每当在SO上出现关于Java同步的问题时,有些人都急于指出应该避免同步(这一点)。相反,他们声称,对私有引用的锁定是首选的。
其中一些原因是:
一些邪恶的代码可能会偷你的锁(这个很流行,也有一个“意外”变体)
同一类中的所有同步方法都使用完全相同的锁,这降低了吞吐量
你(不必要地)暴露了太多信息
包括我在内的其他人认为,synchronized(this)是一个被大量使用的习语(在Java库中也是如此),是安全的,而且很容易理解。它不应该被避免,因为你有一个错误,你不知道你的多线程程序中发生了什么。换句话说:如果它是适用的,那么就使用它。
我感兴趣的是看到一些现实世界的例子(没有foobar的东西),避免锁定在这是可取的,当同步(这)也会做的工作。
因此:您应该总是避免synchronized(this),并将其替换为私有引用上的锁吗?
一些进一步的信息(随着答案的更新):
we are talking about instance synchronization
both implicit (synchronized methods) and explicit form of synchronized(this) are considered
if you quote Bloch or other authorities on the subject, don't leave out the parts you don't like (e.g. Effective Java, item on Thread Safety: Typically it is the lock on the instance itself, but there are exceptions.)
if you need granularity in your locking other than synchronized(this) provides, then synchronized(this) is not applicable so that's not the issue
如果你已经决定:
你要做的就是锁定目标
当前对象;而且
你想要
锁定粒度小于
整体方法;
那么我就不认为synchronizezd是一个禁忌。
Some people deliberately use synchronized(this) (instead of marking the method synchronized) inside the whole contents of a method because they think it's "clearer to the reader" which object is actually being synchronized on. So long as people are making an informed choice (e.g. understand that by doing so they're actually inserting extra bytecodes into the method and this could have a knock-on effect on potential optimisations), I don't particularly see a problem with this. You should always document the concurrent behaviour of your program, so I don't see the "'synchronized' publishes the behaviour" argument as being so compelling.
至于应该使用哪个对象的锁的问题,我认为在当前对象上同步并没有什么错,如果这是你所做的逻辑所期望的,以及你的类通常是如何被使用的。例如,对于集合,逻辑上期望锁定的对象通常是集合本身。
不,你不应该总是这样。但是,当一个特定对象上有多个关注点时,我倾向于避免它,而这些关注点只需要对它们本身是线程安全的。例如,你可能有一个可变数据对象,它有“label”和“parent”字段;它们需要是线程安全的,但是改变其中一个不需要阻止另一个被写入/读取。(在实践中,我将通过声明字段为volatile和/或使用java.util来避免这种情况。concurrent的AtomicFoo包装器)。
一般来说,同步有点笨拙,因为它只是一个大的锁定,而不是仔细考虑如何允许线程相互工作。使用synchronized(this)更加笨拙和反社会,因为它表示“当我持有锁时,没有人可以更改这个类的任何内容”。你需要多久做一次?
I would much rather have more granular locks; even if you do want to stop everything from changing (perhaps you're serialising the object), you can just acquire all of the locks to achieve the same thing, plus it's more explicit that way. When you use synchronized(this), it's not clear exactly why you're synchronizing, or what the side effects might be. If you use synchronized(labelMonitor), or even better labelLock.getWriteLock().lock(), it's clear what you are doing and what the effects of your critical section are limited to.
