How can you ensure that a CompletableFuture runs on a specific Executor?
Multiple choiceHardchapter-15-curatedpremiumconcurrencycompletablefuture
Answer and explanation
Correct answer
D. Use.supplyAsync() with the executor.
Why
To run a CompletableFuture on a specific Executor, use.supplyAsync(Supplier, Executor). This allows the task to begin its execution asynchronously using the provided Executor, giving you control over the thread management.
