CountDownLatch is a versatile(通用的) synchronization tool and can be used for a number of purposes.
计数器为1,使多个等待线程同时开始运行;计数器为n,使线程等待n个线程全部结束后再运行

示例:
- The first is a start signal that prevents any worker from proceeding * until the driver is ready for them to proceed;
- The second is a completion signal that allows the driver to wait until all workers have completed. * * *
{@code * class Driver { // ... * void main() throws InterruptedException { * CountDownLatch startSignal = new CountDownLatch(1); * CountDownLatch doneSignal = new CountDownLatch(N); * * for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) // create and start threads * new Thread(new Worker(startSignal, doneSignal)).start(); * * doSomethingElse(); // don't let run yet * startSignal.countDown(); // let all threads proceed * doSomethingElse(); * doneSignal.await(); // wait for all to finish * } * } * * class Worker implements Runnable { * private final CountDownLatch startSignal; * private final CountDownLatch doneSignal; * Worker(CountDownLatch startSignal, CountDownLatch doneSignal) { * this.startSignal = startSignal; * this.doneSignal = doneSignal; * } * public void run() { * try { * startSignal.await(); * doWork(); * doneSignal.countDown(); * } catch (InterruptedException ex) {} // return; * } * * void doWork() { ... } * }}
* *Another typical usage would be to divide a problem into N parts, * describe each part with a Runnable that executes that portion and * counts down on the latch, and queue all the Runnables to an * Executor. When all sub-parts are complete, the coordinating thread * will be able to pass through await. (When threads must repeatedly * count down in this way, instead use a {@link CyclicBarrier}.) * *
{@code * class Driver2 { // ... * void main() throws InterruptedException { * CountDownLatch doneSignal = new CountDownLatch(N); * Executor e = ... * * for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) // create and start threads * e.execute(new WorkerRunnable(doneSignal, i)); * * doneSignal.await(); // wait for all to finish * } * } * * class WorkerRunnable implements Runnable { * private final CountDownLatch doneSignal; * private final int i; * WorkerRunnable(CountDownLatch doneSignal, int i) { * this.doneSignal = doneSignal; * this.i = i; * } * public void run() { * try { * doWork(i); * doneSignal.countDown(); * } catch (InterruptedException ex) {} // return; * } * * void doWork() { ... } * }}
