/**
* <p>AsyncTask enables proper and easy use of the UI thread. This class allows to
* perform background operations and publish results on the UI thread without
* having to manipulate threads and/or handlers.</p>
*
* <p>An asynchronous task is defined by a computation that runs on a background thread and
* whose result is published on the UI thread. An asynchronous task is defined by 3 generic
* types, called <code>Params</code>, <code>Progress</code> and <code>Result</code>,
* and 4 steps, called <code>begin</code>, <code>doInBackground</code>,
* <code>processProgress</code> and <code>end</code>.</p>
*
* <h2>Usage</h2>
* <p>AsyncTask must be subclassed to be used. The subclass will override at least
* one method ({@link #doInBackground}), and most often will override a
* second one ({@link #onPostExecute}.)</p>
*
* <p>Here is an example of subclassing:</p>
* <pre class="prettyprint">
* private class DownloadFilesTask extends AsyncTask&lt;URL, Integer, Long&gt; {
* protected Long doInBackground(URL... urls) {
* int count = urls.length;
* long totalSize = 0;
* for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
* totalSize += Downloader.downloadFile(urls[i]);
* publishProgress((int) ((i / (float) count) * 100));
* }
* return totalSize;
* }
*
* protected void onProgressUpdate(Integer... progress) {
* setProgressPercent(progress[0]);
* }
*
* protected void onPostExecute(Long result) {
* showDialog("Downloaded " + result + " bytes");
* }
* }
* </pre>
*
* <p>Once created, a task is executed very simply:</p>
* <pre class="prettyprint">
* new DownloadFilesTask().execute(url1, url2, url3);
* </pre>
*
* <h2>AsyncTask's generic types</h2>
* <p>The three types used by an asynchronous task are the following:</p>
* <ol>
* <li><code>Params</code>, the type of the parameters sent to the task upon
* execution.</li>
* <li><code>Progress</code>, the type of the progress units published during
* the background computation.</li>
* <li><code>Result</code>, the type of the result of the background
* computation.</li>
* </ol>
* <p>Not all types are always used by an asynchronous task. To mark a type as unused,
* simply use the type {@link Void}:</p>
* <pre>
* private class MyTask extends AsyncTask&lt;Void, Void, Void&gt; { ... }
* </pre>
*
* <h2>The 4 steps</h2>
* <p>When an asynchronous task is executed, the task goes through 4 steps:</p>
* <ol>
* <li>{@link #onPreExecute()}, invoked on the UI thread immediately after the task
* is executed. This step is normally used to setup the task, for instance by
* showing a progress bar in the user interface.</li>
* <li>{@link #doInBackground}, invoked on the background thread
* immediately after {@link #onPreExecute()} finishes executing. This step is used
* to perform background computation that can take a long time. The parameters
* of the asynchronous task are passed to this step. The result of the computation must
* be returned by this step and will be passed back to the last step. This step
* can also use {@link #publishProgress} to publish one or more units
* of progress. These values are published on the UI thread, in the
* {@link #onProgressUpdate} step.</li>
* <li>{@link #onProgressUpdate}, invoked on the UI thread after a
* call to {@link #publishProgress}. The timing of the execution is
* undefined. This method is used to display any form of progress in the user
* interface while the background computation is still executing. For instance,
* it can be used to animate a progress bar or show logs in a text field.</li>
* <li>{@link #onPostExecute}, invoked on the UI thread after the background
* computation finishes. The result of the background computation is passed to
* this step as a parameter.</li>
* </ol>
*
* <h2>Threading rules</h2>
* <p>There are a few threading rules that must be followed for this class to
* work properly:</p>
* <ul>
* <li>The task instance must be created on the UI thread.</li>
* <li>{@link #execute} must be invoked on the UI thread.</li>
* <li>Do not call {@link #onPreExecute()}, {@link #onPostExecute},
* {@link #doInBackground}, {@link #onProgressUpdate} manually.</li>
* <li>The task can be executed only once (an exception will be thrown if
* a second execution is attempted.)</li>
* </ul>
