26  /**
27   * A {@code SubjectCallable} associates a {@link Subject Subject} with a target/delegate
28   * {@link Callable Callable} to ensure proper {@code Subject} thread-state management when the {@code Callable} executes.
29   * This ensures that any calls to {@code SecurityUtils.}{@link org.apache.shiro.SecurityUtils#getSubject() getSubject()}
30   * during the target {@code Callable}'s execution still work correctly even if the {@code Callable} executes on a
31   * different thread than the one that created it.  This allows {@code Subject} access during asynchronous operations.
32   * <p/>
33   * When instances of this class execute (typically via a {@link java.util.concurrent.ExecutorService ExecutorService}),
34   * the following occurs:
35   * <ol>
36   * <li>The specified Subject any of its associated thread state is first bound to the thread that executes the
37   * {@code Callable}.</li>
38   * <li>The delegate/target {@code Callable} is {@link java.util.concurrent.Callable#call() executed}</li>
39   * <li>The previous thread state that might have existed before the {@code Subject} was bound is fully restored</li>
40   * </ol>
41   * <p/>
42   * This behavior ensures that the thread that executes this {@code Callable}, which is often a different thread than
43   * the one that created the instance, retains a {@code Subject} to support {@code SecurityUtils.getSubject()}
44   * invocations. It also guarantees that the running thread remains 'clean' in any thread-pooled environments.
45   *
46   * <h3>Usage</h3>
47   *
48   * This is typically considered a support class and is not often directly referenced.  Most people prefer to use
49   * the {@code Subject.}{@link Subject#associateWith(Callable) associateWith} method, which will automatically return
50   * an instance of this class.
51   * <p/>
52   * An even more convenient alternative is to use a
53   * {@link org.apache.shiro.concurrent.SubjectAwareExecutorService SubjectAwareExecutorService}, which
54   * transparently uses instances of this class.
55   *
