I need to execute some amount of tasks 4 at a time, something like this:
ExecutorService taskExecutor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(4);
while(...) {
tas
Use a CountDownLatch:
CountDownLatch latch = new CountDownLatch(totalNumberOfTasks);
ExecutorService taskExecutor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(4);
while(...) {
taskExecutor.execute(new MyTask());
}
try {
latch.await();
} catch (InterruptedException E) {
// handle
}
and within your task (enclose in try / finally)
latch.countDown();
