Incomplete javadoc for ScheduledExecutorService.scheduleAtFixedRate()

XMLWordPrintable

      Name: jl125535 Date: 07/19/2004


      URL OF PROBLEM DOCUMENTATION :
      http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/util/concurrent/ScheduledExecutorService.html#scheduleAtFixedRate(java.lang.Runnable,%20long,%20long,%20java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit)

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      The javadoc for ScheduledExecutorService.scheduleAtFixedRate() should say what happens when the previous thread hasn't finished when the time comes around again. Does it blindly try to restart the Thread/Runnable/Callable that is still running?
