@GwtCompatible public final class SettableFuture<V> extends AbstractFuture<V>
ListenableFuture whose result can be set by a set(Object), setException(Throwable) or setFuture(ListenableFuture) call. It can also, like any
 other Future, be cancelled.
 SettableFuture is the recommended ListenableFuture implementation when your
 task cannot be implemented with ListeningExecutorService, the various Futures
 utility methods, or ListenableFutureTask. Those APIs have less opportunity for developer
 error. If your needs are more complex than SettableFuture supports, use
 AbstractFuture, which offers an extensible version of the API.

SettableFuture that can be completed or cancelled by a later method call.public boolean set(@Nullable V value)
AbstractFutureFuture unless this Future has already been cancelled or
 set (including set asynchronously). When a call to this method returns,
 the Future is guaranteed to be done only if the call was
 accepted (in which case it returns true). If it returns false, the Future may have previously been set asynchronously, in which case its result may not be known
 yet. That result, though not yet known, cannot be overridden by a call to a set*

AbstractFutureFuture unless this Future has already been
 cancelled or set (including set asynchronously). When a call to this
 method returns, the Future is guaranteed to be done only if
 the call was accepted (in which case it returns true). If it returns false, the
 Future may have previously been set asynchronously, in which case its result may not be

AbstractFutureFuture to match the supplied input Future once the
 supplied Future is done, unless this Future has already been cancelled or set
 (including "set asynchronously," defined below).
 If the supplied future is done when this method is called and the call
 is accepted, then this future is guaranteed to have been completed with the supplied future by
 the time this method returns. If the supplied future is not done and the call is accepted, then
 the future will be set asynchronously. Note that such a result, though not yet known,
 cannot be overridden by a call to a set* method, only by a call to AbstractFuture.cancel(boolean).
 
If the call setFuture(delegate) is accepted and this Future is later
 cancelled, cancellation will be propagated to delegate. Additionally, any call to
 setFuture after any cancellation will propagate cancellation to the supplied Future.
 
Note that, even if the supplied future is cancelled and it causes this future to complete,
 it will never trigger interruption behavior. In particular, it will not cause this future to
 invoke the AbstractFuture.interruptTask() method, and the AbstractFuture.wasInterrupted() method will not
 return true.

AbstractFutureFuture's computation is complete or, if the computation is already complete, immediately.
 There is no guaranteed ordering of execution of listeners, but any listener added through this method is guaranteed to be called once the computation is complete.
Exceptions thrown by a listener will be propagated up to the executor. Any exception thrown
 during Executor.execute (e.g., a RejectedExecutionException or an exception
 thrown by direct execution) will be caught and
 logged.
 
Note: For fast, lightweight listeners that would be safe to execute in any thread, consider
 MoreExecutors.directExecutor(). Otherwise, avoid it. Heavyweight directExecutor
 listeners can cause problems, and these problems can be difficult to reproduce because they
 depend on timing. For example:
 
addListener. That caller may be a UI
 thread or other latency-sensitive thread. This can harm UI responsiveness.
 Future. That thread
 may be an internal system thread such as an RPC network thread. Blocking that thread may stall
 progress of the whole system. It may even cause a deadlock.
 directExecutor listeners.
 This is the most general listener interface. For common operations performed using
 listeners, see Futures. For a simplified but general listener interface, see addCallback().
 
Memory consistency effects: Actions in a thread prior to adding a listener happen-before its execution begins, perhaps in another thread.

AbstractFutureIf a cancellation attempt succeeds on a Future that had previously been set asynchronously, then the cancellation will also be propagated to the delegate
 Future that was supplied in the setFuture call.
 
Rather than override this method to perform additional cancellation work or cleanup,
 subclasses should override AbstractFuture.afterDone(), consulting AbstractFuture.isCancelled() and AbstractFuture.wasInterrupted() as necessary. This ensures that the work is done even if the future is
 cancelled without a call to cancel, such as by calling setFuture(cancelledFuture).
