This happens in a synchronized block so cancel() cannot * execute while the flag is being set. Once we enter the synchronized * block and get past the cancelled check we are guaranteed to run, and * if cancel() is invoked at any point afterwards runCalled will be true, so * cancel() will be unable to return anything other than false, which is what * we want. * * Multi-threaded scenario 2: * cancel() invoked in T1 * The method is synchronized, so even if T2 invokes run() it won't be able to * enter the synchronized block until cancel() finishes executing. * The cancelled flag is set to true, so we return right away. * cancel() returns the result of super.cancel() because runCalled is guaranteed to be false. * */ class StartAwareFutureTask extends FutureTask<Void> { boolean runCalled; boolean cancelled; private final int id; private final Log log = LogFactory.getLog(getClass()); public StartAwareFutureTask(Callable<Void> callable, int id) { super(callable); this.id = id; } @Override public void run() { log.debug(String.format("Task %d: Run invoked.", id)); synchronized (this) { if (cancelled) { log.debug(String.format("Task %d: Task will not run.", id)); return; } runCalled = true; } log.debug(String.format("Task %d: Task will run.", id)); super.run(); } @Override public synchronized boolean cancel(boolean mayInterruptIfRunning) { if (runCalled) { /** * If run has already been called we can't call super.
