TaskExecutor (Spring Framework 5.2.12.RELEASE API)

All Superinterfaces:
Executor
All Known Subinterfaces:
AsyncListenableTaskExecutor, AsyncTaskExecutor, SchedulingTaskExecutor
All Known Implementing Classes:
ConcurrentTaskExecutor, ConcurrentTaskScheduler, DefaultManagedTaskExecutor, DefaultManagedTaskScheduler, SimpleAsyncTaskExecutor, SimpleThreadPoolTaskExecutor, SyncTaskExecutor, TaskExecutorAdapter, ThreadPoolTaskExecutor, ThreadPoolTaskScheduler, WorkManagerTaskExecutor, WorkManagerTaskExecutor
Functional Interface:
This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
```
@FunctionalInterface
public interface TaskExecutor
extends Executor
```
Simple task executor interface that abstracts the execution of a Runnable.
Implementations can use all sorts of different execution strategies, such as: synchronous, asynchronous, using a thread pool, and more.
Equivalent to JDK 1.5's Executor interface; extending it now in Spring 3.0, so that clients may declare a dependency on an Executor and receive any TaskExecutor implementation. This interface remains separate from the standard Executor interface mainly for backwards compatibility with JDK 1.4 in Spring 2.x.
Since:
2.0

```
void execute(Runnable task)
```
    Execute the given task.
    The call might return immediately if the implementation uses an asynchronous execution strategy, or might block in the case of synchronous execution.
    Specified by:
    execute in interface Executor
    Parameters:
    task - the Runnable to execute (never null)
    Throws:
    TaskRejectedException - if the given task was not accepted
