/**
 * A {@link ListenableFuture} whose result can be set by a {@link #set(Object)}, {@link
 * #setException(Throwable)} or {@link #setFuture(ListenableFuture)} call. It can also, like any
 * other {@code Future}, be {@linkplain #cancel cancelled}.
 *
 * {@code SettableFuture} is the recommended {@code ListenableFuture} implementation when your
 * task cannot be implemented with {@link ListeningExecutorService}, the various {@link Futures}
 * utility methods, or {@link ListenableFutureTask}. Those APIs have less opportunity for developer
 * error. If your needs are more complex than {@code SettableFuture} supports, use {@link
 * AbstractFuture}, which offers an extensible version of the API.
