Interface Executor

All Known Implementing Classes:

AsynchBeansWorkManagerExecutor

public interface Executor

This interface allows different Executor implementations to be chosen and used without creating a direct dependency upon java.util.concurrent.Executor added in Java 1.5, the Java 1.4.x-friendly backport of the java.util.concurrent APIs which has a different package structure, or alternative work execution frameworks such as IBM WebSphere 5's com.ibm.websphere.asynchbeans.WorkManager or the commonj.work.WorkManager available in IBM WebSphere 6, BEA WebLogic 9 or other application servers that support the commonj API. Implementations should notify clients of any failure with executing a command by invoking the callback on the FailedExecutionHandler if one has been set.

The current handler.

setFailedExecutionHandler

void setFailedExecutionHandler(FailedExecutionHandler handler)

Sets the handler for failed executions.
