Semaphore:Java并发编程

Semaphore又称信号量，是操作系统中的一个概念，在Java并发编程中，信号量控制的是线程并发的数量。

public Semaphore(int permits)
   
   
1

其中参数permits就是允许同时运行的线程数目;

下面先看一个信号量实现单线程的例子，也就是permits=1:

package concurrent.semaphore;

import java.util.concurrent.Semaphore;

public class Driver {
    // 控制线程的数目为1，也就是单线程
    private Semaphore semaphore = new Semaphore(1);

    public void driveCar() {
        try {
            // 从信号量中获取一个允许机会
            semaphore.acquire();
            System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + " start at " + System.currentTimeMillis());
            Thread.sleep(1000);
            System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + " stop at " + System.currentTimeMillis());
            // 释放允许，将占有的信号量归还
            semaphore.release();
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

package concurrent.semaphore;

public class Car extends Thread{
    private Driver driver;

    public Car(Driver driver) {
        super();
        this.driver = driver;
    }

    public void run() {
        driver.driveCar();
    }
}

public class Run {

        Driver driver = new Driver();
        for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
            (new Car(driver)).start();
        }
    }
}

运行结果：

Thread-0 stop at 1482664518179
Thread-3 start at 1482664518179

从输出可以看出，改输出与单线程是一样的，执行完一个线程，再执行另一个线程。

如果信号量大于1呢，我们将信号量设为3：

public class Driver {
    // 将信号量设为3
    private Semaphore semaphore = new Semaphore(3);

    public void driveCar() {
        try {
            semaphore.acquire();
            System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + " start at " + System.currentTimeMillis());
            Thread.sleep(1000);
            System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + " stop at " + System.currentTimeMillis());
            semaphore.release();
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

从输出的前三行可以看出，有3个线程可以同时执行，三个线程同时运行的时候，第四个线程必须等待前面有一个要完成，才能执行第四个线程启动。

当然也可以用acquire动态地添加permits的数量，它表示的是一次性获取许可的数量，比如：

public class Driver {
    // 信号量共10个
    private Semaphore semaphore = new Semaphore(10);

    public void driveCar() {
        try {
            // 每次获取3个
            semaphore.acquire(3);
            System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + " start at " + System.currentTimeMillis());
            Thread.sleep(1000);
            System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + " stop at " + System.currentTimeMillis());
            semaphore.release();
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

在上述代码中总的信号量除以每次获取的许可数即10/3=3，就是说可以允许3个线程一起运行。

我们可以用public int availablePermits()查看现在可用的信号量：

public class SemaphoreAvaliablePermits {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try{
            Semaphore semaphore = new Semaphore(10);
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
            semaphore.acquire();
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
            semaphore.acquire(2);
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
            semaphore.acquire(3);
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
            semaphore.acquire(4);
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
            semaphore.release();
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
            semaphore.release(2);
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
            semaphore.release(3);
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
            semaphore.release(4);
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
        }catch (InterruptedException e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

还有一个方法public int drainPermits()，这个方法返回即可所有的许可数目，并将许可置0：

public class SemaphoreDrainPermits {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try{
            Semaphore semaphore = new Semaphore(10);
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
            semaphore.acquire();
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
            System.out.println("Semaphore drain permits" + semaphore.drainPermits());
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
            System.out.println("Semaphore drain permits" + semaphore.drainPermits());
            System.out.println("Semaphore available permits: " + semaphore.availablePermits());
        }catch (InterruptedException e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
