java main线程 join_Java多线程中关于join的问题？

探究

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

Thread.currentThread().join();

System.out.println("main thread exit.");

}

为了了解问题本质，我们跟进去代码看看,线程的join方法如下:

public final void join() throws InterruptedException {

join(0);

}

再继续跟:

public final synchronized void join(long millis)

throws InterruptedException {

long base = System.currentTimeMillis();

long now = 0;

if (millis < 0) {

throw new IllegalArgumentException("timeout value is negative");

}

if (millis == 0) {

while (isAlive()) {

wait(0);

}

} else {

while (isAlive()) {

long delay = millis - now;

if (delay <= 0) {

break;

}

wait(delay);

now = System.currentTimeMillis() - base;

}

}

}

根据代码，其实join方法最终是待用了wait(0);这行代码,而wait方法是本地方法.

根据wait的方法定义,有以下几点逐一说明:

wait()方法在Object类定义,调用时会获取该对象上的监视器,因此必须在同步代码块上调用.从代码来看`public final synchronized void join(long millis)

throws InterruptedException`,因此调用wait方法后,实际上是获取了当前对象(根据调试查看到是main线程)的监视器.

根据wait方法的定义,它只在在如下几种情况才会被唤醒,否则将一直等待:

• Some other thread invokes the {@code notify} method for this

  object and thread T happens to be arbitrarily chosen as

  the thread to be awakened.

• Some other thread invokes the {@code notifyAll} method for this

  object.

• Some other thread {@linkplain Thread#interrupt() interrupts}

  thread T.

• The specified amount of real time has elapsed, more or less. If

  {@code timeout} is zero, however, then real time is not taken into

  consideration and the thread simply waits until notified.

总结

因此,回答你的问题就是,join方法实质是调用了wait方法.wait方法调用后阻塞(我不认为这是阻塞)在当前线程(main线程上),根据wait的定义,不调用notify,notifyAll,interrupt以及超时机制(本例调用的是wait(0),故不存在这种情况),那么线程将一直处于等待状态,故一直不会退出。
