      • ImagingTask

        public ImagingTask​(java.lang.String name,
                   int loggingId)
        Creates a new instance of ImagingTask. Subclasses must *not* perform any initialization here: they should use prepare() instead. This constructor must return very quickly.

    • Method Detail

      • getName

        public java.lang.String getName()
        Returns the name of this task.
        Returns:
        the task name

      • getId

        public java.io.Serializable getId()
        Returns the unique id of this task.
        Returns:
        the task id

      • prepare

        public void prepare​(ImagingTaskProcessor processor)
             throws java.lang.Exception
        This method is performed in a local context before the task is scheduled to run - that is, this method is performed in a serialized fashion, possibly on a single computing node (depending on the processing engine). Subclasses can override this method for customizing the behaviour (that must not be computing intensive). The processor parameter can be used to query some properties of the ImagingTaskProcessor that could be used for alternate preparing strategies. The super method must be always called.
        Parameters:
        processor - the processor
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception

      • run

        protected abstract void run()
                     throws java.lang.Exception
        Concrete implementations should provide the task core in this method. This method is performed in a distributed context, if available.
        Throws:
        java.lang.Exception

      • getResult

        public final EditableImage getResult()
        Returns the result of this task. Must be implemented by subclasses.
        Returns:
        the result

      • setResult

        protected final void setResult​(EditableImage result)

      • getThrowable

        public java.lang.Throwable getThrowable()
        If the task ended with an error, a Throwable is returned by this method.
        Returns:
        the throwable

      • setThrowable

        public void setThrowable​(java.lang.Throwable throwable)

      • isRemoteExecutionOk

        public boolean isRemoteExecutionOk()
        If this method return true (the default), this task can be executed remotely. Otherwise it will be scheduled on the local node. Usually tasks which computation time is very quick and much shorter than the overhead to serialize data back and forth should return false.
        Returns:
        true if the task can be scheduled remotely

      • getStatistics

        public Statistics getStatistics()
        Returns the statistics collected by this task.
        Returns:
        the statistics

      • dispose

        public void dispose()
        Subclasses should release all the allocated resources when this method is called.
