## Class ScheduledService<V>

- java.lang.Object
- - javafx.concurrent.Service<V>
  - - javafx.concurrent.ScheduledService<V>

- Type Parameters:
    `V` - The computed value of the ScheduledService
  All Implemented Interfaces:
    `Worker<V>`, `EventTarget`

      public abstract class ScheduledService<V>
      extends Service<V>

  The ScheduledService is a `Service` which will automatically restart itself after a successful execution, and under some conditions will restart even in case of failure. A new ScheduledService begins in the READY state, just as a normal Service. After calling `start` or `restart`, the ScheduledService will enter the SCHEDULED state for the duration specified by `delay`.

  Once RUNNING, the ScheduledService will execute its Task. On successful completion, the ScheduledService will transition to the SUCCEEDED state, and then to the READY state and back to the SCHEDULED state. The amount of time the ScheduledService will remain in this state depends on the amount of time between the last state transition to RUNNING, and the current time, and the `period`. In short, the `period` defines the minimum amount of time from the start of one run and the start of the next. If the previous execution completed before `period` expires, then the ScheduledService will remain in the SCHEDULED state until the period expires. If on the other hand the execution took longer than the specified period, then the ScheduledService will immediately transition back to RUNNING.

  If, while RUNNING, the ScheduledService's Task throws an error or in some other way ends up transitioning to FAILED, then the ScheduledService will either restart or quit, depending on the values for `backoffStrategy`, `restartOnFailure`, and `maximumFailureCount`.

  If a failure occurs and `restartOnFailure` is false, then the ScheduledService will transition to FAILED and will stop. To restart a failed ScheduledService, you must call restart manually.

  If a failure occurs and `restartOnFailure` is true, then the the ScheduledService may restart automatically. First, the result of calling `backoffStrategy` will become the new `cumulativePeriod`. In this way, after each failure, you can cause the service to wait a longer and longer period of time before restarting. Once the task completes successfully, the cumulativePeriod is reset to the value of `period`.

  ScheduledService defines static EXPONENTIAL_BACKOFF_STRATEGY and LOGARITHMIC_BACKOFF_STRATEGY implementations, of which LOGARITHMIC_BACKOFF_STRATEGY is the default value for backoffStrategy. After `maximumFailureCount` is reached, the ScheduledService will transition to FAILED in exactly the same way as if `restartOnFailure` were false.

  If the `period` or `delay` is changed while the ScheduledService is running, the new values will be taken into account on the next iteration. For example, if the `period` is increased, then the next time the ScheduledService enters the SCHEDULED state, the new `period` will be used. Likewise, if the `delay` is changed, the new value will be honored on the next restart or reset/start.

  The ScheduledService is typically used for use cases that involve polling. For example, you may want to ping a server on a regular basis to see if there are any updates. Such as ScheduledService might be implemented like this:

       ScheduledService<Document> svc = new ScheduledService<Document>() {
           protected Task<Document> createTask() {
               return new Task<Document>() {
                   protected Document call() {
                       // Connect to a Server
                       // Get the XML document
                       // Parse it into a document
                       return document;
                   }
               };
           }
       };
       svc.setPeriod(Duration.seconds(1));

  This example will ping the remote server every 1 second.

  Timing for this class is not absolutely reliable. A very busy event thread might introduce some timing lag into the beginning of the execution of the background Task, so very small values for the period or delay are likely to be inaccurate. A delay or period in the hundreds of milliseconds or larger should be fairly reliable.

  The ScheduledService in its default configuration has a default `period` of 0 and a default `delay` of 0. This will cause the ScheduledService to execute the task immediately upon `Service.start()`, and re-executing immediately upon successful completion.

  For this purposes of this class, any Duration that answers true to `Duration.isUnknown()` will treat that duration as if it were Duration.ZERO. Likewise, any Duration which answers true to `Duration.isIndefinite()` will be treated as if it were a duration of Double.MAX_VALUE milliseconds. Any null Duration is treated as Duration.ZERO. Any custom implementation of an backoff strategy callback must be prepared to handle these different potential values.

  The ScheduledService introduces a new property called `lastValue`. The lastValue is the value that was last successfully computed. Because a Service clears its `value` property on each run, and because the ScheduledService will reschedule a run immediately after completion (unless it enters the cancelled or failed states), the value property is not overly useful on a ScheduledService. In most cases you will want to instead use the value returned by lastValue.

  Implementer Note: The `Service.ready()`, `Service.scheduled()`, `Service.running()`, `succeeded()`, `Service.cancelled()`, and `failed()` methods are implemented in this class. Subclasses which also override these methods must take care to invoke the super implementation.

    - #### delay

          public final ObjectProperty<Duration> delayProperty

      The initial delay between when the ScheduledService is first started, and when it will begin operation. This is the amount of time the ScheduledService will remain in the SCHEDULED state, before entering the RUNNING state, following a fresh invocation of `Service.start()` or `Service.restart()`.

        `getDelay()`, `setDelay(Duration)`

    - #### period

          public final ObjectProperty<Duration> periodProperty

      The minimum amount of time to allow between the start of the last run and the start of the next run. The actual period (also known as `cumulativePeriod`) will depend on this property as well as the `backoffStrategy` and number of failures.
      See Also:
        `getPeriod()`, `setPeriod(Duration)`

    - #### backoffStrategy

          public final ObjectProperty<Callback<ScheduledService<?>,​Duration>> backoffStrategyProperty

      Computes the amount of time to add to the period on each failure. This cumulative amount is reset whenever the the ScheduledService is manually restarted.

        `getBackoffStrategy()`, `setBackoffStrategy(Callback)`

    - #### restartOnFailure

          public final BooleanProperty restartOnFailureProperty

      Indicates whether the ScheduledService should automatically restart in the case of a failure in the Task.
      See Also:
        `getRestartOnFailure()`, `setRestartOnFailure(boolean)`

    - #### maximumFailureCount

          public final IntegerProperty maximumFailureCountProperty

      The maximum number of times the ScheduledService can fail before it simply ends in the FAILED state. You can of course restart the ScheduledService manually, which will cause the current count to be reset.
      See Also:
        `getMaximumFailureCount()`, `setMaximumFailureCount(int)`

    - #### currentFailureCount

          public final ReadOnlyIntegerProperty currentFailureCountProperty

      The current number of times the ScheduledService has failed. This is reset whenever the ScheduledService is manually restarted.
      See Also:
        `getCurrentFailureCount()`

    - #### cumulativePeriod

          public final ReadOnlyObjectProperty<Duration> cumulativePeriodProperty

      The current cumulative period in use between iterations. This will be the same as `period`, except after a failure, in which case the result of the backoffStrategy will be used as the cumulative period following each failure. This is reset whenever the ScheduledService is manually restarted or an iteration is successful. The cumulativePeriod is modified when the ScheduledService enters the scheduled state. The cumulativePeriod can be capped by setting the `maximumCumulativePeriod`.
      See Also:
        `getCumulativePeriod()`

    - #### maximumCumulativePeriod

          public final ObjectProperty<Duration> maximumCumulativePeriodProperty

      The maximum allowed value for the cumulativePeriod. Setting this value will help ensure that in the case of repeated failures the back-off algorithm doesn't end up producing unreasonably large values for cumulative period. The cumulative period is guaranteed not to be any larger than this value. If the maximumCumulativePeriod is negative, then cumulativePeriod will be capped at 0. If maximumCumulativePeriod is NaN or null, then it will not influence the cumulativePeriod.
      See Also:
        `getMaximumCumulativePeriod()`, `setMaximumCumulativePeriod(Duration)`

    - #### lastValue

          public final ReadOnlyObjectProperty<V> lastValueProperty

      The last successfully computed value. During each iteration, the "value" of the ScheduledService will be reset to null, as with any other Service. The "lastValue" however will be set to the most recently successfully computed value, even across iterations. It is reset however whenever you manually call reset or restart.
      See Also:
        `getLastValue()`

  - ### Field Detail

    - #### EXPONENTIAL_BACKOFF_STRATEGY

      A Callback implementation for the `backoffStrategy` property which will exponentially backoff the period between re-executions in the case of a failure. This computation takes the original period and the number of consecutive failures and computes the backoff amount from that information.

      If the `service` is null, then Duration.ZERO is returned. If the period is 0 then the result of this method will simply be `Math.exp(currentFailureCount)`. In all other cases, the returned value is the same as `period + (period * Math.exp(currentFailureCount))`.

    - #### LOGARITHMIC_BACKOFF_STRATEGY

      A Callback implementation for the `backoffStrategy` property which will logarithmically backoff the period between re-executions in the case of a failure. This computation takes the original period and the number of consecutive failures and computes the backoff amount from that information.

      If the `service` is null, then Duration.ZERO is returned. If the period is 0 then the result of this method will simply be `Math.log1p(currentFailureCount)`. In all other cases, the returned value is the same as `period + (period * Math.log1p(currentFailureCount))`.

    - #### LINEAR_BACKOFF_STRATEGY

          public static final Callback<ScheduledService<?>,​Duration> LINEAR_BACKOFF_STRATEGY

      A Callback implementation for the `backoffStrategy` property which will linearly backoff the period between re-executions in the case of a failure. This computation takes the original period and the number of consecutive failures and computes the backoff amount from that information.

      If the `service` is null, then Duration.ZERO is returned. If the period is 0 then the result of this method will simply be `currentFailureCount`. In all other cases, the returned value is the same as `period + (period * currentFailureCount)`.
