Class CyclicTimeouts<T extends CyclicTimeouts.Expirable>
- Type Parameters:
- T- the- CyclicTimeouts.Expirableentity type
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- Destroyable
An implementation of a timeout that manages many expirable entities whose
 timeouts are mostly cancelled or re-scheduled.
A typical scenario is for a parent entity to manage the timeouts of many children entities.
When a new entity is created, call schedule(Expirable) with the new entity so that
 this instance can be aware and manage the timeout of the new entity.
Eventually, this instance wakes up and iterates over the entities provided by iterator().
 During the iteration, each entity:
- may never expire (see CyclicTimeouts.Expirable.getExpireNanoTime(); the entity is ignored
- may be expired; onExpired(Expirable)is called with that entity as parameter
- may expire at a future time; the iteration records the earliest expiration time among all non-expired entities
When the iteration is complete, this instance is re-scheduled with the earliest expiration time calculated during the iteration.

Method Details- 
iterator- Returns:
- the entities to iterate over when this instance expires
 
- 
onExpiredInvoked during the iteration when the given entity is expired. This method may be invoked multiple times, and even concurrently, for the same expirable entity and therefore the expiration of the entity, if any, should be an idempotent action. - Parameters:
- expirable- the entity that is expired
- Returns:
- whether the entity should be removed from the iterator via Iterator.remove()
