/**
 * A {@code CheckedFuture} is a {@link ListenableFuture} that includes versions of the {@code get}
 * methods that can throw a checked exception. This makes it easier to create a future that executes
 * logic which can throw an exception.
 *
 * 

Warning: We recommend against using {@code CheckedFuture} in new projects. {@code * CheckedFuture} is difficult to build libraries atop. {@code CheckedFuture} ports of methods like * {@link Futures#transformAsync} have historically had bugs, and some of these bugs are necessary, * unavoidable consequences of the {@code CheckedFuture} API. Additionally, {@code CheckedFuture} * encourages users to take exceptions from one thread and rethrow them in another, producing * confusing stack traces. * *

A common implementation is {@link Futures#immediateCheckedFuture}. * *

Implementations of this interface must adapt the exceptions thrown by {@code Future#get()}: * {@link CancellationException}, {@link ExecutionException} and {@link InterruptedException} into * the type specified by the {@code X} type parameter. * *

This interface also extends the ListenableFuture interface to allow listeners to be added. * This allows the future to be used as a normal {@link Future} or as an asynchronous callback * mechanism as needed. This allows multiple callbacks to be registered for a particular task, and * the future will guarantee execution of all listeners when the task completes. * *

For a simpler alternative to CheckedFuture, consider accessing Future values with {@link * Futures#getChecked(Future, Class) Futures.getChecked()}. * * @author Sven Mawson * @since 1.0 */ @Beta @CanIgnoreReturnValue @GwtCompatible public interface CheckedFuture extends ListenableFuture { /** * Exception checking version of {@link Future#get()} that will translate {@link * InterruptedException}, {@link CancellationException} and {@link ExecutionException} into * application-specific exceptions. * * @return the result of executing the future. * @throws X on interruption, cancellation or execution exceptions. */ V checkedGet() throws X; /** * Exception checking version of {@link Future#get(long, TimeUnit)} that will translate {@link * InterruptedException}, {@link CancellationException} and {@link ExecutionException} into * application-specific exceptions. On timeout this method throws a normal {@link * TimeoutException}. * * @return the result of executing the future. * @throws TimeoutException if retrieving the result timed out. * @throws X on interruption, cancellation or execution exceptions. */ V checkedGet(long timeout, TimeUnit unit) throws TimeoutException, X; }
