/**
* <p>
* AsyncTask enables proper and easy use of the UI thread. This class allows to
* perform background operations and publish results on the UI thread without
* having to manipulate threads and/or handlers.
* </p>
* <p/>
* <p>
* AsyncTask is designed to be a helper class around {@link Thread} and
* {@link Handler} and does not constitute a generic threading framework.
* AsyncTasks should ideally be used for short operations (a few seconds at the
* most.) If you need to keep threads running for long periods of time, it is
* highly recommended you use the various APIs provided by the
* <code>java.util.concurrent</code> pacakge such as {@link Executor},
* {@link ThreadPoolExecutor} and {@link FutureTask}.
* </p>
* <p/>
* <p>
* An asynchronous task is defined by a computation that runs on a background
* thread and whose result is published on the UI thread. An asynchronous task
* is defined by 3 generic types, called <code>Params</code>,
* <code>Progress</code> and <code>Result</code>, and 4 steps, called
* <code>onPreExecute</code>, <code>doInBackground</code>,
* <code>onProgressUpdate</code> and <code>onPostExecute</code>.
* </p>
* <p/>
* <div class="special reference"> <h3>Developer Guides</h3>
* <p>
* For more information about using tasks and threads, read the <a
* href="{@docRoot}
* guide/topics/fundamentals/processes-and-threads.html">Processes and
* Threads</a> developer guide.
* </p>
* </div>
* <p/>
* <h2>Usage</h2>
* <p>
* AsyncTask must be subclassed to be used. The subclass will override at least
* one method ( {@link #doInBackground}), and most often will override a second
* one ({@link #onPostExecute}.)
* </p>
* <p/>
* <p>
* Here is an example of subclassing:
* </p>
* <p/>
* <pre class="prettyprint">
* private class DownloadFilesTask extends AsyncTask<URL, Integer, Long> {
* protected Long doInBackground(URL... urls) {
* int count = urls.length;
* long totalSize = 0;
* for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
* totalSize += Downloader.downloadFile(urls[i]);
* publishProgress((int) ((i / (float) count) * 100));
* // Escape early if cancel() is called
* if (isCancelled()) break;
* }
* return totalSize;
* }
* <p/>
* protected void onProgressUpdate(Integer... progress) {
* setProgressPercent(progress[0]);
* }
* <p/>
* protected void onPostExecute(Long result) {
* showDialog("Downloaded " + result + " bytes");
* }
* }
* </pre>
* <p/>
* <p>
* Once created, a task is executed very simply:
* </p>
* <p/>
* <pre class="prettyprint">
* new DownloadFilesTask().execute(url1, url2, url3);
* </pre>
* <p/>
* <h2>AsyncTask's generic types</h2>
* <p>
* The three types used by an asynchronous task are the following:
* </p>
* <ol>
* <li><code>Params</code>, the type of the parameters sent to the task upon
* execution.</li>
* <li><code>Progress</code>, the type of the progress units published during
* the background computation.</li>
* <li><code>Result</code>, the type of the result of the background
* computation.</li>
* </ol>
* <p>
* Not all types are always used by an asynchronous task. To mark a type as
* unused, simply use the type {@link Void}:
* </p>
* <p/>
* <pre>
* private class MyTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> { ... }
* </pre>
* <p/>
* <h2>The 4 steps</h2>
* <p>
* When an asynchronous task is executed, the task goes through 4 steps:
* </p>
* <ol>
* <li>{@link #onPreExecute()}, invoked on the UI thread immediately after the
* task is executed. This step is normally used to setup the task, for instance
* by showing a progress bar in the user interface.</li>
* <li>{@link #doInBackground}, invoked on the background thread immediately
* after {@link #onPreExecute()} finishes executing. This step is used to
* perform background computation that can take a long time. The parameters of
* the asynchronous task are passed to this step. The result of the computation
* must be returned by this step and will be passed back to the last step. This
* step can also use {@link #publishProgress} to publish one or more units of
* progress. These values are published on the UI thread, in the
* {@link #onProgressUpdate} step.</li>
* <li>{@link #onProgressUpdate}, invoked on the UI thread after a call to
* {@link #publishProgress}. The timing of the execution is undefined. This
* method is used to display any form of progress in the user interface while
* the background computation is still executing. For instance, it can be used
* to animate a progress bar or show logs in a text field.</li>
* <li>{@link #onPostExecute}, invoked on the UI thread after the background
* computation finishes. The result of the background computation is passed to
* this step as a parameter.</li>
* </ol>
* <p/>
* <h2>Cancelling a task</h2>
* <p>
* A task can be cancelled at any time by invoking {@link #cancel(boolean)}.
* Invoking this method will cause subsequent calls to {@link #isCancelled()} to
* return true. After invoking this method, {@link #onCancelled(Object)},
* instead of {@link #onPostExecute(Object)} will be invoked after
* {@link #doInBackground(Object[])} returns. To ensure that a task is cancelled
* as quickly as possible, you should always check the return value of
* {@link #isCancelled()} periodically from {@link #doInBackground(Object[])},
* if possible (inside a loop for instance.)
* </p>
* <p/>
* <h2>Threading rules</h2>
* <p>
* There are a few threading rules that must be followed for this class to work
* properly:
* </p>
* <ul>
* <li>The AsyncTask class must be loaded on the UI thread. This is done
* automatically as of {@link android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#JELLY_BEAN}.</li>
* <li>The task instance must be created on the UI thread.</li>
* <li>{@link #execute} must be invoked on the UI thread.</li>
* <li>Do not call {@link #onPreExecute()}, {@link #onPostExecute},
* {@link #doInBackground}, {@link #onProgressUpdate} manually.</li>
* <li>The task can be executed only once (an exception will be thrown if a
* second execution is attempted.)</li>
* </ul>
* <p/>
* <h2>Memory observability</h2>
* <p>
* AsyncTask guarantees that all callback calls are synchronized in such a way
* that the following operations are safe without explicit synchronizations.
* </p>
* <ul>
* <li>Set member fields in the constructor or {@link #onPreExecute}, and refer
* to them in {@link #doInBackground}.
* <li>Set member fields in {@link #doInBackground}, and refer to them in
* {@link #onProgressUpdate} and {@link #onPostExecute}.
* </ul>
* <p/>
* <h2>Order of execution</h2>
* <p>
* When first introduced, AsyncTasks were executed serially on a single
* background thread. Starting with {@link android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#DONUT}
* , this was changed to a pool of threads allowing multiple tasks to operate in
* parallel. Starting with {@link android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#HONEYCOMB},
* tasks are executed on a single thread to avoid common application errors
* caused by parallel execution.
* </p>
* <p>
* If you truly want parallel execution, you can invoke
* {@link #executeOnExecutor(java.util.concurrent.Executor, Object[])} with
* {@link #THREAD_POOL_EXECUTOR}.
* </p>
