线程 同步 ConditionVariable-------特别使用在mediaplayer和camera多次调用中.

转自: http://blog.csdn.net/shaojie519/article/details/6684326

ConditionVariable类位于android.os.ConditionVariable，它可以帮助Android线程同步。在SDK上的介绍ConditionVariable不同于标准Java位于java.lang.Object wait() 和 notify() ，这个类可以等待自己，这就意味着 open(), close() 和 block() 可能会假死 ，如果使用ConditionVariable类的open()在调用 block() 之前， block() 将不会阻塞，相反将会返回立即。

该类一共有4个方法

boolean  block(long timeout)
阻止当前线程知道条件是open，或直到超时，这里参数long timeout为超时设置，Android123提示大家如果你们从事过Win32开发，这个方法类似DWORD WaitForSingleObject(HANDLE hHandle,DWORD dwMilliseconds); 函数。

void  block()
阻止当前线程知道条件 open ，是上面的无超时等待重载版本。

void  close()
重置条件为 close状态。

void  open()
Open条件，释放所有线程的阻塞.

ConditionVariable在创建时还有一种构造方法是 public ConditionVariable (boolean state) ，如果为true，默认时为opened，如果为false则是closed. ，默认public ConditionVariable()为close()

给出api中一个demo：

在Android开发中，如果需要线程同步，可以使用Java系统库的wait()和notify()...但是这些代码的编写比较麻烦。Android提供了一个ConditionVariable类方便线程同步操作。

  ConditionVariable有三个方法，分别是block()、open()、close()。

  void block()
  阻塞当前线程，直到条件为open
  void block(long timeout)
  阻塞当前线程，直到条件为open或超时
  void open()
  释放所有阻塞的线程
  void close()
  将条件重置为close

  ConditionVariable 在创建时还有一种构造方法是 public ConditionVariable (boolean state) ，如果为true，默认时为opened，如果为false则是closed. ，默认public ConditionVariable()为closed.

  自己简单写了一个Demo，效果有点牵强...Demo的效果是，TextView每过3秒，就会输出一个字符s。如果点击按钮可以马上输出。
