How to understand ` catch up` of Java Timer `scheduleAtFixedRate` method and `schedule` method actual run...












1















java.util.Timer#scheduleAtFixedRate(java.util.TimerTask, long, long) the doc say:




If an execution is delayed for any reason (such as garbage collection or other background activity), two or more executions will occur in rapid succession to "catch up."




And I do a test, code as follow:



public static void main(String args) {
Timer timer = new Timer();
TimerTask timerTask = new TimerTask() {
@Override
public void run() {
System.out.println(String.format("Task 实际运行时间:%s,需要运行时间:%s", new Date(), new Date(this.scheduledExecutionTime())));
try {
Thread.sleep(3000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
};

TimerTask timerTask1 = new TimerTask() {
@Override
public void run() {
System.out.println(String.format("Task 1 实际运行时间:%s,需要运行时间:%s", new Date().getTime(), new Date(this.scheduledExecutionTime())));
}
};
System.out.println("开始执行时间:" + new Date());
timer.schedule(timerTask, 0, 1000);//
timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(timerTask1, 0, 1000);
try {
Thread.sleep(5000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

}


an example of results:



开始执行时间:Tue Nov 20 15:56:50 CST 2018 --line 1
Task 实际运行时间:Tue Nov 20 15:56:50 CST 2018,需要运行时间:Tue Nov 20 15:56:50 CST 2018 --line 2
Task 1 实际运行时间:1542700613673,需要运行时间:Tue Nov 20 15:56:50 CST 2018,计时器:1 --line 3
Task 1 实际运行时间:1542700613673,需要运行时间:Tue Nov 20 15:56:51 CST 2018,计时器:2 --line 4
Task 实际运行时间:Tue Nov 20 15:56:53 CST 2018,需要运行时间:Tue Nov 20 15:56:53 CST 2018 --line 5


line 3,4 实际运行时间 is same time,and how to understand the catch up upon the method doc?



line 2,5 The Task run time need at less 3 second,and period is 1 second ,and the console why not per 1 second?

  • It doesn't answer your question but a TimerTask should be fast in order to maintain the scheduling. In other words, it should not take seconds. In case your task has a lot of work to do, create a new thread within the run method of your timertask.
