             Summary: Create a service implementation
                 Key: LANG-878
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-878
             Project: Commons Lang
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: offbynull
            Priority: Minor


It would be nice if commons lang had a Service class for threading -- similar 
to the one provided by Guava, but without Guava's poorly designed API and 
excess baggage. This would essentially be a thread with an initialization 
method and a shutdown method (along with the actual run method). The thread 
creating the service would block until the initialization finishes 
successfully, and the service would call shutdown when it was finished (or if 
it was interrupted). You would be able to query the state of the Service at any 
time.

It would live in the concurrent package.
