Java: Force stopping of ExecutorService threads

Question

            S         


        

Answer 1

Now I have to stop threads from a pool. I am doing it such a way. It may be not a good idea. Comment, please, if so.

boolean isTerminated = mPoolThreads.isTerminated();
while (!isTerminated) {
    mPoolThreads.shutdownNow();
    isTerminated = mPoolThreads.isTerminated();
    Log.i(Constants.LOG_TAG, "Stop threads: the threads are not terminated yet");
}
Log.w(Constants.LOG_TAG, "Stop threads: Terminated");
