Method Details

• runOnMainThread

  @NonNull TaskHandle runOnMainThread(@NonNull Runnable runnable)

  Runs a task on the main thread. If this function is called from the main thread, then the task will run immediately. Otherwise, it is put to the end of the queue of the main thread. Note: Depending on actual platform, destruction-time of passed in runnable might be unknown due to unpredictability of garbage collection. Therefore, runnable should not hold strong references to objects whose lifetimes are critical or references should be released at the end of execution.

  Parameters:

  runnable -

  Task that should be executed on the main thread. Destruction-time of runnable is unknown.

  Returns:

  Handle that will be used to manipulate execution of the task.

• postToMainThread

  @NonNull TaskHandle postToMainThread(@NonNull Runnable runnable, long delayMs)

  Posts a task to be executed on the main thread after some delay. If the delay is 0, the function puts the task at the end of the queue. The function does not wait for the task to be executed and returns immediately after the task has been put in the queue. Note: Depending on actual platform, destruction-time of passed in runnable might be unknown due to unpredictability of garbage collection. Therefore, runnable should not hold strong references to objects whose lifetimes are critical or references should be released at the end of execution.

  Parameters:

  runnable -

  Task that should be executed on the main thread. Destruction-time of runnable is unknown.

  delayMs -

  Delay in milliseconds.

  Returns:

  Handle that will be used to manipulate execution of the task.

Therefore, runnable should not hold strong references to objects whose lifetimes are critical or references should be released at the end of execution.

  Parameters:
