This instance of AsyncTask.

Attributes

Remarks

Executes the task with the specified parameters. The task returns itself (this) so that the caller can keep a reference to it.

Note: this function schedules the task on a queue for a single background thread or pool of threads depending on the platform version. When first introduced, AsyncTasks were executed serially on a single background thread. Starting with android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#DONUT, this was changed to a pool of threads allowing multiple tasks to operate in parallel. Starting android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#HONEYCOMB, tasks are back to being executed on a single thread to avoid common application errors caused by parallel execution. If you truly want parallel execution, you can use the #executeOnExecutor version of this method with #THREAD_POOL_EXECUTOR; however, see commentary there for warnings on its use.

This method must be invoked on the UI thread.
