Method Details
- postRunnable
  
  void postRunnable(Runnable r)
- close
  
  void close(boolean skip_remaining_tasks)
  
  Finish with this AsynchronousRunner, and clean-up any Threads or resources it may hold.
  
  Parameters:
  
  skip_remaining_tasks - Should be regarded as a hint, not a guarantee. If true, pending, not-yet-performed tasks will be skipped, if possible. Currently executing tasks may or may not be interrupted. If false, all previously scheduled tasks will be completed prior to clean-up. The method returns immediately regardless.
- close
  
  void close()
  
  Clean-up resources held by this asynchronous runner as soon as possible. Remaining tasks are skipped if possible, and any tasks executing when close() is called may or may not be interrupted. Equivalent to close( true ).
