JDK11源码学习01 | Executor接口

package java.util.concurrent;

/**
 * An object that executes submitted {@link Runnable} tasks. This
 * interface provides a way of decoupling task submission from the
 * mechanics of how each task will be run, including details of thread
 * use, scheduling, etc.  An {@code Executor} is normally used
 * instead of explicitly creating threads. For example, rather than
 * invoking {@code new Thread(new RunnableTask()).start()} for each
 * of a set of tasks, you might use:
 *
 * 执行提交的 Runnable 任务的对象。此接口提供了一种将任务提交与每个任务的运行机制分离的方法，
 * 包括线程使用，调度等的详细信息。通常使用 Executor 而不是显式创建线程。
 * 例如，new Thread(new RunnableTask()).start() 您可以使用以下命令而不是调用每组任务;
 *
 *
 * <pre> {@code
 * Executor executor = anExecutor();
 * executor.execute(new RunnableTask1());
 * executor.execute(new RunnableTask2());
 * ...}</pre>
 *
 * However, the {@code Executor} interface does not strictly require
 * that execution be asynchronous. In the simplest case, an executor
 * can run the submitted task immediately in the caller's thread:
 *
 * 但是，Executor 接口并不严格要求执行是异步的。
 * 在最简单的情况下，执行程序可以立即在调用者的线程中运行提交的任务：
 *
 *
 * <pre> {@code
 * class DirectExecutor implements Executor {
 *   public void execute(Runnable r) {
 *     r.run();
 *   }
 * }}</pre>
 *
 * More typically, tasks are executed in some thread other than the
 * caller's thread.  The executor below spawns a new thread for each
 * task.
 *
 * 更典型地，任务在除调用者线程之外的某个线程中执行。
 * 下面的执行程序为每个任务生成一个新线程。
 *
 *
 * <pre> {@code
 * class ThreadPerTaskExecutor implements Executor {
 *   public void execute(Runnable r) {
 *     new Thread(r).start();
 *   }
 * }}</pre>
 *
 * Many {@code Executor} implementations impose some sort of
 * limitation on how and when tasks are scheduled.  The executor below
 * serializes the submission of tasks to a second executor,
 * illustrating a composite executor.
 *
 * 许多Executor实现对如何以及何时安排任务施加了某种限制。
 * 下面的执行程序将任务提交序列化到第二个执行程序，说明了一个复合执行程序。
 *
 *
 * <pre> {@code
 * class SerialExecutor implements Executor {
 *   final Queue<Runnable> tasks = new ArrayDeque<>();
 *   final Executor executor;
 *   Runnable active;
 *
 *   SerialExecutor(Executor executor) {
 *     this.executor = executor;
 *   }
 *
 *   public synchronized void execute(Runnable r) {
 *     tasks.add(() -> {
 *       try {
 *         r.run();
 *       } finally {
 *         scheduleNext();
 *       }
 *     });
 *     if (active == null) {
 *       scheduleNext();
 *     }
 *   }
 *
 *   protected synchronized void scheduleNext() {
 *     if ((active = tasks.poll()) != null) {
 *       executor.execute(active);
 *     }
 *   }
 * }}</pre>
 *
 * The {@code Executor} implementations provided in this package
 * implement {@link ExecutorService}, which is a more extensive
 * interface.  The {@link ThreadPoolExecutor} class provides an
 * extensible thread pool implementation. The {@link Executors} class
 * provides convenient factory methods for these Executors.
 *
 * 在 Executor 此包中提供实施方式实现 ExecutorService，这是一个更广泛的接口。
 * ThreadPoolExecutor 类提供了一个可扩展的线程池实现。
 * Executors 类为这些 Executor 提供了便捷的工厂方法。
 *
 *
 * <p>Memory consistency effects: Actions in a thread prior to
 * submitting a {@code Runnable} object to an {@code Executor}
 * <a href="package-summary.html#MemoryVisibility"><i>happen-before</i></a>
 * its execution begins, perhaps in another thread.
 *
 * 内存一致性效果：
 * 在提交Runnable对象之前的一个线程中的操作 Executor - 在 执行开始之前 - 可能在另一个线程中。
