Java是一种多线程编程语言,这意味着我们可以使用Java开发多线程程序。多线程程序包含两个或多个可以同时运行的部分,并且每个部分可以同时处理不同的任务,从而可以最佳地利用可用资源,尤其是在计算机具有多个CPU的情况下。
根据定义,多任务是指多个进程共享诸如CPU之类的通用处理资源。多线程将多任务的概念扩展到应用程序中,您可以在其中将单个应用程序内的特定操作细分为各个线程。每个线程可以并行运行。 OS不仅在不同的应用程序之间分配处理时间,还在应用程序内的每个线程之间分配处理时间。
多线程使您可以编写一种方式,使多个活动可以在同一程序中同时进行。
线程在其生命周期中会经历各个阶段。例如,线程是先生,启动,运行然后死亡的。下图显示了线程的完整生命周期。
以下是生命周期的各个阶段-
新建-新线程以新状态开始其生命周期。它将保持这种状态,直到程序启动线程为止。它也称为出生线程。
Runnable接口-一个刚出生的线程启动后,该线程进入可运行状态。处于此状态的线程被视为正在执行其任务。
等待中-有时,线程在等待另一个线程执行任务时会转换为等待状态。仅当另一个线程发出信号通知等待的线程继续执行时,一个线程才转换回可运行状态。
定时等待-可运行线程可以在指定的时间间隔内进入定时等待状态。当该时间间隔到期或发生等待事件时,处于此状态的线程将转换回可运行状态。
终止(死) -可运行线程在完成其任务或终止时进入终止状态。
每个Java线程都有一个优先级,可以帮助操作系统确定线程调度的顺序。
Java线程优先级在MIN_PRIORITY(常数1)和MAX_PRIORITY(常数10)之间。默认情况下,每个线程的优先级为NORM_PRIORITY(常数5)。
具有较高优先级的线程对程序更重要,应在较低优先级的线程之前为其分配处理器时间。但是,线程优先级不能保证线程执行的顺序,并且很大程度上取决于平台。
如果您的类打算作为线程执行,则可以通过实现Runnable接口来实现。您将需要遵循三个基本步骤-
第一步,您需要实现Runnable接口提供的run()方法。该方法为线程提供了一个入口点,您将把完整的业务逻辑放入该方法中。以下是run()方法的简单语法-
public void run( )
第二步,您将使用以下构造函数实例化Thread对象-
Thread(Runnable threadObj, String threadName);
其中, threadObj是实现Runnable接口的类的实例,而threadName是赋予新线程的名称。
创建Thread对象后,您可以通过调用start()方法来启动它,该方法执行对run()方法的调用。以下是start()方法的简单语法-
void start();
这是一个创建新线程并开始运行它的示例-
class RunnableDemo implements Runnable {
private Thread t;
private String threadName;
RunnableDemo( String name) {
threadName = name;
System.out.println("Creating " + threadName );
}
public void run() {
System.out.println("Running " + threadName );
try {
for(int i = 4; i > 0; i--) {
System.out.println("Thread: " + threadName + ", " + i);
// Let the thread sleep for a while.
Thread.sleep(50);
}
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println("Thread " + threadName + " interrupted.");
}
System.out.println("Thread " + threadName + " exiting.");
}
public void start () {
System.out.println("Starting " + threadName );
if (t == null) {
t = new Thread (this, threadName);
t.start ();
}
}
}
public class TestThread {
public static void main(String args[]) {
RunnableDemo R1 = new RunnableDemo( "Thread-1");
R1.start();
RunnableDemo R2 = new RunnableDemo( "Thread-2");
R2.start();
}
}
这将产生以下结果-
Creating Thread-1
Starting Thread-1
Creating Thread-2
Starting Thread-2
Running Thread-1
Thread: Thread-1, 4
Running Thread-2
Thread: Thread-2, 4
Thread: Thread-1, 3
Thread: Thread-2, 3
Thread: Thread-1, 2
Thread: Thread-2, 2
Thread: Thread-1, 1
Thread: Thread-2, 1
Thread Thread-1 exiting.
Thread Thread-2 exiting.
创建线程的第二种方法是使用以下两个简单步骤创建一个扩展Thread类的新类。这种方法在处理使用Thread类中的可用方法创建的多个线程时提供了更大的灵活性。
您将需要重写Thread类中可用的run()方法。该方法为线程提供了一个入口点,您将把完整的业务逻辑放入该方法中。以下是run()方法的简单语法-
public void run( )
创建线程对象后,可以通过调用start()方法来启动它,该方法执行对run()方法的调用。以下是start()方法的简单语法-
void start( );
这是前面的程序重写以扩展Thread-
class ThreadDemo extends Thread {
private Thread t;
private String threadName;
ThreadDemo( String name) {
threadName = name;
System.out.println("Creating " + threadName );
}
public void run() {
System.out.println("Running " + threadName );
try {
for(int i = 4; i > 0; i--) {
System.out.println("Thread: " + threadName + ", " + i);
// Let the thread sleep for a while.
Thread.sleep(50);
}
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println("Thread " + threadName + " interrupted.");
}
System.out.println("Thread " + threadName + " exiting.");
}
public void start () {
System.out.println("Starting " + threadName );
if (t == null) {
t = new Thread (this, threadName);
t.start ();
}
}
}
public class TestThread {
public static void main(String args[]) {
ThreadDemo T1 = new ThreadDemo( "Thread-1");
T1.start();
ThreadDemo T2 = new ThreadDemo( "Thread-2");
T2.start();
}
}
这将产生以下结果-
Creating Thread-1
Starting Thread-1
Creating Thread-2
Starting Thread-2
Running Thread-1
Thread: Thread-1, 4
Running Thread-2
Thread: Thread-2, 4
Thread: Thread-1, 3
Thread: Thread-2, 3
Thread: Thread-1, 2
Thread: Thread-2, 2
Thread: Thread-1, 1
Thread: Thread-2, 1
Thread Thread-1 exiting.
Thread Thread-2 exiting.
以下是Thread类中可用的重要方法的列表。
Sr.No. | Method & Description |
---|---|
1 |
public void start() Starts the thread in a separate path of execution, then invokes the run() method on this Thread object. |
2 |
public void run() If this Thread object was instantiated using a separate Runnable target, the run() method is invoked on that Runnable object. |
3 |
public final void setName(String name) Changes the name of the Thread object. There is also a getName() method for retrieving the name. |
4 |
public final void setPriority(int priority) Sets the priority of this Thread object. The possible values are between 1 and 10. |
5 |
public final void setDaemon(boolean on) A parameter of true denotes this Thread as a daemon thread. |
6 |
public final void join(long millisec) The current thread invokes this method on a second thread, causing the current thread to block until the second thread terminates or the specified number of milliseconds passes. |
7 |
public void interrupt() Interrupts this thread, causing it to continue execution if it was blocked for any reason. |
8 |
public final boolean isAlive() Returns true if the thread is alive, which is any time after the thread has been started but before it runs to completion. |
先前的方法在特定的Thread对象上调用。 Thread类中的以下方法是静态的。调用静态方法之一对当前正在运行的线程执行操作。
Sr.No. | Method & Description |
---|---|
1 |
public static void yield() Causes the currently running thread to yield to any other threads of the same priority that are waiting to be scheduled. |
2 |
public static void sleep(long millisec) Causes the currently running thread to block for at least the specified number of milliseconds. |
3 |
public static boolean holdsLock(Object x) Returns true if the current thread holds the lock on the given Object. |
4 |
public static Thread currentThread() Returns a reference to the currently running thread, which is the thread that invokes this method. |
5 |
public static void dumpStack() Prints the stack trace for the currently running thread, which is useful when debugging a multithreaded application. |
下面的ThreadClassDemo程序演示了Thread类的某些方法。考虑一个实现Runnable的DisplayMessage类-
// File Name : DisplayMessage.java
// Create a thread to implement Runnable
public class DisplayMessage implements Runnable {
private String message;
public DisplayMessage(String message) {
this.message = message;
}
public void run() {
while(true) {
System.out.println(message);
}
}
}
以下是扩展Thread类的另一个类-
// File Name : GuessANumber.java
// Create a thread to extentd Thread
public class GuessANumber extends Thread {
private int number;
public GuessANumber(int number) {
this.number = number;
}
public void run() {
int counter = 0;
int guess = 0;
do {
guess = (int) (Math.random() * 100 + 1);
System.out.println(this.getName() + " guesses " + guess);
counter++;
} while(guess != number);
System.out.println("** Correct!" + this.getName() + "in" + counter + "guesses.**");
}
}
以下是使用上述类的主程序-
// File Name : ThreadClassDemo.java
public class ThreadClassDemo {
public static void main(String [] args) {
Runnable hello = new DisplayMessage("Hello");
Thread thread1 = new Thread(hello);
thread1.setDaemon(true);
thread1.setName("hello");
System.out.println("Starting hello thread...");
thread1.start();
Runnable bye = new DisplayMessage("Goodbye");
Thread thread2 = new Thread(bye);
thread2.setPriority(Thread.MIN_PRIORITY);
thread2.setDaemon(true);
System.out.println("Starting goodbye thread...");
thread2.start();
System.out.println("Starting thread3...");
Thread thread3 = new GuessANumber(27);
thread3.start();
try {
thread3.join();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println("Thread interrupted.");
}
System.out.println("Starting thread4...");
Thread thread4 = new GuessANumber(75);
thread4.start();
System.out.println("main() is ending...");
}
}
这将产生以下结果。您可以反复尝试该示例,每次都会得到不同的结果。
Starting hello thread...
Starting goodbye thread...
Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
.......
