How to throw Timeout exception for the task inside parallel stream

The code I want to achieve is as below:
StreamSupport.stream(jsonArray.spliterator(), true).forEach(s ->{
try {
//invoke other api and set timeout for its execution
}
catch(TimeoutException e) {
s.getAsJsonObject().addProperty("processStatus", "Failure");
}
});
Can anyone help me in achieving "invoke other api and set timeout for it's execution" case in the above snippet?

I don't think you can do that inside a stream, but you can wrap the execution in a Callable like so to achieve the same result:
public static void main(String[] args) {
ExecutorService executor = Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor();
Future<String> future = executor.submit(new Task());
try {
System.out.println(future.get(1, TimeUnit.SECONDS));
}catch (Exception e) {
future.cancel(true);
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
executor.shutdownNow();
}
}
private static class Task implements Callable<String> {
#Override
public String call(){
IntStream.of(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9).parallel().forEach(t -> {
try {
Thread.sleep(1000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
});
return "ok";
}
}

ShutdownNow on ExecutorService does not work properly

I'm wiriting a Spring Boot app for simulating an events generator of syslog. With a rest call I have to start the events generation and with another rest call I have to stop it. To achieve that, I created an ExecutorService with a single thread with a for loop inside the Runnable, but it does not stop at all. I tried to break the for loop with Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted after the shutdownNow() but it seems that it does not set the IsInterrupted to true. If I use the loop boolean, of course the loop stop but I can't create new thread with a 500 server error.
That's my code:
#Service
#Scope(value = ConfigurableBeanFactory.SCOPE_SINGLETON)
public class EventService {
final static Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(EventService.class);
private ConfigReader configReader;
private static ExecutorService executor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(2);
private EventsGenerator eventsGen;
private String test;
public EventService(ConfigReader configReader) {
this.configReader = configReader;
}
public void init(byte[] fileConfig) throws IOException {
configReader.read(fileConfig);
eventsGen = new EventsGenerator(configReader,configReader.getConfig().getProtocol());
Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(new Thread() {
public void run() {
eventsGen.stop();
try {
executor.awaitTermination(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
logger.error(e.getMessage());
}
}
});
executor.execute(eventsGen);
executor.shutdown();
/*
try {
executor.awaitTermination(Long.MAX_VALUE, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS );
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
logger.error(e.getMessage());
}
*/
}
public void shutdownService() {
eventsGen.stop();
executor.shutdownNow();
}
}
Run method of eventsGenerator:
#Override
public void run() {
//other things
int it;
for(i=0;i<max;i++) {
try {
if(Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted()) {
break;
}
if(!loop){
break;
}
NStringTemplate template = getNextTemplate();
String message = template.buildString(context);
if(config.getEndTime() != null) {
Date currentTime = context.getTime(false);
if(currentTime.after(config.getEndTime())) {
logger.info("L'endTime è stato superato");
break;
}
}
//other business logic
}catch(Exception exc){}
}
public void stop(){
setLoop(false);
}

How to implement synchronous method timeouts in Java?

I have an synchronous execution path which needs to either complete or timeout within a given time frame.
Let's say I have a class with a main() method in which I invoke method A(), which in-turn calls B(), and that in-turn calls C(), of the same or different classes, all synchronous, and without using an external resource like database , webservice, or file system (so not blocking IO, it's more like a CPU or memory intensive computation).
How do I code for its timeout in Java? I have looked at TimerTask but that is more of making the flow async and for scheduling tasks. Any other suggestions?

You should use ExecutorService to do that
ExecutorService executor = Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor();
Future<String> future = executor.submit(new Callable() {
public String call() throws Exception {
//do operations you want
return "OK";
}
});
try {
System.out.println(future.get(2, TimeUnit.SECONDS)); //timeout is in 2 seconds
} catch (TimeoutException e) {
System.err.println("Timeout");
}
executor.shutdownNow();

You can run a parallel thread which will wait for the specified timeout and interrupt the current thread, and then run A(). However a, b and c must be interruptible, that is to check periodically current thread interrupted flag and throw InterruptedException, otherwise it wont work
final Thread current = Thread.currentThread();
Thread timer = new Thread() {
public void run() {
try {
Thread.sleep(5000);
current.interrupt();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// timer stopped
}
};
};
try {
A(); // this throws InterruptedException if interrupted by timer
timer.interrupt(); // no timeout lets stop the timer
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// timeout
}

You can't do an synchronous call with a timeout but you can emulate it using a second thread. This is an example to do that:
package com.ardevco.example;
import java.util.Random;
import java.util.concurrent.Callable;
import java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException;
import java.util.concurrent.ExecutorService;
import java.util.concurrent.Executors;

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException;
class ExceptionThrower {
public static <R> R throwUnchecked(Throwable t) {
return ExceptionThrower.<RuntimeException, R> trhow0(t);
}
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
private static <E extends Throwable, R> R trhow0(Throwable t) throws E {
throw (E) t;
}
}
class TestApplicationException1 extends Exception {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
public TestApplicationException1(String string) {

}
};
class TestApplicationException2 extends Exception {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
public TestApplicationException2(String string) {
super(string);
}
};
class TestApplicationTimeoutException extends Exception {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
public TestApplicationTimeoutException(String string) {
super(string);
};
}
public class SynchronousTimeoutTester {
public static final long SYNC_METHOD_TIMEOUT_IN_MILLISECONDS = 2000L;
private final ExecutorService executorService = Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor();
public static void main(String[] args) {
SynchronousTimeoutTester tester = new SynchronousTimeoutTester();
/* call the method asynchronously 10 times */
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
try {
System.out.println("Result sync call: " + tester.getAsynchTest());
}
catch (TestApplicationException1 e) {
System.out.println("catched as TestApplicationException1: " + e);
}
catch (TestApplicationException2 e) {
System.out.println("catched as TestApplicationException2: " + e);
}
catch (TestApplicationTimeoutException e) {
System.out.println("catched as TestApplicationTimeoutException: " + e);
}
catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println("catched as InterruptedException: " + e);
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("catched as Exception: " + e);
}
}
tester.shutdown();
}
private void shutdown() {
executorService.shutdown();
try {
executorService.awaitTermination(Long.MAX_VALUE, TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS);
}
catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println("Error stopping threadpool:" + e);
}
}
private Integer testAsynch() throws TestApplicationException1, TestApplicationException2, InterruptedException {
Random random = new Random();
switch (random.nextInt(10)) {
case 0:
return 0;
case 1:
throw new TestApplicationException1("thrown TestApplicationException1");
case 2:
throw new TestApplicationException2("thrown TestApplicationException2");
case 3:
Thread.sleep(10000L);
return -1;
case 4:
throw new RuntimeException("thrown Exception");
default:
return random.nextInt(10);
}
}
private Integer getAsynchTest() throws TestApplicationException1, TestApplicationException2, Exception {
Integer dummy = null;
Future<Integer> testAsynchF = executorService.submit(
new Callable<Integer>() {
public Integer call() throws Exception {
return testAsynch();
}
});
try {
dummy = testAsynchF.get(SynchronousTimeoutTester.SYNC_METHOD_TIMEOUT_IN_MILLISECONDS, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
}
catch (ExecutionException e1) {
System.out.println("in getAsynchTest: ExecutionException: " + e1);
ExceptionThrower.throwUnchecked(e1.getCause());
}
catch (TimeoutException e1) {
System.out.println("in getAsynchTest: TimeoutException: " + e1);
throw new TestApplicationTimeoutException("TimeoutException" + e1);
}
catch (InterruptedException e1) {
System.out.println("in getAsynchTest: InterruptedException: " + e1);
throw new Exception(e1);
}
return dummy;
}
}

See also this post The approach is let your application care of timeout inside its logic. For that you can define some timer class and special checking method, e.g.:
public class TimeoutApp {
MyTimer timer;
Thread timerThread;
public static void main(String... args) {
new TimeoutApp().execute();
}
private void execute() {
try {
startTimer(1000);
action1();
checkTimeout();
action2();
checkTimeout();
action3();
stopTimer();
} catch (MyTimeoutException e) {
System.out.println("Interrupted on timeout!");
// ...clearing code if needed
System.exit(1);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println("Interrupted by exception!");
// ...clearing code if needed
e.printStackTrace();
System.exit(1);
}
}
private void action1() throws InterruptedException {
Thread.sleep(600);
System.out.println("action 1");
}
private void action2() throws InterruptedException {
Thread.sleep(500);
System.out.println("action 2");
}
private void action3() {
System.out.println("action 3");
}
private void checkTimeout() throws MyTimeoutException {
if (timer.isTimeoutReached()) {
throw new MyTimeoutException();
}
}
private void startTimer(long timeout) {
timer = new MyTimer(timeout);
timerThread = new Thread(timer);
timerThread.start();
}
private void stopTimer() {
timerThread.interrupt();
}
private class MyTimer implements Runnable {
private long timeout;
private boolean timeoutReached = false;
public MyTimer(long timeout) {
this.timeout = timeout;
}
public void run() {
long time = System.currentTimeMillis();
while (!timeoutReached && !Thread.interrupted()) {
if ((System.currentTimeMillis() - time) > timeout) {
timeoutReached = true;
}
}
}
public boolean isTimeoutReached() {
return timeoutReached;
}
}
private class MyTimeoutException extends Exception {
}
}

Java Executor not working on JdbcTemplate

I am trying to execute a query with a jdbcTemplate using an executor object but for some reason the program doesn't go inside the jdbcTemplate.
ExecutorService executor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(NUMBER_OF_CONCURRENT_THREADS);
executor.execute(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
inboundJdbcTemplate.query(selectQuery, new RowCallbackHandler() {
#Override
public void processRow(ResultSet rs) throws SQLException {//<-instruction pointer never goes to this line
try {
//buffer.put(buildDataPoint(rs, testPermutationId));
System.out.println(rs.getString(0));
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
}
}
});
try {
buffer.put(STOPPING_TOKEN);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Can anyone help me with this stupid bug?

I found a solution to the problem.
I needed a CompletionService in order to make sure that I know when the execution of the JdbcTemplate finishes.
{...
ExecutorService executor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(NUMBER_OF_CONCURRENT_THREADS);
CompletionService<String> completionService = new ExecutorCompletionService (executor);
completionService.submit(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
inboundJdbcTemplate.query(selectQuery, new RowCallbackHandler() {
#Override
public void processRow(ResultSet rs) throws SQLException {
try {
buffer.put(buildDP(rs, Id));
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}, "Success");
try{
Future<String> take1 = completionService.take();
String s = take1.get();
if(!"Success".equals(s)) throw new RuntimeException("Error Occured");
catch (InterruptedException | ExecutionException e) {
LOG.error(" Could not execute DataExtraction",e);}
executor.shutdown();
...}

How to stop timeout of a future

I'm computing a future for having a timeout in waiting for a serial event to happen:
Future<Response> future = executor.submit(new CommunicationTask(this, request));
response = new Response("timeout");
try {
response = future.get(timeoutMilliseconds, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
} catch (InterruptedException | TimeoutException e) {
future.cancel(true);
log.info("Execution time out." + e);
} catch (ExecutionException e) {
future.cancel(true);
log.error("Encountered problem communicating with device: " + e);
}
The CommunicationTask class has implemented the Observer interface to listen to an change from the serial port.
The problem is that reading from the serial port is relatively slow and even when a serial event is happening the time runs out and a TimeoutException is thrown. What can I do to stop the timeout clock of my future when a serial event is happening?
I tried it with an AtomicReference but that didn't change anything:
public class CommunicationTask implements Callable<Response>, Observer {
private AtomicReference atomicResponse = new AtomicReference(new Response("timeout"));
private CountDownLatch latch = new CountDownLatch(1);
private SerialPort port;
CommunicationTask(SerialCommunicator communicator, Request request) {
this.communicator = communicator;
this.message = request.serialize();
this.port = communicator.getPort();
}
#Override
public Response call() throws Exception {
return query(message);
}
public Response query(String message) {
communicator.getListener().addObserver(this);
message = message + "\r\n";
try {
port.writeString(message);
} catch (Exception e) {
log.warn("Could not write to port: " + e);
communicator.disconnect();
}
try {
latch.await();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
log.info("Execution time out.");
}
communicator.getListener().deleteObserver(this);
return (Response)atomicResponse.get();
}
#Override
public void update(Observable o, Object arg) {
atomicResponse.set((Response)arg);
latch.countDown();
}
}
What can I do to solve this problem?
EDIT:
Ok I had one error. I was counting down my latch befor setting the atomicResponse in my update function. Now it seems to work, but there's still the question if this approach is the right way to do so?

have you explored google's Guava 'future listener', it is based on Async future, hope following code snippet helps you....
import java.util.concurrent.Callable;
import java.util.concurrent.Executors;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import com.google.common.util.concurrent.FutureCallback;
import com.google.common.util.concurrent.Futures;
import com.google.common.util.concurrent.ListenableFuture;
import com.google.common.util.concurrent.ListeningExecutorService;
import com.google.common.util.concurrent.MoreExecutors;
public class SyncFutureExample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ListeningExecutorService service = MoreExecutors.listeningDecorator(Executors.newFixedThreadPool(1));
ListenableFuture<String> lf = service.submit(new CommuncationTask());
//no need for future.get() or future.get(10,time minutes)
//add callbacks(= async future listeners) ....
Futures.addCallback(lf, new FutureCallback<String>() {
public void onSuccess(String input) {
System.out.println(input + " >>> success");//gets a callback once task is success
}
public void onFailure(Throwable thrown) {
System.out.println(thrown + " >>> failure");//gets a callback if task is failed
}
});
service.shutdown();
}
}
class CommuncationTask implements Callable<String>{
public String call() throws Exception {
TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(15);// some dummy serious task .............
return "TaskDone";
}
}

Hope this will help. I won't comment on it in the hopes that everything is clear from the code.
class CommunicationTask implements Callable<String>, Observer {
volatile boolean ignoreTimeoutException;
public CommunicationTask(SerialCommunicator communicator, Request request) {
}
public String call() throws Exception {
Thread.sleep(1000);
return "done";
}
public void update(Observable o, Object arg) {
ignoreTimeoutException = true;
}
}
class FutureCommunicationTask extends FutureTask<String> {
private CommunicationTask ct;
public FutureCommunicationTask(CommunicationTask ct) {
super(ct);
this.ct = ct;
}
public String get(long timeout, TimeUnit unit) throws InterruptedException, ExecutionException, TimeoutException {
try {
return super.get(timeout, unit);
} catch (TimeoutException e) {
if (ct.ignoreTimeoutException) {
return get(); // no timeout wait
}
throw e;
}
}
}
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
CommunicationTask ct = new CommunicationTask(null, null);
FutureTask<String> fct = new FutureCommunicationTask(ct);
ExecutorService ex = Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor();
ex.execute(fct);
// uncomment this line and timeout will be cancelled
ct.update(null, null);
String res = fct.get(1, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
System.out.println(res);
}
}
