class threada extends thread{ public threada(string name) { super(name); } public void run() { synchronized (this) { system.out.println(thread.currentthread().getname()+" call notify()"); notify(); } }}public class waittest { public static void main(string[] args) { threada t1 = new threada("t1"); synchronized(t1) { try { // 启动“线程t1” system.out.println(thread.currentthread().getname()+" start t1"); t1.start(); // 主线程等待t1通过notify()唤醒。 system.out.println(thread.currentthread().getname()+" wait()"); t1.wait(); system.out.println(thread.currentthread().getname()+" continue"); } catch (interruptedexception e) { e.printstacktrace(); } } }} |
输出结果：main start t1 -> main wait() -> t1 call notify() -> main continue
其实调用t1.start()，t1为就绪状态，只是main方法中，t1被main线程锁住了，t1.wait()的时候，让当前线程等待，其实是让main线程等待了，然后释放了t1锁，t1线程执行，打印t1 call notify()，然后唤醒main线程，最后结束；
这里说一下wait()与sleep()的区别，他们的共同点都是让线程休眠，但是wait()会释放对象同步锁，而sleep()不会；下面的代码t1结束之后才会运行t2；能够证实这一点；
