Which three must be used when using the Java.util.concurrent package to execute a task that returns a result without blocking?
A.
ExecutorService
B.
Runnable
C.
Future
D.
Callable
E.
Thread
F.
Executor
Explanation:
The java.util.concurrent package defines three executor interfaces:
*(F)Executor, a simple interface that supports launching new tasks.
*(A)ExecutorService, a subinterface of Executor, which adds features that help manage the lifecycle, both of the individual tasks and of the executor itself.
* ScheduledExecutorService, a subinterface of ExecutorService, supports future and/or periodic execution of tasks.
Typically, variables that refer to executor objects are declared as one of these three interface types, not with an executor class type.
D: The ExecutorService interface supplements execute with a similar, but more versatile submit method. Like execute, submit accepts Runnable objects, but also accepts Callable objects, which allow the task to return a value.
