I’m using the ExecutorService to process thousands of small independent tasks. Each task, on completion, stores the result (which is either true of false).
So, instead of processing all of the tasks, I want to shutdown the threadpool prematurely, if a task has found the answer!
It feels like I’m missing something very obvious here…
Consider using the
invokeAnymethod. It returns when just one is done.http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/concurrent/ExecutorService.html#invokeAny(java.util.Collection)
