public Class DelayTaskThrottler

extends Object
Class Inheritance
Imports
java.util.concurrent.Callable, .RejectedExecutionException, .ScheduledFuture, .ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor, .TimeUnit, org.slf4j.Logger, .LoggerFactory
This class allows to throttle a list of tasks. Use case: you have an event that occurs often, and every time you want to invoke the same task. However, if a lot of events happen in a relatively short time span, then only one task should be invoked.

Implementation Note

Once schedule(Runnable) is called, the task is delayed for a given time span. If during this time, schedule(Runnable) is called again, then the original task is canceled and the new one scheduled.
