  /**
-  * A basic API for <em>structured concurrency</em>. {@code StructuredTaskScope} supports
-  * cases where a task splits into several concurrent subtasks, and where the subtasks must
-  * complete before the main task continues. A {@code StructuredTaskScope} can be used to
-  * ensure that the lifetime of a concurrent operation is confined by a <em>syntax block</em>,
-  * just like that of a sequential operation in structured programming.
+  * An API for <em>structured concurrency</em>. {@code StructuredTaskScope} supports cases
+  * where execution of a <em>task</em> (a unit of work) splits into several concurrent
+  * subtasks, and where the subtasks must complete before the task continues. A {@code
+  * StructuredTaskScope} can be used to ensure that the lifetime of a concurrent operation
+  * is confined by a <em>syntax block</em>, similar to that of a sequential operation in
+  * structured programming.
   *
-  * <h2>Basic operation</h2>
+  * <p> {@code StructuredTaskScope} defines the static method {@link #open() open} to open
+  * a new {@code StructuredTaskScope} and the {@link #close() close} method to close it.
+  * The API is designed to be used with the {@code try}-with-resources statement where
+  * the {@code StructuredTaskScope} is opened as a resource and then closed automatically.
+  * The code inside the block uses the {@link #fork(Callable) fork} method to fork subtasks.
+  * After forking, it uses the {@link #join() join} method to wait for all subtasks to
+  * finish (or some other outcome) as a single operation. Forking a subtask starts a new
+  * {@link Thread} to run the subtask. The thread executing the task does not continue
+  * beyond the {@code close} method until all threads started to execute subtasks have finished.
+  * To ensure correct usage, the {@code fork}, {@code join} and {@code close} methods may
+  * only be invoked by the <em>owner thread</em> (the thread that opened the {@code
+  * StructuredTaskScope}), the {@code fork} method may not be called after {@code join},
+  * the {@code join} method may only be invoked once, and the {@code close} method throws
+  * an exception after closing if the owner did not invoke the {@code join} method after
+  * forking subtasks.
   *
-  * A {@code StructuredTaskScope} is created with one of its public constructors. It defines
-  * the {@link #fork(Callable) fork} method to start a thread to execute a subtask, the {@link
-  * #join() join} method to wait for all subtasks to finish, and the {@link #close() close}
-  * method to close the task scope. The API is intended to be used with the {@code
-  * try-with-resources} statement. The intention is that code in the try <em>block</em>
-  * uses the {@code fork} method to fork threads to execute the subtasks, wait for the
-  * subtasks to finish with the {@code join} method, and then <em>process the results</em>.
-  * A call to the {@code fork} method returns a {@link Subtask Subtask} to representing
-  * the <em>forked subtask</em>. Once {@code join} is called, the {@code Subtask} can be
-  * used to get the result completed successfully, or the exception if the subtask failed.
+  * <p> As a first example, consider a task that splits into two subtasks to concurrently
+  * fetch resources from two URL locations "left" and "right". Both subtasks may complete
+  * successfully, one subtask may succeed and the other may fail, or both subtasks may
+  * fail. The task in this example is interested in the successful result from both
+  * subtasks. It waits in the {@link #join() join} method for both subtasks to complete
+  * successfully or for either subtask to fail.
   * {@snippet lang=java :
-  *     Callable<String> task1 = ...
-  *     Callable<Integer> task2 = ...
+  *    // @link substring="open" target="#open()" :
+  *    try (var scope = StructuredTaskScope.open()) {
   *
-  *     try (var scope = new StructuredTaskScope<Object>()) {
+  *        // @link substring="fork" target="#fork(Callable)" :
+  *        Subtask<String> subtask1 = scope.fork(() -> query(left));
+  *        Subtask<Integer> subtask2 = scope.fork(() -> query(right));
   *
-  *         Subtask<String> subtask1 = scope.fork(task1);   // @highlight substring="fork"
-  *         Subtask<Integer> subtask2 = scope.fork(task2);  // @highlight substring="fork"
+  *        // throws if either subtask fails
+  *        scope.join();  // @link substring="join" target="#join()"
   *
-  *         scope.join();                                   // @highlight substring="join"
+  *        // both subtasks completed successfully
+  *        // @link substring="get" target="Subtask#get()" :
+  *        return new MyResult(subtask1.get(), subtask2.get());
   *
-  *         ... process results/exceptions ...
-  *
-  *     } // close                                          // @highlight substring="close"
+  *    // @link substring="close" target="#close()" :
+  *    } // close
   * }
-  * <p> The following example forks a collection of homogeneous subtasks, waits for all of
-  * them to complete with the {@code join} method, and uses the {@link Subtask.State
-  * Subtask.State} to partition the subtasks into a set of the subtasks that completed
-  * successfully and another for the subtasks that failed.
-  * {@snippet lang=java :
-  *     List<Callable<String>> callables = ...
   *
-  *     try (var scope = new StructuredTaskScope<String>()) {
+  * <p> If both subtasks complete successfully then the {@code join} method completes
+  * normally and the task uses the {@link Subtask#get() Subtask.get()} method to get
+  * the result of each subtask. If one of the subtasks fails then the other subtask is
+  * cancelled (this will {@linkplain Thread#interrupt() interrupt} the thread executing the
+  * other subtask) and the {@code join} method throws {@link FailedException} with the
+  * exception from the failed subtask as the {@linkplain Throwable#getCause() cause}.
   *
-  *         List<Subtask<String>> subtasks = callables.stream().map(scope::fork).toList();
+  * <p> To allow for cancellation, subtasks must be coded so that they finish as soon as
+  * possible when interrupted. Subtasks that do not respond to interrupt, e.g. block on
+  * methods that are not interruptible, may delay the closing of a scope indefinitely. The
+  * {@link #close() close} method always waits for threads executing subtasks to finish,
+  * even if the scope is cancelled, so execution cannot continue beyond the {@code close}
+  * method until the interrupted threads finish.
   *
-  *         scope.join();
+  * <p> In the example, the subtasks produce results of different types ({@code String} and
+  * {@code Integer}). In other cases the subtasks may all produce results of the same type.
+  * If the example had used {@code StructuredTaskScope.<String>open()} then it could
+  * only be used to fork subtasks that return a {@code String} result.
   *
-  *         Map<Boolean, Set<Subtask<String>>> map = subtasks.stream()
-  *                 .collect(Collectors.partitioningBy(h -> h.state() == Subtask.State.SUCCESS,
-  *                                                    Collectors.toSet()));
+  * <h2>Joiners</h2>
   *
-  *     } // close
-  * }
+  * <p> In the example above, the task fails if any subtask fails. If all subtasks
+  * succeed then the {@code join} method completes normally. Other policy and outcome is
+  * supported by creating a {@code StructuredTaskScope} with a {@link Joiner} that
+  * implements the desired policy. A {@code Joiner} handles subtask completion and produces
+  * the outcome for the {@link #join() join} method. In the example above, {@code join}
+  * returns {@code null}. Depending on the {@code Joiner}, {@code join} may return a
+  * result, a stream of elements, or some other object. The {@code Joiner} interface defines
+  * factory methods to create {@code Joiner}s for some common cases.
+  *
+  * <p> A {@code Joiner} may <a id="Cancallation">cancel</a> the scope (sometimes called
+  * "short-circuiting") when some condition is reached that does not require the result of
+  * subtasks that are still executing. Cancelling the scope prevents new threads from being
+  * started to execute further subtasks, {@linkplain Thread#interrupt() interrupts} the
+  * threads executing subtasks that have not completed, and causes the {@code join} method
+  * to wakeup with the outcome (result or exception). In the above example, the outcome is
+  * that {@code join} completes with a result of {@code null} when all subtasks succeed.
+  * The scope is cancelled if any of the subtasks fail and {@code join} throws {@code
+  * FailedException} with the exception from the failed subtask as the cause. Other {@code
+  * Joiner} implementations may cancel the scope for other reasons.
+  *
+  * <p> Now consider another example that splits into two subtasks. In this example,
+  * each subtask produces a {@code String} result and the task is only interested in
+  * the result from the first subtask to complete successfully. The example uses {@link
+  * Joiner#anySuccessfulResultOrThrow() Joiner.anySuccessfulResultOrThrow()} to
+  * create a {@code Joiner} that makes available the result of the first subtask to
+  * complete successfully. The type parameter in the example is "{@code String}" so that
+  * only subtasks that return a {@code String} can be forked.
+  * {@snippet lang=java :
+  *    // @link substring="open" target="#open(Joiner)" :
+  *    try (var scope = StructuredTaskScope.open(Joiner.<String>anySuccessfulResultOrThrow())) {
   *
-  * <p> To ensure correct usage, the {@code join} and {@code close} methods may only be
-  * invoked by the <em>owner</em> (the thread that opened/created the task scope), and the
-  * {@code close} method throws an exception after closing if the owner did not invoke the
-  * {@code join} method after forking.
+  *        scope.fork(callable1);
+  *        scope.fork(callable2);
   *
-  * <p> {@code StructuredTaskScope} defines the {@link #shutdown() shutdown} method to shut
-  * down a task scope without closing it. The {@code shutdown()} method <em>cancels</em> all
-  * unfinished subtasks by {@linkplain Thread#interrupt() interrupting} the threads. It
-  * prevents new threads from starting in the task scope. If the owner is waiting in the
-  * {@code join} method then it will wakeup.
+  *        // throws if both subtasks fail
+  *        String firstResult = scope.join();
   *
-  * <p> Shutdown is used for <em>short-circuiting</em> and allow subclasses to implement
-  * <em>policy</em> that does not require all subtasks to finish.
+  *    }
+  * }
+  *
+  * <p> In the example, the task forks the two subtasks, then waits in the {@code
+  * join} method for either subtask to complete successfully or for both subtasks to fail.
+  * If one of the subtasks completes successfully then the {@code Joiner} causes the other
+  * subtask to be cancelled (this will interrupt the thread executing the subtask), and
+  * the {@code join} method returns the result from the successful subtask. Cancelling the
+  * other subtask avoids the task waiting for a result that it doesn't care about. If
+  * both subtasks fail then the {@code join} method throws {@code FailedException} with the
+  * exception from one of the subtasks as the {@linkplain Throwable#getCause() cause}.
+  *
+  * <p> Whether code uses the {@code Subtask} returned from {@code fork} will depend on
+  * the {@code Joiner} and usage. Some {@code Joiner} implementations are suited to subtasks
+  * that return results of the same type and where the {@code join} method returns a result
+  * for the task to use. Code that forks subtasks that return results of different
+  * types, and uses a {@code Joiner} such as {@code Joiner.awaitAllSuccessfulOrThrow()} that
+  * does not return a result, will use {@link Subtask#get() Subtask.get()} after joining.
   *
-  * <h2>Subclasses with policies for common cases</h2>
+  * <h2>Exception handling</h2>
   *
-  * Two subclasses of {@code StructuredTaskScope} are defined to implement policy for
-  * common cases:
-  * <ol>
-  *   <li> {@link ShutdownOnSuccess ShutdownOnSuccess} captures the result of the first
-  *   subtask to complete successfully. Once captured, it shuts down the task scope to
-  *   interrupt unfinished threads and wakeup the owner. This class is intended for cases
-  *   where the result of any subtask will do ("invoke any") and where there is no need to
-  *   wait for results of other unfinished subtasks. It defines methods to get the first
-  *   result or throw an exception if all subtasks fail.
-  *   <li> {@link ShutdownOnFailure ShutdownOnFailure} captures the exception of the first
-  *   subtask to fail. Once captured, it shuts down the task scope to interrupt unfinished
-  *   threads and wakeup the owner. This class is intended for cases where the results of all
-  *   subtasks are required ("invoke all"); if any subtask fails then the results of other
-  *   unfinished subtasks are no longer needed. If defines methods to throw an exception if
-  *   any of the subtasks fail.
-  * </ol>
+  * <p> A {@code StructuredTaskScope} is opened with a {@link Joiner Joiner} that
+  * handles subtask completion and produces the outcome for the {@link #join() join} method.
+  * In some cases, the outcome will be a result, in other cases it will be an exception.
+  * If the outcome is an exception then the {@code join} method throws {@link
+  * FailedException} with the exception as the {@linkplain Throwable#getCause()
+  * cause}. For many {@code Joiner} implementations, the exception will be an exception
+  * thrown by a subtask that failed. In the case of {@link Joiner#allSuccessfulOrThrow()
+  * allSuccessfulOrThrow} and {@link Joiner#awaitAllSuccessfulOrThrow() awaitAllSuccessfulOrThrow}
+  * for example, the exception is from the first subtask to fail.
   *
-  * <p> The following are two examples that use the two classes. In both cases, a pair of
-  * subtasks are forked to fetch resources from two URL locations "left" and "right". The
-  * first example creates a ShutdownOnSuccess object to capture the result of the first
-  * subtask to complete successfully, cancelling the other by way of shutting down the task
-  * scope. The main task waits in {@code join} until either subtask completes with a result
-  * or both subtasks fail. It invokes {@link ShutdownOnSuccess#result(Function)
-  * result(Function)} method to get the captured result. If both subtasks fail then this
-  * method throws a {@code WebApplicationException} with the exception from one of the
-  * subtasks as the cause.
+  * <p> Many of the details for how exceptions are handled will depend on usage. In some
+  * cases it may be useful to add a {@code catch} block to the {@code try}-with-resources
+  * statement to catch {@code FailedException}. The exception handling may use {@code
+  * instanceof} with pattern matching to handle specific causes.
   * {@snippet lang=java :
-  *     try (var scope = new StructuredTaskScope.ShutdownOnSuccess<String>()) {
+  *    try (var scope = StructuredTaskScope.open()) {
   *
-  *         scope.fork(() -> fetch(left));
-  *         scope.fork(() -> fetch(right));
+  *        ..
   *
-  *         scope.join();
+  *    } catch (StructuredTaskScope.FailedException e) {
   *
-  *         // @link regex="result(?=\()" target="ShutdownOnSuccess#result" :
-  *         String result = scope.result(e -> new WebApplicationException(e));
+  *        Throwable cause = e.getCause();
+  *        switch (cause) {
+  *            case IOException ioe -> ..
+  *            default -> ..
+  *        }
   *
-  *         ...
-  *     }
+  *    }
   * }
-  * The second example creates a ShutdownOnFailure object to capture the exception of the
-  * first subtask to fail, cancelling the other by way of shutting down the task scope. The
-  * main task waits in {@link #joinUntil(Instant)} until both subtasks complete with a
-  * result, either fails, or a deadline is reached. It invokes {@link
-  * ShutdownOnFailure#throwIfFailed(Function) throwIfFailed(Function)} to throw an exception
-  * if either subtask fails. This method is a no-op if both subtasks complete successfully.
-  * The example uses {@link Supplier#get()} to get the result of each subtask. Using
-  * {@code Supplier} instead of {@code Subtask} is preferred for common cases where the
-  * object returned by fork is only used to get the result of a subtask that completed
-  * successfully.
-  * {@snippet lang=java :
-  *    Instant deadline = ...
+  * In other cases it may not be useful to catch {@code FailedException} but instead leave
+  * it to propagate to the configured {@linkplain Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler uncaught
+  * exception handler} for logging purposes.
   *
-  *    try (var scope = new StructuredTaskScope.ShutdownOnFailure()) {
+  * <p> For cases where a specific exception triggers the use of a default result then it
+  * may be more appropriate to handle this in the subtask itself rather than the subtask
+  * failing and the scope owner handling the exception.
   *
-  *         Supplier<String> supplier1 = scope.fork(() -> query(left));
-  *         Supplier<String> supplier2 = scope.fork(() -> query(right));
+  * <h2>Configuration</h2>
   *
-  *         scope.joinUntil(deadline);
+  * A {@code StructuredTaskScope} is opened with {@linkplain Config configuration} that
+  * consists of a {@link ThreadFactory} to create threads, an optional name for monitoring
+  * and management purposes, and an optional timeout.
   *
-  *         // @link substring="throwIfFailed" target="ShutdownOnFailure#throwIfFailed" :
-  *         scope.throwIfFailed(e -> new WebApplicationException(e));
+  * <p> The {@link #open()} and {@link #open(Joiner)} methods create a {@code StructuredTaskScope}
+  * with the <a id="DefaultConfiguration"> <em>default configuration</em></a>. The default
+  * configuration has a {@code ThreadFactory} that creates unnamed
+  * <a href="{@docRoot}/java.base/java/lang/Thread.html#virtual-threads">virtual threads</a>,
+  * is unnamed for monitoring and management purposes, and has no timeout.
   *
-  *         // both subtasks completed successfully
-  *         String result = Stream.of(supplier1, supplier2)
-  *                 .map(Supplier::get)
-  *                 .collect(Collectors.joining(", ", "{ ", " }"));
+  * <p> The 2-arg {@link #open(Joiner, Function) open} method can be used to create a
+  * {@code StructuredTaskScope} that uses a different {@code ThreadFactory}, has a name for
+  * the purposes of monitoring and management, or has a timeout that cancels the scope if
+  * the timeout expires before or while waiting for subtasks to complete. The {@code open}
+  * method is called with a {@linkplain Function function} that is applied to the default
+  * configuration and returns a {@link Config Config} for the {@code StructuredTaskScope}
+  * under construction.
   *
-  *         ...
-  *     }
-  * }
+  * <p> The following example opens a new {@code StructuredTaskScope} with a {@code
+  * ThreadFactory} that creates virtual threads {@linkplain Thread#setName(String) named}
+  * "duke-0", "duke-1" ...
+  * {@snippet lang = java:
+  *    // @link substring="name" target="Thread.Builder#name(String, long)" :
+  *    ThreadFactory factory = Thread.ofVirtual().name("duke-", 0).factory();
+  *
+  *    // @link substring="withThreadFactory" target="Config#withThreadFactory(ThreadFactory)" :
+  *    try (var scope = StructuredTaskScope.open(joiner, cf -> cf.withThreadFactory(factory))) {
   *
-  * <h2>Extending StructuredTaskScope</h2>
+  *        scope.fork( .. );   // runs in a virtual thread with name "duke-0"
+  *        scope.fork( .. );   // runs in a virtual thread with name "duke-1"
   *
-  * {@code StructuredTaskScope} can be extended, and the {@link #handleComplete(Subtask)
-  * handleComplete} method overridden, to implement policies other than those implemented
-  * by {@code ShutdownOnSuccess} and {@code ShutdownOnFailure}. A subclass may, for example,
-  * collect the results of subtasks that complete successfully and ignore subtasks that
-  * fail. It may collect exceptions when subtasks fail. It may invoke the {@link #shutdown()
-  * shutdown} method to shut down and cause {@link #join() join} to wakeup when some
-  * condition arises.
+  *        scope.join();
   *
-  * <p> A subclass will typically define methods to make available results, state, or other
-  * outcome to code that executes after the {@code join} method. A subclass that collects
-  * results and ignores subtasks that fail may define a method that returns the results.
-  * A subclass that implements a policy to shut down when a subtask fails may define a
-  * method to get the exception of the first subtask to fail.
+  *     }
+  *}
   *
-  * <p> The following is an example of a simple {@code StructuredTaskScope} implementation
-  * that collects homogenous subtasks that complete successfully. It defines the method
-  * "{@code completedSuccessfully()}" that the main task can invoke after it joins.
+  * <p> A second example sets a timeout, represented by a {@link Duration}. The timeout
+  * starts when the new scope is opened. If the timeout expires before the {@code join}
+  * method has completed then the scope is <a href="#Cancallation">cancelled</a>. This
+  * interrupts the threads executing the two subtasks and causes the {@link #join() join}
+  * method to throw {@link TimeoutException}.
   * {@snippet lang=java :
-  *     class CollectingScope<T> extends StructuredTaskScope<T> {
-  *         private final Queue<Subtask<? extends T>> subtasks = new LinkedTransferQueue<>();

   * }
-  * <p> The implementations of the {@code completedSuccessfully()} method in the example
-  * invokes {@link #ensureOwnerAndJoined()} to ensure that the method can only be invoked
-  * by the owner thread and only after it has joined.
   *
-  * <h2><a id="TreeStructure">Tree structure</a></h2>
+  * <h2>Inheritance of scoped value bindings</h2>
+  *
+  * {@link ScopedValue} supports the execution of a method with a {@code ScopedValue} bound
+  * to a value for the bounded period of execution of the method by the <em>current thread</em>.
+  * It allows a value to be safely and efficiently shared to methods without using method
+  * parameters.
   *
-  * Task scopes form a tree where parent-child relations are established implicitly when
-  * opening a new task scope:
-  * <ul>
-  *   <li> A parent-child relation is established when a thread started in a task scope
-  *   opens its own task scope. A thread started in task scope "A" that opens task scope
-  *   "B" establishes a parent-child relation where task scope "A" is the parent of task
-  *   scope "B".
-  *   <li> A parent-child relation is established with nesting. If a thread opens task
-  *   scope "B", then opens task scope "C" (before it closes "B"), then the enclosing task
-  *   scope "B" is the parent of the nested task scope "C".
-  * </ul>
+  * <p> When used in conjunction with a {@code StructuredTaskScope}, a {@code ScopedValue}
+  * can also safely and efficiently share a value to methods executed by subtasks forked
+  * in the scope. When a {@code ScopedValue} object is bound to a value in the thread
+  * executing the task then that binding is inherited by the threads created to
+  * execute the subtasks. The thread executing the task does not continue beyond the
+  * {@link #close() close} method until all threads executing the subtasks have finished.
+  * This ensures that the {@code ScopedValue} is not reverted to being {@linkplain
+  * ScopedValue#isBound() unbound} (or its previous value) while subtasks are executing.
+  * In addition to providing a safe and efficient means to inherit a value into subtasks,
+  * the inheritance allows sequential code using {@code ScopedValue} be refactored to use
+  * structured concurrency.
   *
-  * The <i>descendants</i> of a task scope are the child task scopes that it is a parent
-  * of, plus the descendants of the child task scopes, recursively.
+  * <p> To ensure correctness, opening a new {@code StructuredTaskScope} captures the
+  * current thread's scoped value bindings. These are the scoped values bindings that are
+  * inherited by the threads created to execute subtasks in the scope. Forking a
+  * subtask checks that the bindings in effect at the time that the subtask is forked
+  * match the bindings when the {@code StructuredTaskScope} was created. This check ensures
+  * that a subtask does not inherit a binding that is reverted in the task before the
+  * subtask has completed.
   *
-  * <p> The tree structure supports:
-  * <ul>
-  *   <li> Inheritance of {@linkplain ScopedValue scoped values} across threads.
-  *   <li> Confinement checks. The phrase "threads contained in the task scope" in method
-  *   descriptions means threads started in the task scope or descendant scopes.
-  * </ul>
+  * <p> A {@code ScopedValue} that is shared across threads requires that the value be an
+  * immutable object or for all access to the value to be appropriately synchronized.
   *
-  * <p> The following example demonstrates the inheritance of a scoped value. A scoped
-  * value {@code USERNAME} is bound to the value "{@code duke}". A {@code StructuredTaskScope}
-  * is created and its {@code fork} method invoked to start a thread to execute {@code
-  * childTask}. The thread inherits the scoped value <em>bindings</em> captured when
-  * creating the task scope. The code in {@code childTask} uses the value of the scoped
-  * value and so reads the value "{@code duke}".
+  * <p> The following example demonstrates the inheritance of scoped value bindings. The
+  * scoped value USERNAME is bound to the value "duke" for the bounded period of a lambda
+  * expression by the thread executing it. The code in the block opens a {@code
+  * StructuredTaskScope} and forks two subtasks, it then waits in the {@code join} method
+  * and aggregates the results from both subtasks. If code executed by the threads
+  * running subtask1 and subtask2 uses {@link ScopedValue#get()}, to get the value of
+  * USERNAME, then value "duke" will be returned.
   * {@snippet lang=java :
+  *     // @link substring="newInstance" target="ScopedValue#newInstance()" :
   *     private static final ScopedValue<String> USERNAME = ScopedValue.newInstance();
   *

+  * When the method completes, the value of the {@code ScopedValue} reverts to its previous
+  * value, the value inherited from the thread executing the task.
   *
-  * <p> Unless otherwise specified, passing a {@code null} argument to a constructor
-  * or method in this class will cause a {@link NullPointerException} to be thrown.
+  * <p> A subtask may execute code that itself opens a new {@code StructuredTaskScope}.
+  * A task executing in thread T1 opens a {@code StructuredTaskScope} and forks a
+  * subtask that runs in thread T2. The scoped value bindings captured when T1 opens the
+  * scope are inherited into T2. The subtask (in thread T2) executes code that opens a
+  * new {@code StructuredTaskScope} and forks a subtask that runs in thread T3. The scoped
+  * value bindings captured when T2 opens the scope are inherited into T3. These
+  * include (or may be the same) as the bindings that were inherited from T1. In effect,

-      * task scope (except the current thread).
-      * <li> Wakes up the task scope owner if it is waiting in {@link #join()} or {@link
-      * #joinUntil(Instant)}. If the task scope owner is not waiting then its next call to
-      * {@code join} or {@code joinUntil} will return immediately.
+      *   <li> {@link #allSuccessfulOrThrow() allSuccessfulOrThrow()} creates a {@code Joiner}
+      *   that yields a stream of the completed subtasks for {@code join} to return when
+      *   all subtasks complete successfully. It cancels the scope and causes {@code join}
+      *   to throw if any subtask fails.
+      *   <li> {@link #anySuccessfulResultOrThrow() anySuccessfulResultOrThrow()} creates a
+      *   {@code Joiner} that yields the result of the first subtask to succeed for {@code
+      *   join} to return. It causes {@code join} to throw if all subtasks fail.
+      *   <li> {@link #awaitAllSuccessfulOrThrow() awaitAllSuccessfulOrThrow()} creates a
+      *   {@code Joiner} that waits for all successful subtasks. It cancels the scope and
+      *   causes {@code join} to throw if any subtask fails.
+      *   <li> {@link #awaitAll() awaitAll()} creates a {@code Joiner} that waits for all
+      *   subtasks. It does not cancel the scope or cause {@code join} to throw.
       * </ul>
       *
-      * <p> The {@linkplain Subtask.State state} of unfinished subtasks that complete at

-      * completes successfully with a result, or fails with an exception, at around
-      * the time that the task scope is shutdown may or may not <i>transition</i> to a
-      * terminal state.

-      *

-      * did not respond (or respond promptly) to thread interrupt. This method does not wait
-      * for these threads. When the owner invokes the {@link #close() close} method
-      * to close the task scope then it will wait for the remaining threads to finish.

-      * scopes are closed then it closes the underlying construct of each nested task scope
-      * (in the reverse order that they were created in), closes this task scope, and then
-      * throws {@link StructureViolationException}.
-      * Similarly, if this method is called to close a task scope while executing with
-      * {@linkplain ScopedValue scoped value} bindings, and the task scope was created
-      * before the scoped values were bound, then {@code StructureViolationException} is
-      * thrown after closing the task scope.
-      * If a thread terminates without first closing task scopes that it owns then
-      * termination will cause the underlying construct of each of its open tasks scopes to
-      * be closed. Closing is performed in the reverse order that the task scopes were
-      * created in. Thread termination may therefore be delayed when the task scope owner
-      * has to wait for threads forked in these task scopes to finish.
+      * @apiNote It is very important that a new {@code Joiner} object is created for each
+      * {@code StructuredTaskScope}. {@code Joiner} objects should never be shared with
+      * different scopes or re-used after a task is closed.
       *
-      * @implSpec This method may be overridden for customization purposes. If overridden,
-      * the subclass must invoke {@code super.close} to close the task scope.
+      * <p> Designing a {@code Joiner} should take into account the code at the use-site
+      * where the results from the {@link StructuredTaskScope#join() join} method are
+      * processed. It should be clear what the {@code Joiner} does vs. the application
+      * code at the use-site. In general, the {@code Joiner} implementation is not the
+      * place to code "business logic". A {@code Joiner} should be designed to be as
+      * general purpose as possible.
