当一个线程进入wait之后,就必须等其他线程notify/notifyall,使用notifyall,可以唤醒
所有处于wait状态的线程,使其重新进入锁的争夺队列中,而notify只能唤醒一个。注意,任何时候只有一个线程可以获得锁,也就是说只有一个线程可以运行synchronized 中的代码,notifyall只是让处于wait的线程重新拥有锁的争夺权,但是只会有一个获得锁并执行。
那么notify和notifyall在效果上又什么实质区别呢?
主要的效果区别是notify用得不好容易导致死锁,例如下面提到的例子。
public synchronized void put(Object o) {
while (buf.size()==MAX_SIZE) {
wait(); // called if the buffer is full (try/catch removed for brevity)
}
buf.add(o);
notify(); // called in case there are any getters or putters waiting
}
public synchronized Object get() {
// Y: this is where C2 tries to acquire the lock (i.e. at the beginning of the method)
while (buf.size()==0) {
wait(); // called if the buffer is empty (try/catch removed for brevity)
// X: this is where C1 tries to re-acquire the lock (see below)
}
Object o = buf.remove(0);
notify(); // called if there are any getters or putters waiting
