com.google.common.util.concurrent.Executors should be renamed to Executors2 #8

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Given that the functionality of com.google.common.util.concurrent.Executors
is (from my inspection, anyway) supposed to complement that of
java.util.concurrent.Executors, it's reasonable to expect to import both
classes together.

Thus, in order to reduce import conflicts, using a name like Executors2
should be considered, in line with how Google Collections has a
Collections2 that complements java.util.Collections.

You're absolutely right; this has always bothered me, but it slipped my mind.

The plan is to rename this com.google.common.util.concurrent.MoreExecutors

MoreExecutors added and Executors deprecated for release 3.

Just curious why the naming convention for MoreExecutors differs from 
Collections2?

Is there a preferred convention (i.e., why not MoreCollections or Executors2)?

I presume it's because Collections2 was a naming mistake, but one that's too 
late to change. Of course, I'd love to hear from the horse's mouth, too. :-)

Yep, cky944 has it right...we sort of regret naming it Collections2, but we're 
stuck with it.
