Fork-join in Java 7

[quote]One of the additions to the java.util.concurrent packages coming in Java™ 7 is a framework for fork-join style parallel decomposition. The fork-join abstraction provides a natural mechanism for decomposing many algorithms to effectively exploit hardware parallelism.[/quote]

汗...
Java 7不愧是kitchen-sink...不过这东西看起来又挺实用的，有些时候虽然觉得（在多处理器/多核心环境下）有些地方应该开多线程来做，不过要自己管理那么多东西也确实怪麻烦的。看一例子：

[quote]Listing 3. Solving the select-max problem with the fork-join framework

public class MaxWithFJ extends RecursiveAction {
    private final int threshold;
    private final SelectMaxProblem problem;
    public int result;

    public MaxWithFJ(SelectMaxProblem problem, int threshold) {
        this.problem = problem;
        this.threshold = threshold;
    }

    protected void compute() {
        if (problem.size < threshold)
            result = problem.solveSequentially();
        else {
            int midpoint = problem.size / 2;
            MaxWithFJ left = new MaxWithFJ(problem.subproblem(0, midpoint), threshold);
            MaxWithFJ right = new MaxWithFJ(problem.subproblem(midpoint + 
              1, problem.size), threshold);
            coInvoke(left, right);
            result = Math.max(left.result, right.result);
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SelectMaxProblem problem = ...
        int threshold = ...
        int nThreads = ...
        MaxWithFJ mfj = new MaxWithFJ(problem, threshold);
        ForkJoinExecutor fjPool = new ForkJoinPool(nThreads);

        fjPool.invoke(mfj);
        int result = mfj.result;
    }
}

不过这东西要是能配合匿名方法/闭包来做就更简洁了。
话说，[url=http://www.third-bit.com/~gvwilson]Greg Wilson[/url]很明显对这东西[url=http://pyre.third-bit.com/blog/archives/1222.html]不感冒[/url]。一提到调试器，这并行计算的痛处就又来了一个……
