstrue
if there are any tasks submitted to this pool that have not yet begun executing.- Returns:
-
true
if there are any queued submissions
pollSubmission
protected ForkJoinTask<?> pollSubmission()
Removes and returns the next unexecuted submission if one is available. This method may be useful in extensions to this class that re-assign work in systems with multiple pools.- Returns:
-
the next submission, or
null
if none
drainTasksTo
protected int drainTasksTo(Collection<? super ForkJoinTask<?>> c)
Removes all available unexecuted submitted and forked tasks from scheduling queues and adds them to the given collection, without altering their execution status. These may include artificially generated or wrapped tasks. This method is designed to be invoked only when the pool is known to be quiescent. Invocations at other times may not remove all tasks. A failure encountered while attempting to add elements to collectionc
may result in elements being in neither, either or both collections when the associated exception is thrown. The behavior of this operation is undefined if the specified collection is modified while the operation is in progress.- Parameters:
-
c
- the collection to transfer elements into - Returns:
- the number of elements transferred
toString
public String toString()
Returns a string identifying this pool, as well as its state, including indications of run state, parallelism level, and worker and task counts.
shutdown
public void shutdown()
Possibly initiates an orderly shutdown in which previously submitted tasks are executed, but no new tasks will be accepted. Invocation has no effect on execution state if this is thecommonPool()
, and no additional effect if already shut down. Tasks that are in the process of being submitted concurrently during the course of this method may or may not be rejected.- Throws:
-
SecurityException
- if a security manager exists and the caller is not permitted to modify threads because it does not holdRuntimePermission
("modifyThread")
shutdownNow
public List<Runnable> shutdownNow()
Possibly attempts to cancel and/or stop all tasks, and reject all subsequently submitted tasks. Invocation has no effect on execution state if this is thecommonPool()
, and no additional effect if already shut down. Otherwise, tasks that are in the process of being submitted or executed concurrently during the course of this method may or may not be rejected. This method cancels both existing and unexecuted tasks, in order to permit termination in the presence of task dependencies. So the method always returns an empty list (unlike the case for some other Executors).- Returns:
- an empty list
- Throws:
-
SecurityException
- if a security manager exists and the caller is not permitted to modify threads because it does not holdRuntimePermission
("modifyThread")
isTerminated
public boolean isTerminated()
Returnstrue
if all tasks have completed following shut down.- Returns:
-
true
if all tasks have completed following shut down
isTerminating
public boolean isTerminating()
Returnstrue
if the process of termination has commenced but not yet completed. This method may be useful for debugging. A return oftrue
reported a sufficient period after shutdown may indicate that submitted tasks have ignored or suppressed interruption, or are waiting for I/O, causing this executor not to properly terminate. (See the advisory notes for classForkJoinTask
stating that tasks should not normally entail blocking operations. But if they do, they must abort them on interrupt.)- Returns:
-
true
if terminating but not yet terminated
isShutdown
public boolean isShutdown()
Returnstrue
if this pool has been shut down.- Returns:
-
true
if this pool has been shut down
awaitTermination
public boolean awaitTermination(long timeout, TimeUnit unit) throws InterruptedException
Blocks until all tasks have completed execution after a shutdown request, or the timeout occurs, or the current thread is interrupted, whichever happens first. Because thecommonPool()
never terminates until program shutdown, when applied to the common pool, this method is equivalent toawaitQuiescence(long, TimeUnit)
but always returnsfalse
.- Parameters:
-
timeout
- the maximum time to wait -
unit
- the time unit of the timeout argument - Returns:
-
true
if this executor terminated andfalse
if the timeout elapsed before termination - Throws:
-
InterruptedException
- if interrupted while waiting
awaitQuiescence
public boolean awaitQuiescence(long timeout, TimeUnit unit)
If called by a ForkJoinTask operating in this pool, equivalent in effect toForkJoinTask.helpQuiesce()
. Otherwise, waits and/or attempts to assist performing tasks until this poolisQuiescent()
or the indicated timeout elapses.- Parameters:
-
timeout
- the maximum time to wait -
unit
- the time unit of the timeout argument - Returns:
-
true
if quiescent;false
if the timeout elapsed.
managedBlock
public static void managedBlock(ForkJoinPool.ManagedBlocker blocker) throws InterruptedException
Runs the given possibly blocking task. When running in a ForkJoinPool, this method possibly arranges for a spare thread to be activated if necessary to ensure sufficient parallelism while the current thread is blocked inblocker.block()
.This method repeatedly calls
blocker.isReleasable()
andblocker.block()
until either method returnstrue
. Every call toblocker.block()
is preceded by a call toblocker.isReleasable()
that returnedfalse
.If not running in a ForkJoinPool, this method is behaviorally equivalent to
while (!blocker.isReleasable()) if (blocker.block()) break;
blocker.block()
.- Parameters:
-
blocker
- the blocker task - Throws:
-
InterruptedException
- ifblocker.block()
did so
