 | 
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description | 
|---|---|
static ExecutorService | 
Executors.newCachedThreadPool(ThreadFactory threadFactory)
Creates a thread pool that creates new threads as needed, but
 will reuse previously constructed threads when they are
 available, and uses the provided
 ThreadFactory to create new threads when needed. 
 | 
static ExecutorService | 
Executors.newFixedThreadPool(int nThreads,
                  ThreadFactory threadFactory)
Creates a thread pool that reuses a fixed number of threads
 operating off a shared unbounded queue, using the provided
 ThreadFactory to create new threads when needed. 
 | 
static ScheduledExecutorService | 
Executors.newScheduledThreadPool(int corePoolSize,
                      ThreadFactory threadFactory)
Creates a thread pool that can schedule commands to run after a
 given delay, or to execute periodically. 
 | 
static ExecutorService | 
Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor(ThreadFactory threadFactory)
Creates an Executor that uses a single worker thread operating
 off an unbounded queue, and uses the provided ThreadFactory to
 create a new thread when needed. 
 | 
static ScheduledExecutorService | 
Executors.newSingleThreadScheduledExecutor(ThreadFactory threadFactory)
Creates a single-threaded executor that can schedule commands
 to run after a given delay, or to execute periodically. 
 | 
void | 
ThreadPoolExecutor.setThreadFactory(ThreadFactory threadFactory)
Sets the thread factory used to create new threads. 
 |
