Methods in java.util.concurrent that return ScheduledFuture
Modifier and Type | Method | Description
--- | --- | ---
`ScheduledFuture<?>` | ScheduledExecutorService.`schedule​(Runnable command, long delay, TimeUnit unit)` | Submits a one-shot task that becomes enabled after the given delay.
`<V> ScheduledFuture<V>` | ScheduledExecutorService.`schedule​(Callable<V> callable, long delay, TimeUnit unit)` | Submits a value-returning one-shot task that becomes enabled after the given delay.
`ScheduledFuture<?>` | ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.`schedule​(Runnable command, long delay, TimeUnit unit)` |
`<V> ScheduledFuture<V>` | ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.`schedule​(Callable<V> callable, long delay, TimeUnit unit)` |
`ScheduledFuture<?>` | ScheduledExecutorService.`scheduleAtFixedRate​(Runnable command, long initialDelay, long period, TimeUnit unit)` | Submits a periodic action that becomes enabled first after the given initial delay, and subsequently with the given period; that is, executions will commence after `initialDelay`, then `initialDelay + period`, then `initialDelay + 2 * period`, and so on.
`ScheduledFuture<?>` | ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.`scheduleAtFixedRate​(Runnable command, long initialDelay, long period, TimeUnit unit)` | Submits a periodic action that becomes enabled first after the given initial delay, and subsequently with the given period; that is, executions will commence after `initialDelay`, then `initialDelay + period`, then `initialDelay + 2 * period`, and so on.
`ScheduledFuture<?>` | ScheduledExecutorService.`scheduleWithFixedDelay​(Runnable command, long initialDelay, long delay, TimeUnit unit)` | Submits a periodic action that becomes enabled first after the given initial delay, and subsequently with the given delay between the termination of one execution and the commencement of the next.
`ScheduledFuture<?>` | ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.`scheduleWithFixedDelay​(Runnable command, long initialDelay, long delay, TimeUnit unit)` | Submits a periodic action that becomes enabled first after the given initial delay, and subsequently with the given delay between the termination of one execution and the commencement of the next.
