How can you cancel a task submitted to ExecutorService using Future?
- future.cancel(true)
- future.interrupt()
- future.shutdown()
- future.stop()
In Java, you can cancel a task submitted to an ExecutorService using the cancel method on a Future object. The argument true passed to cancel(true) means an attempt to interrupt the task, while false means attempting a graceful cancellation. Using stop() and interrupt() is not recommended for canceling tasks, and shutdown() is used to shut down the entire ExecutorService, not to cancel a specific task.
