Thread.join()的用法

thread.join()是让当前线程block住，等thread执行完之后，再继续执行 。比如有3个线程在执行计算任务，必须等三个线程都执行完才能汇总，那么这时候在主线程里面让三个线程join，最后计算结果既可，代码显示如下：

package chapter01;

import java.util.Random;
//thread.join()用于停止当前线程而运行别的线程
public class Thread_Join_Test {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		System.out.println("in " + Thread.currentThread().getName());
		long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
		CounterThread[] ct = new CounterThread[3];
		for (int i = 0; i < ct.length; i++) {
			ct[i] = new CounterThread();
			ct[i].start();
			try {
				ct[i].join();//让当前线程block住，等thread执行完之后，再继续执行 。
			} catch (Exception e) {
				e.printStackTrace();
			}
		}
		long end = System.currentTimeMillis();
		System.out.println("join total time = " + (end - start)+"ms!");
		int result = 0;
		for (int j = 0; j < ct.length; j++) {
			result += ct[j].getResult();
		}
		System.out.println("the result is " + result);

	}

}

class CounterThread extends Thread {

	public CounterThread() {
	}

	private int result;

	public int getResult() {
		return result;
	}

	public void run() {
		try {
			int time = (new Random().nextInt() >>> 1) % 5000;//取int范围内的一个随机数，然后无符号右移1次(除以2)。m>>> n=m/2ⁿ
			Thread.sleep(time);
			System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + " is blocked for " + time + "ms");
		} catch (InterruptedException ex) {

		}
		result = 5;
	}
}

测试结果：

in main
Thread-0 is blocked for 2955ms
Thread-1 is blocked for 2761ms
Thread-2 is blocked for 2568ms
join total time = 8287ms!
the result is 15
