Interface Remote.Runnable
- All Superinterfaces:
Runnable,Serializable
- Enclosing class:
Remote
- Functional Interface:
- This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
Runnable interface should be implemented by any
class whose instances are intended to be executed by a thread. The
class must define a method of no arguments called run.
This interface is designed to provide a common protocol for objects that
wish to execute code while they are active. For example,
Runnable is implemented by class Thread.
Being active simply means that a thread has been started and has not
yet been stopped.
In addition, Runnable provides the means for a class to be
active while not subclassing Thread. A class that implements
Runnable can run without subclassing Thread
by instantiating a Thread instance and passing itself in
as the target. In most cases, the Runnable interface should
be used if you are only planning to override the run()
method and no other Thread methods.
This is important because classes should not be subclassed
unless the programmer intends on modifying or enhancing the fundamental
behavior of the class.
