CountDownLatch

Posted 2020-10-05

CountDownLatch类位于java.util.concurrent包下，利用它可以实现类似计数器的功能。比如有一个任务A，它要等待其他4个任务执行完毕之后才能执行，此时就可以利用CountDownLatch来实现这种功能了。
CountDownLatch类只提供了一个构造器：
public CountDownLatch(int count) ;  //参数count为计数值
然后下面这3个方法是CountDownLatch类中最重要的方法：
 public void await() throws InterruptedException;   //调用await()方法的线程会被挂起，它会等待直到count值为0才继续执行
public boolean await(long timeout, TimeUnit unit) throws InterruptedException;  //和await()类似，只不过等待一定的时间后count值还没变为0的话就会继续执行
public void countDown();  //将count值减1
下面看一个例子大家就清楚CountDownLatch的用法了：
public class Test {
     public static void main(String[] args) {  
         final CountDownLatch latch = new CountDownLatch(2);
 
         new Thread(){
             public void run() {
                 try {
                     System.out.println("子线程"+Thread.currentThread().getName()+"正在执行");
                    Thread.sleep(3000);
                    System.out.println("子线程"+Thread.currentThread().getName()+"执行完毕");
                    latch.countDown();
                } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
             };
         }.start();
 
         new Thread(){
             public void run() {
                 try {
                     System.out.println("子线程"+Thread.currentThread().getName()+"正在执行");
                     Thread.sleep(3000);
                     System.out.println("子线程"+Thread.currentThread().getName()+"执行完毕");
                     latch.countDown();
                } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
             };
         }.start();
 
         try {
             System.out.println("等待2个子线程执行完毕...");
            latch.await();
            System.out.println("2个子线程已经执行完毕");
            System.out.println("继续执行主线程");
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
     }
}
