can any one explain the statement ...\"static synchronized method and non static synchronized method will not block each other -they can run at the same time\"
non static synchronized methods put monitor lock on 'this'- It means only current object is locked.so all threads associated with current object will be blocked to access non static sync methods of that class if any one thread is accessing non static synchronized method. while other object's threads can still access the methods.
And static synchronized methods put monitor lock on Class object- It means if a thread of any object is accessing the method than all threads irrespective of any objects will be blocked to access all static synchronized methods of the class.
public class TestSync {
public synchronized void n1(int threadId)
{
snooze(threadId);
System.out.println("Sync non static n1 " + threadId);
}
public void n2(int threadId)
{
snooze(threadId);
System.out.println(" non static n2 " + threadId);
}
public static synchronized void s1(int threadId)
{
snooze(threadId);
System.out.println("Sync static s1 "+ threadId);
}
public static void s2(int threadId)
{
snooze(threadId);
System.out.println(" static s2 "+ threadId);
}
static void snooze(int threadId)
{
System.out.println("Waiting ... "+ threadId);
try {
Thread.sleep(10000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
TestSync ob = new TestSync();
TestSync ob2=new TestSync();
TestSync ob3=new TestSync();
TestSync ob4=new TestSync();
Runnable r1=()-> {
/*ob.n1(10);
ob.n2(10);*/
ob.s1(10);
//ob.s2(10);
};
Runnable r3=()-> {
/*ob2.n1(30);
ob2.n2(30);*/
ob2.s1(30);
//ob2.s2(30);
};
Runnable r4=()-> {
/*ob3.n1(40);
ob3.n2(40);*/
ob3.s1(30);
//ob3.s2(30);
};
Thread t1=new Thread(r1);
Thread t2= new Thread(r2);
Thread t3= new Thread(r3);
Thread t4= new Thread(r4);
Thread t5= new Thread(r5);
t1.start();
t3.start();
t4.start();
}
} Run once for static synchronized and than uncomment the non-static synchronized calls(and comment static synchronized) in runnable and run. You will understand better.
