public Interface ManagedTask

Execution property to be returned in getExecutionProperties() or ContextService.createContextualProxy() to provide a String that identifies the task. It may be the name or ID that allow management facilities to inspect the task to determine the intent of the task and its state. Implementations should not depend upon any thread execution context and should typically return only readily-available instance data to identify the task.

Execution property to be returned in getExecutionProperties() or ContextService.createContextualProxy() to provide hint about whether the task could take a long time to complete. Jakarta™ EE Product Providers may make use of this hint value to decide how to allocate thread resource for running this task. Valid values are "true" or "false".

Constant for the "SUSPEND" value of the TRANSACTION execution property. See ManagedTask#TRANSACTION.

Execution property to be returned in getExecutionProperties() or ContextService.createContextualProxy() to inform the Jakarta EE Product Provider under which transaction should the task or proxy method of contextual proxy object be executed in. Valid values are:

"SUSPEND" (the default if unspecified) - Any transaction that is currently active on the thread will be suspended and a jakarta.transaction.UserTransaction (accessible in the local JNDI namespace as "java:comp/UserTransaction") will be available. The original transaction, if any was active on the thread, will be resumed when the task or contextual proxy object method returns.

"USE_TRANSACTION_OF_EXECUTION_THREAD" - The contextual proxy object method will run within the transaction (if any) of the execution thread. A jakarta.transaction.UserTransaction will only be available if it is also available in the execution thread (for example, when the proxy method is invoked from a Servlet or Bean Managed Transaction). When there is no existing transaction on the execution thread, such as when running tasks that are submitted to a ManagedExecutorService or a ManagedScheduledExecutorService, a jakarta.transaction.UserTransaction will be available.

Constant for the "USE_TRANSACTION_OF_EXECUTION_THREAD" value of the TRANSACTION execution property. See ManagedTask#TRANSACTION.

Provides additional information to the ManagedExecutorService or ManagedScheduledExecutorService when executing this task.

Some standard property keys are defined in this class. Custom property keys may be defined but must not begin with "jakarta.enterprise.concurrent.".

Returns:Map<String, String>

A Map<String, String> containing additional execution properties, or null if no additional information is provided for this task.

The ManagedTaskListener to receive notification of lifecycle events of this task.

Returns:ManagedTaskListener

The ManagedTaskListener to receive notification of lifecycle events of this task, or null if it is not necessary to get notified of such events.
