myCode is following:
I want to know why zhangsan and lisi are both can print :
李四9锁对象：1522503870
张三9锁对象：1522503870
public class TicketConsumer implements Runnable {
private Integer i;
public TicketConsumer(int i) {
super();
this.i = i;
}
#Override
public void run() {
while (true) {
System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + i + "锁对象before：" + System.identityHashCode(i));
synchronized (i) {
System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + i + "锁对象：" + System.identityHashCode(i));
if (i > 0) {
try {
Thread.sleep(100); // 模拟抢票延迟
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + "抢到了第" + i-- + "张票");
} else {
return;
}
}
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
TicketConsumer ticket = new TicketConsumer(new Integer(10));
Thread t1 = new Thread(ticket, "张三");
Thread t2 = new Thread(ticket, "李四");
t1.start();
t2.start();
}
}
the result is :
张三10锁对象before：1417180225
李四10锁对象before：1417180225
张三10锁对象：1417180225
张三抢到了第10张票
张三9锁对象before：1522503870
李四9锁对象：1522503870
张三9锁对象：1522503870
李四抢到了第9张票
李四8锁对象before：2045992545
李四8锁对象：2045992545
张三抢到了第9张票
I want to know why 张三 and 李四 both can get:
李四9锁对象：1522503870
张三9锁对象：1522503870
I might be wrong, but when you do i--, you can see that System.identityHashCode(i) changes, so another thread that was waiting outside the synchronized block can now enter it. Synchronizing on objects that change identity/reference is not a good idea, try synchronizing on a Stack and debug with stack.push(...): that will not change reference.
My code stops at "Producer started". Why wait() doesn't free lock? I use the same object in synchronized section, but it doesn't work.
class Processor {
public void produce() throws InterruptedException {
synchronized (this) {
System.out.println("Producer started");
wait();
System.out.println("Producer ended");
}
}
public void consume() throws InterruptedException {
System.out.println("Consumer started");
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
synchronized (this) {
scanner.nextLine();
System.out.println("go to producer");
notify();
Thread.sleep(1000);
System.out.println("Consumer ended");
}
}
}
While I am running this code in different threads, I am using the same Processor object
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
Processor processor = new Processor();
Thread t1 = new Thread(() -> {
try {
processor.produce();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {}
});
Thread t2 = new Thread(() -> {
try {
processor.consume();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {}
});
t1.run();
t2.run();
t1.join();
t2.join();
}
}
Maybe try:
t1.start ();
t2.start ();
instead of
t1.run ();
t2.run ();
The problem here is that you call run() methods on Threads. You should use start() if you're about to run it in separate thread.
I have been learning multithreading in Java since recently and I encountered an example in the book. It goes something like this.
class NewThread implements Runnable {
String name;
Thread t;
boolean suspendFlag;
NewThread(String threadname) {
name = threadname;
t = new Thread(this, name);
System.out.println("New thread: " + t);
suspendFlag = false;
t.start();
}
public void run() {
try {
for(int i = 15; i > 0; i--) {
System.out.println(name + ": " + i);
Thread.sleep(200);
synchronized(this) {
while(suspendFlag) {
wait();
}
}
}
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println(name + " interrupted.");
}
System.out.println(name + " exiting.");
}
synchronized void mysuspend() {
suspendFlag = true;
}
synchronized void myresume() {
suspendFlag = false;
notify();
}
}
class Te {
public static void main(String args[]) {
NewThread ob1 = new NewThread("One");
NewThread ob2 = new NewThread("Two");
try {
Thread.sleep(1000);
ob1.mysuspend();
System.out.println("Suspending thread One");
Thread.sleep(1000);
ob1.myresume();
System.out.println("Resuming thread One");
ob2.mysuspend();
System.out.println("Suspending thread Two");
Thread.sleep(1000);
ob2.myresume();
System.out.println("Resuming thread Two");
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println("Main thread Interrupted");
}
try {
System.out.println("Waiting for threads to finish.");
ob1.t.join();
ob2.t.join();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println("Main thread Interrupted");
}
System.out.println("Main thread exiting.");
}
}
Now in this example as you can see, there is a resume and a suspend method which gets called a couple of times in the program's main method. But when I remove the synchronized block in the run method, it displays an error something like this.
Exception in thread "Two" java.lang.IllegalMonitorStateException
I acually wanted to know, why do we need the synchronized block for the while statement. Doesn't the while resume when the value of suspendFlag change?
Here's what could happen if there was no synchronization:
Thread A could check suspendFlag and find it to be true,
Thread B could set suspendFlag=false; and then call notify();
Thread A could then call wait() (because suspendFlag was true when it checked.), and now Thread A is hung, waiting for a notification that will never happen.
The synchronization prevents thread B from changing the suspendFlag in between the moment when thread A checked it, and the moment when thread A actually begins to wait for the notification.
So I have a Thread wherein ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor is created with periodic Task, so I want to stop my ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor from Task when condition occurs.
After that from Thread wherein ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor is existed to make a notify to another Thread. Perhaps I did something wrong, I cannot to send notify from InnerThread to parent Thread Buyer. After that from Buyer sending another notify to MasterContainer.
How can I do this?
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.concurrent.*;
public class Buyer implements Runnable {
private CommonObj cmnObj;
public Buyer(CommonObj msg) {
this.cmnObj = cmnObj;
}
#Override
public void run() {
String name = Thread.currentThread().getName();
System.out.println(name + " is starting");
ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor sch = (ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor)
Executors.newScheduledThreadPool(1);
sch.setRemoveOnCancelPolicy(true);
FutureRunnable periodicTask = new FutureRunnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
try {
System.out.println("\t periodicTask Execution Time: "
+ ScheduledExample.fmt.format(new Date()));
try {
Thread.sleep(2 * 1000);
synchronized (this) {
System.out.println("\t periodicTask need to close: "
+ ScheduledExample.fmt.format(new Date()));
this.getFuture().cancel(true);
System.out.println("\t periodicTask cancelled: "
+ ScheduledExample.fmt.format(new Date()));
this.notify();
return;
}
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println("\t periodicTask End Time: "
+ ScheduledExample.fmt.format(new Date()));
} catch (Exception e) {
}
}
};
Future<?> periodicFuture = sch.scheduleAtFixedRate(periodicTask, 3, 3, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
periodicTask.setFuture(periodicFuture);
synchronized (sch) {
try {
System.out.println(name + " is before wait");
sch.wait();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println(name + " is before notify");
this.notify();
}
System.out.println(name + " is ended");
}
}
abstract class FutureRunnable implements Runnable {
private Future<?> future;
public Future<?> getFuture() {
return future;
}
public void setFuture(Future<?> future) {
this.future = future;
}
}
In your code, your inner task syncronized on periodicTask and outer syncronized on sch, this does not work.
If you want to syncronize inner and outer thread, you should syncronize on the same object, as well as call wait and notify on the same object.
I have tired this question, and i ended up with some doubts. Please help me out
Doubt : If any thread is in wait state , and no other thread is notifying that one , so will it never come to and end ? Even after using wait(long milliseconds).
For Code : What my requirement is from the code(Please Refer My Code) :
a : Should print "Even Thread Finish " and "Odd Thread Finish" (Order is not imp , but must print both)
b: Also in main function should print " Exit Main Thread"
What is actually happening :
After lot of runs , in some cases , it prints "Even Thread Finish" then hangs here or vice-versa. In some cases it prints both.
Also it never prints "Exit Main Thread".
So How to modify code , so it must print all 3 statement .(Of Course "Exit Main.. " in last , as i am using join for main.)
In brief : Main start-> t1 start -> t2 start ,, then i need t2/t1 finish -> main finish.
Please help me out for this problem

Although this is not the exact answer of your question, but this implementation is an alternative of your problem .
public class EvenOddThreads {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Thread odd = new Thread(new OddThread(), "oddThread");
Thread even = new Thread(new EvenThread(), "Even Thread");
odd.start();
even.start();
try {
odd.join();
even.join();
System.out.println("Main thread exited");
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
class OddThread implements Runnable{
public void run() {
synchronized (CommonUtil.mLock) {
System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName()+"---> job starting");
int i = 1;
while(i<50){
System.out.print(i + "\t");
i = i + 2;
CommonUtil.mLock.notify();
try {
CommonUtil.mLock.wait();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
System.out.println("OddThread---> job completed");
CommonUtil.mLock.notify();
}
}
}
class EvenThread implements Runnable{
#Override
public void run() {
synchronized (CommonUtil.mLock) {
System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName()+"---> job started");
int i =2;
while(i<50){
System.out.print(i + "\t");
i = i+2;
CommonUtil.mLock.notify();
try {
CommonUtil.mLock.wait();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
System.out.println("EvenThread---> job completed");
CommonUtil.mLock.notify();
}
}
}
class CommonUtil{
static final Object mLock= new Object();
}
Output:

Main thread exited
Well, I have spent last three hours reading a Java sychronization tutorial (a very good one) followed by more info about wait, notify and notifyAll, and i ended up with program that uses N threads to count from A to B, set N to 2 and you have odd and even.
pastebin
Also, my program has no comments whatsoever, so make sure you read the tutorial(s) before you try understand this code.
Also it never prints "Exit Main Thread".
That is because maybe because your threads are waiting on the lock for someone to notify() but due to missed signal or no one signalling them, they never get out of waiting state. For that the best solution is to use:
public final void wait(long timeout)
throws InterruptedException
Causes the current thread to wait until either another thread invokes
the notify() method or the notifyAll() method for this object, or a
specified amount of time has elapsed.
This overloaded method will wait for other thread to notify for specific amount of time and then return if timeout occurs. So in case of a missed signal the thread will still resume its work.
NOTE: After returning from wait state always check for
PRE-CONDITION again, as it can be a Spurious Wakeup.
Here is my flavor of program that I coded some time back for the same.
import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicInteger;
public class Main {
private static int range = 10;
private static volatile AtomicInteger present = new AtomicInteger(0);
private static Object lock = new Object();
public static void main(String[] args) {
new Thread(new OddRunnable()).start();
new Thread(new EvenRunnable()).start();
}
static class OddRunnable implements Runnable{
#Override
public void run() {
while(present.get() <= range){
if((present.get() % 2) != 0){
System.out.println(present.get());
present.incrementAndGet();
synchronized (lock) {
lock.notifyAll();
}
}else{
synchronized (lock) {
try {
lock.wait(1000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
break;
}
}
}
}
}
}
static class EvenRunnable implements Runnable{
#Override
public void run() {
while(present.get() <= range){
if((present.get() % 2) == 0){
System.out.println(present.get());
present.incrementAndGet();
synchronized (lock) {
lock.notifyAll();
}
}else{
synchronized (lock) {
try {
lock.wait(1000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
break;
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
See the solution, I have kept a lock that works for notifying the chance of even or odd thread. If even thread finds that the present number is not even it waits on the lock and
hopes that odd thread will notify it when it prints that odd number. And similarly it works for odd thread too.
I am not suggesting that this is the best solution but this is something that came out in the first try, some other options are also possible.
Also I would like to point out that this question though as a practice is good, but do keep in mind that you are not doing anything parallel there.
This could be an exercise on threads and lock monitors, but there is nothing to do in parallel that give you advantages.
In your code when a thread 1 (OddThread or EvenThread) ends his work and prints out "Odd Thread Finish" (or "Even Thread Finish") the other thread 2 is waiting a notify() or a notifyAll() that never will happen because the first is over.
You have to change EvenThread and OddThread adding a synchronized block with a notify call on commShare just after the while cycle. I removed the second if-branch because in this way you don't continue to check the while condition but get a wait on commShare soon.
class EvenThread implements Runnable {
private Share commShare;
private int number = 2;
public EvenThread(Share obj) {
this.commShare = obj;
}
public void run() {
System.out.println("Even Thread start");
while (number <= 50) {
synchronized (commShare) {
if (commShare.flag) {
System.out.println("Even Thread:" + number);
number += 2;
commShare.flag = false;
}
commShare.notify();
try {
commShare.wait();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
synchronized (commShare) {
commShare.notify();
System.out.println("Even Thread Finish");
}
}
}
class OddThread implements Runnable {
private int number = 1;
private Share commShare;
public OddThread(Share obj) {
this.commShare = obj;
}
public void run() {
System.out.println("Odd Thread start");
while (number <= 50) {
synchronized (commShare) {
if (!commShare.flag) {
System.out.println("Odd Thread: " + number);
number += 2;
commShare.flag = true;
}
commShare.notify();
try {
commShare.wait();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
synchronized (commShare) {
commShare.notify();
System.out.println("Odd Thread Finish");
}
}
Finally, in the main you have to join for each thread you started. It's sure that Thread.currentThread() returns just one of yours threads? We have started two threads and those threads we should join.
try {
even.join();
odd.join();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
I will not vote for using wait() and notify(). The things that you can do with wait and notify can be done through more sophisticated tools like semaphore, countDownLatch, CyclicBarrier. You can find this advice in the famous book Effective java in item number 69 prefer concurrency utilities to wait and notify.
Even in this case we don't need this things at all, we can achieve this functionality by a simple volatile boolean variable. And for stopping a thread the best possible way is to use interrupt. After certain amount of time or some predefined condition we can interrupt threads. Please find my implementation attached:
Thread 1 for printing even numbers:
public class MyRunnable1 implements Runnable
{
public static volatile boolean isRun = false;
private int k = 0 ;
#Override
public void run() {
while(!Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted()){
if(isRun){
System.out.println(k);
k+=2;
isRun=false;
MyRunnable2.isRun=true;
}
}
}
}
Thread 2 for printing even numbers:
public class MyRunnable2 implements Runnable{
public static volatile boolean isRun = false;
private int k = 1 ;
#Override
public void run() {
while(!Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted()){
if(isRun){
System.out.println(k);
k+=2;
isRun=false;
MyRunnable1.isRun=true;
}
}
}
}
Now main method which drives the above threads
public class MyMain{
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException{
Thread t1 = new Thread(new MyRunnable1());
Thread t2 = new Thread(new MyRunnable2());
MyRunnable1.isRun=true;
t1.start();
t2.start();
Thread.currentThread().sleep(1000);
t1.interrupt();
t2.interrupt();
}
}
There may be some places you need to change a bit this is just a skeletal implementation. Hope it helps and please let me know if you need something else.

This is very generic solution. It uses semaphores to do signaling among threads.
This is general solution where N threads prints M natural numbers in sequence turn by turn.
that is if we have 3 threads and we want to print 7 natural numbers, output would be:
Thread 1 : 1
Thread 2 : 2
Thread 3 : 3
Thread 1 : 4
Thread 2 : 5
Thread 3 : 6
Thread 1 : 7
import java.util.concurrent.Semaphore;
/*
* Logic is based on simple idea
* each thread should wait for previous thread and then notify next thread in circular fashion
* There is no locking required
* Semaphores will do the signaling work among threads.

This Class prints Even Number:
public class EvenThreadDetails extends Thread{
int countNumber;
public EvenThreadDetails(int countNumber) {
this.countNumber=countNumber;
}
#Override
public void run()
{
for (int i = 0; i < countNumber; i++) {
if(i%2==0)
{
System.out.println("Even Number :"+i);
}
try {
Thread.sleep(2);
} catch (InterruptedException ex) {
// code to resume or terminate...
}
}
}
}
This Class prints Odd Numbers:
public class OddThreadDetails extends Thread {
int countNumber;
public OddThreadDetails(int countNumber) {
this.countNumber=countNumber;
}
#Override
public void run()
{
for (int i = 0; i < countNumber; i++) {
if(i%2!=0)
{
System.out.println("Odd Number :"+i);
}
try {
Thread.sleep(2);
} catch (InterruptedException ex) {
// code to resume or terminate...
}
}
}
}
This is Main class:
public class EvenOddDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException
{
Thread eventhread= new EvenThreadDetails(100);
Thread oddhread=new OddThreadDetails(100);
eventhread.start();
oddhread.start();
}
}
I have done it this way and its working...
