Multithreading in Android

 Multithreading

Multithreading is the process of executing multiple threads simultaneously in a single process. Multithreading is essential for performing time-consuming tasks in the background while keeping the main UI thread responsive.

Here's an example of how to use AsyncTask to perform a time-consuming task in the background:

public class MyAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<String, Integer, String> {

   

   @Override

   protected void onPreExecute() {

       super.onPreExecute();

       // Perform setup tasks before the background thread runs

   }

   

   @Override

   protected String doInBackground(String... params) {

       // Perform time-consuming task in the background

       return "Task completed";

   }

   

   @Override

   protected void onPostExecute(String result) {

       super.onPostExecute(result);

       // Perform tasks after the background thread completes

   }

}

To execute the AsyncTask, use the following code:

scss

MyAsyncTask task = new MyAsyncTask();

task.execute();
