Method Detail

anyParallel

boolean anyParallel(groovy.lang.Closure cl)
Performs the any() operation using an asynchronous variant of the supplied closure to evaluate each collection's/object's element. The anyParallel() method is lazy and once a positive answer has been given by at least one element, it avoids running the supplied closure on subsequent elements. After this method returns, all the closures have been finished and the caller can safely use the result. It's important to protect any shared resources used by the supplied closure from race conditions caused by multi-threaded access. If any of the collection's elements causes the closure to throw an exception, the exception is re-thrown.


asConcurrent

static void asConcurrent(java.lang.Object collection, groovy.lang.Closure code)
Makes the collection concurrent for the passed-in block of code. The iterative methods like each or collect are given concurrent semantics inside the passed-in closure. Once the closure finishes, the original sequential semantics of the methods is restored.
Parameters:
collection - The collection to enhance
code - The closure to run with the collection enhanced.


collectParallel

java.lang.Object collectParallel(groovy.lang.Closure cl)
Iterates over a collection/object with the collect() method using an asynchronous variant of the supplied closure to evaluate each collection's element. After this method returns, all the closures have been finished and the caller can safely use the result. It's important to protect any shared resources used by the supplied closure from race conditions caused by multi-threaded access. If any of the collection's elements causes the closure to throw an exception, the exception is re-thrown.


countParallel

java.lang.Object countParallel(java.lang.Object filter)
Performs the count() operation using an asynchronous variant of the supplied closure to evaluate each collection's/object's element. After this method returns, all the closures have been finished and the caller can safely use the result. It's important to protect any shared resources used by the supplied closure from race conditions caused by multi-threaded access. If any of the collection's elements causes the closure to throw an exception, the exception is re-thrown.


eachParallel

java.lang.Object eachParallel(groovy.lang.Closure cl)
Iterates over a collection/object with the each() method using an asynchronous variant of the supplied closure to evaluate each collection's element. After this method returns, all the closures have been finished and all the potential shared resources have been updated by the threads. It's important to protect any shared resources used by the supplied closure from race conditions caused by multi-threaded access. If any of the collection's elements causes the closure to throw an exception, the exception is re-thrown.


eachWithIndexParallel

java.lang.Object eachWithIndexParallel(groovy.lang.Closure cl)

If any of the collection's elements causes the closure to throw an exception, the exception is re-thrown.


enhance

@SuppressWarnings("GroovyMultipleReturnPointsPerMethod")
private static java.lang.Object enhance(java.lang.Object collection)
Enhances to resulting collection so that parallel methods can be chained.


everyParallel

boolean everyParallel(groovy.lang.Closure cl)
Performs the all() operation using an asynchronous variant of the supplied closure to evaluate each collection's/object's element. After this method returns, all the closures have been finished and the caller can safely use the result. It's important to protect any shared resources used by the supplied closure from race conditions caused by multi-threaded access.

findAnyParallel

java.lang.Object findAnyParallel(groovy.lang.Closure cl)
Performs the find() operation using an asynchronous variant of the supplied closure to evaluate each collection's/object's element. Unlike with the find method, findAnyParallel() does not guarantee that the a matching element with the lowest index is returned. The findAnyParallel() method evaluates elements lazily and stops processing further elements of the collection once a match has been found. After this method returns, all the closures have been finished and the caller can safely use the result. It's important to protect any shared resources used by the supplied closure from race conditions caused by multi-threaded access. If any of the collection's elements causes the closure to throw an exception, the exception is re-thrown.

foldParallel

java.lang.Object foldParallel(groovy.lang.Closure cl)
Creates a Parallel Array out of the supplied collection/object and invokes its reduce() method using the supplied closure as the reduction operation. The closure will be effectively invoked concurrently on the elements of the collection. After all the elements have been processed, the method returns the reduction result of the elements in the collection. It's important to protect any shared resources used by the supplied closure from race conditions caused by multi-threaded access. Alternatively a DSL can be used to simplify the code. All collections/objects within the withPool block have a new min(Closure cl) method, which delegates to the GParsPoolUtil class.


foldParallel

java.lang.Object foldParallel(java.lang.Object seed, groovy.lang.Closure cl)
Creates a Parallel Array out of the supplied collection/object and invokes its reduce() method using the supplied closure as the reduction operation.

It's important to protect any shared resources used by the supplied closure from race conditions caused by multi-threaded access. Alternatively a DSL can be used to simplify the code. All collections/objects within the withPool block have a new min(Closure cl) method, which delegates to the GParsPoolUtil class.
Parameters:
seed - A seed value to initialize the operation


getParallel

After this method returns, all the closures have been finished and the caller can safely use the result. It's important to protect any shared resources used by the supplied closure from race conditions caused by multi-threaded access. If any of the collection's elements causes the closure to throw an exception, the exception is re-thrown.
