本文探讨了如何正确使用ThreadLocal，以及如果不当使用可能导致的内存泄漏问题，特别是在线程池环境中。ThreadLocal误用可能导致PermGen空间溢出错误。建议在web应用中谨慎使用ThreadLocal，并确保在适当的时候调用remove()方法。

When and how to use a ThreadLocal

http://www.javacodegeeks.com/2013/10/when-and-how-to-use-a-threadlocal.html

As our readers might already have guessed, I deal with memory leaks on a daily basis. A particular type of the OutOfMemoryError messages has recently started catching my attention – the issues triggered by misused ThreadLocals have become more and more frequent. Looking at the causes for such leakages, I am starting to believe that more than half of those are caused by developers who either have no clue what they are doing or who are trying to apply a solution to the problems which it is not meant to solve.

——误用ThreadLocal可能会导致OutOfMemoryError。

Instead of grinding my teeth, I decided to open up the topic by publishing two articles, first of which you are currently reading. In the post I explain the motivation behind ThreadLocal usage. In the second post currently in progress I will open up the ThreadLocal bonnet and look at the implementation.

【正例】为不同地区的用户显示不同的日期格式

Let us start with an imaginary scenario in which ThreadLocal usage is indeed reasonable. For this, say hello to our hypothetical developer, named Tim. Tim is developing a webapp, in which there is a lot of localized content. For example a user from California would expect to be greeted with date formatted using a familiar MM/dd/yy pattern, one from Estonia on the other hand would like to see a date formatted according to dd.MM.yyyy. So Tim starts writing code like this:

 
        public String formatCurrentDate() { 
    
         DateFormat df 
    = 
     new SimpleDateFormat( 
    "MM/dd/yy"); 
    
    return df.format( 
    new Date()); 
    
     } 
    
    public String formatFirstOfJanyary1970() { 
    
         DateFormat df 
    = 
     new SimpleDateFormat( 
    "MM/dd/yy"); 
    
    return df.format( 
    new Date( 
    0)); 
    
     }

改进：将DateFormat提取出来作为实例变量。

After a while, Tim finds this to be boring and against good practices – the application code is polluted with such initializations. So he makes a seemingly reasonable move by extracting the DateFormat to an instance variable. After making the move, his code now looks like the following:
