/**
* A {@code Future} represents the result of an asynchronous
* computation. Methods are provided to check if the computation is
* complete, to wait for its completion, and to retrieve the result of
* the computation. The result can only be retrieved using method
* {@code get} when the computation has completed, blocking if
* necessary until it is ready. Cancellation is performed by the
* {@code cancel} method. Additional methods are provided to
* determine if the task completed normally or was cancelled. Once a
* computation has completed, the computation cannot be cancelled.
* If you would like to use a {@code Future} for the sake
* of cancellability but not provide a usable result, you can
* declare types of the form {@code Future<?>} and
* return {@code null} as a result of the underlying task.
*
* <p>
* <b>Sample Usage</b> (Note that the following classes are all
* made-up.)
* <pre> {@code
* interface ArchiveSearcher { String search(String target); }
* class App {
* ExecutorService executor = ...
* ArchiveSearcher searcher = ...
* void showSearch(final String target)
* throws InterruptedException {
* Future<String> future
* = executor.submit(new Callable<String>() {
* public String call() {
* return searcher.search(target);
* }});
* displayOtherThings(); // do other things while searching
* try {
* displayText(future.get()); // use future
* } catch (ExecutionException ex) { cleanup(); return; }
* }
* }}</pre>
*
* The {@link FutureTask} class is an implementation of {@code Future} that
* implements {@code Runnable}, and so may be executed by an {@code Executor}.
* For example, the above construction with {@code submit} could be replaced by:
* <pre> {@code
* FutureTask<String> future =
* new FutureTask<String>(new Callable<String>() {
* public String call() {
* return searcher.search(target);
* }});
* executor.execute(future);}</pre>
*
* <p>Memory consistency effects: Actions taken by the asynchronous computation
* <a href="package-summary.html#MemoryVisibility"> <i>happen-before</i></a>
* actions following the corresponding {@code Future.get()} in another thread.
*
* @see FutureTask
* @see Executor
* @since 1.5
* @author Doug Lea
* @param <V> The result type returned by this Future's {@code get} method
*/
