Hello, The "Processes and Threads" section of the documentation discusses how to use the Thread and AsyncTask but reading through the documentation I found out about the Executor and related classes* and I was wondering why there's nothing on the documentation about those classes. Executors look like a nice and clean solution for using threads without instantiating a "raw" Thread when AsyncTask is overkill.
Are there any special cases when Executors should and should not be used? Lastly, if anyone could explain the reason why using a ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor is preferable to a Timer? I've read the documentation but I didn't really get it. Thanks in advance *(ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor, ThreadPoolExecutor, ExecutorService, ScheduledExecutorService) -- 株式会社アルゴ ARGO Inc. 〒130-0012 東京都墨田区太平3-11-10 NTKオオノビル8階 ソアレス フランシスコ ( Soares Francisco ) Mail : soa...@argo.bz HP : http://www.argo.bz/ TEL：03-5619-4511 FAX：03-5619-4512 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
