Issue
Hi I am having problems sending emails asychronously. I have set up everything as indicated in this tutorial.
I have annotated my email service with @Service, set it up as a bean, annotated the method with @Async.
I have then @Autowired that service into a controller and used the method. Although it does not carry it out asynchronously and takes two seconds to get past emailSerivce.sendMail();
Any Idea what I'm doing wrong?
My Email Service is setup like this.
@Service
public class EmailService {
//get log4j handler
private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(EmailService.class);
// Sends an email with the following parameters
@Async
public Future<Page> sendEmail(CustomPropertiesForm cpf, String [] recipients, MimeBodyPart attachment, String subject, String content){
// Initialise local variables
Boolean success = false;
Boolean isAuthenticationRequired = false;
String smtpAuthUsername = null;
String smtpAuthPassword = null;
try{
Thread.sleep(5000);
logger.info("Sending Email");
// Build properties
Properties props = new Properties();
if(cpf.getSmtpAuthenticationRequired().equals("YES")){
isAuthenticationRequired = true;
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
smtpAuthUsername = cpf.getSmtpAuthUsername();
smtpAuthPassword = cpf.getSmtpAuthPassword();
} else {
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "false");
}
if (cpf.getSmtpSSLRequired().equalsIgnoreCase("YES")) {
//- See more at: http://www.jvmhost.com/articles/how-to-send-mail-with-javamail-and-tomcat#sthash.3IN3wreU.dpuf
props.put("mail.smtp.ssl.enable", "true");
props.put("mail.transport.protocol", cpf.getSmtpProtocol());
props.put("mail.smtps.port", cpf.getSmtpHostPort());
props.put("mail.smtps.ssl.trust", cpf.getSmtpHostName());
} else {
props.put("mail.smtp.ssl.enable", "false");
}
props.put("mail.smtp.host", cpf.getSmtpHostName());
props.put("mail.smtp.port", cpf.getSmtpHostPort());
props.put("mail.transport.protocol", cpf.getSmtpProtocol());
// Create mail Session
Session mailSession = Session.getDefaultInstance(props);
mailSession.setDebug(false);
Transport transport = mailSession.getTransport();
// Create Message
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(mailSession);
// Add recipients
for(String string : recipients){
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO,new InternetAddress(string));
}
// Set From Address
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(cpf.getDefaultApplicationEmailAddress()));
// Set subject
message.setSubject(subject);
// Set content
MimeBodyPart mbpText = new MimeBodyPart();
mbpText.setText(content);
MimeMultipart mp = new MimeMultipart();
mp.addBodyPart(mbpText);
message.setContent(mp);
// Add attachment
if(attachment != null){
mp.addBodyPart(attachment);
}
// Connect to mail server and send email
if(isAuthenticationRequired){
transport.connect(cpf.getSmtpHostName(), Integer.parseInt(cpf.getSmtpHostPort()), smtpAuthUsername, smtpAuthPassword);
transport.sendMessage(message, message.getRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO));
transport.close();
} else {
transport.connect();
transport.sendMessage(message, message.getRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO));
transport.close();
}
success = true;
logger.info("Email Sent");
} catch (Exception e){
logger.error(e.getMessage() + " " + e.getCause() + " " + e.fillInStackTrace());
System.out.println(e.getMessage() + " " + e.getCause() + " " + e.fillInStackTrace());
}
}
Page result = new Page();
result.setName("name");
result.setWebsite("website.com");
return new AsyncResult<Page>(result);
}
In my dispatcher servlet I set it up as a bean,
<bean id="emailService"
class="ie.premiumpower.services.EmailService">
</bean>
I then make use of this email service from my controller,
@Controller
public class NotSecureController extends AbstractController {
@Autowired
private EmailService emailService;
@RequestMapping("notsecure/taskSummary/shareTaskSummary.json")
public String getQuestions(
@RequestParam("taskInstanceId") int taskInstanceId,
@RequestParam("emailAdresses[]") String emailAddresses[]) {
try {
long currTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println("Email being sent at time: " + currTime);
Future<Page> sendEmail = emailService.sendEmail(cpf, emailAddresses, null, subject, content);
while (!(sendEmail.isDone())) {
Thread.sleep(10);
}
long aftTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
aftTime = aftTime - currTime;
System.out.println("Email finished being sent in time: " + aftTime);
System.out.println(": " + sendEmail.get());
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception: " + e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
}
Even when I change it to return a Future it still takes 7 seconds (with the sleep).

Solution
Try this :
Ok, can you try one thing, put the async thread to sleep for 5 seconds by calling Thread.sleep(5000). This way, you will know, that this is not only for creating async task 2 seconds are required. If that doesn't help, then remove the Thread.sleep, and do the following below.
If you would like to get the result back, use a Future tag, as mentioned below :
@Async
public Future<Page> sendEmail(params) throws InterruptedException{
return new AsyncResult<Page>(your_result);
}
In your controller :
Future<Page> sendEmail = sendEmail(params);
And check this way, if they are done :
while (!(sendEmail.isDone() ) {
Thread.sleep(10);
}
Lemme know.
