## Uses of Interface
java.util.concurrent.Future

Packages that use Future
java.util.concurrent | Utility classes commonly useful in concurrent programming.
javax.swing | Provides a set of "lightweight" (all-Java language) components that, to the maximum degree possible, work the same on all platforms.
javax.xml.ws | This package contains the core JAX-WS APIs.

Uses of Future in java.util.concurrent

Subinterfaces of Future in java.util.concurrent
`interface` | `RunnableFuture<V>` A `Future` that is `Runnable`.
`interface` | `RunnableScheduledFuture<V>` A `ScheduledFuture` that is `Runnable`.
`interface` | `ScheduledFuture<V>` A delayed result-bearing action that can be cancelled.

Classes in java.util.concurrent that implement Future
`class` | `FutureTask<V>` A cancellable asynchronous computation.

Methods in java.util.concurrent that return Future
`Future<V>` | `ExecutorCompletionService.poll()`
`Future<V>` | `CompletionService.poll()` Retrieves and removes the Future representing the next completed task or `null` if none are present.
`Future<V>` | `ExecutorCompletionService.poll(long timeout, TimeUnit unit)`
`Future<V>` | `CompletionService.poll(long timeout, TimeUnit unit)` Retrieves and removes the Future representing the next completed task, waiting if necessary up to the specified wait time if none are yet present.
`
`<T> Future<T>`
` | `ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.submit(Callable<T> task)`
`
`<T> Future<T>`
` | `ExecutorService.submit(Callable<T> task)` Submits a value-returning task for execution and returns a Future representing the pending results of the task.
`
`<T> Future<T>`
` | `AbstractExecutorService.submit(Callable<T> task)`
`Future<V>` | `ExecutorCompletionService.submit(Callable<V> task)`
`Future<V>` | `CompletionService.submit(Callable<V> task)` Submits a value-returning task for execution and returns a Future representing the pending results of the task.
`Future<?>` | `ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.submit(Runnable task)`
`Future<?>` | `ExecutorService.submit(Runnable task)` Submits a Runnable task for execution and returns a Future representing that task.
`Future<?>` | `AbstractExecutorService.submit(Runnable task)`
`
`<T> Future<T>`
` | `ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor.submit(Runnable task, T result)`
`
`<T> Future<T>`
` | `ExecutorService.submit(Runnable task, T result)` Submits a Runnable task for execution and returns a Future representing that task.
`
`<T> Future<T>`
` | `AbstractExecutorService.submit(Runnable task, T result)`
`Future<V>` | `ExecutorCompletionService.submit(Runnable task, V result)`
`Future<V>` | `CompletionService.submit(Runnable task, V result)` Submits a Runnable task for execution and returns a Future representing that task.
`Future<V>` | `ExecutorCompletionService.take()`
`Future<V>` | `CompletionService.take()` Retrieves and removes the Future representing the next completed task, waiting if none are yet present.

Methods in java.util.concurrent that return types with arguments of type Future
`
`<T> List<Future<T>>`
` | `ExecutorService.invokeAll(Collection<? extends Callable<T>> tasks)` Executes the given tasks, returning a list of Futures holding their status and results when all complete.
`
`<T> List<Future<T>>`
` | `AbstractExecutorService.invokeAll(Collection<? extends Callable<T>> tasks)`
`
`<T> List<Future<T>>`
` | `ExecutorService.invokeAll(Collection<? extends Callable<T>> tasks, long timeout, TimeUnit unit)` Executes the given tasks, returning a list of Futures holding their status and results when all complete or the timeout expires, whichever happens first.
`
`<T> List<Future<T>>`
` | `AbstractExecutorService.invokeAll(Collection<? extends Callable<T>> tasks, long timeout, TimeUnit unit)`

Constructor parameters in java.util.concurrent with type arguments of type Future
`ExecutorCompletionService(Executor executor, BlockingQueue<Future<V>> completionQueue)` Creates an ExecutorCompletionService using the supplied executor for base task execution and the supplied queue as its completion queue.

Uses of Future in javax.swing

Classes in javax.swing that implement Future
`class` | `SwingWorker<T,V>` An abstract class to perform lengthy GUI-interacting tasks in a dedicated thread.

Uses of Future in javax.xml.ws

Subinterfaces of Future in javax.xml.ws
`interface` | `Response<T>` The `Response` interface provides methods used to obtain the payload and context of a message sent in response to an operation invocation.

Methods in javax.xml.ws that return Future
`Future<?>` | `Dispatch.invokeAsync(T msg, AsyncHandler<T> handler)` Invoke a service operation asynchronously.
