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

这要视情况而定。 如果只有一个或多个共享实体。

在这里查看完整的工作示例

简单介绍一下。

线程和可共享实体 多个线程可以访问同一个实体,例如多个connectionThreads共享一个messageQueue。由于线程并发运行,可能会有一个数据被另一个覆盖的机会,这可能是一个混乱的情况。 因此,我们需要某种方法来确保可共享实体一次只能被一个线程访问。(并发)。

同步块 Synchronized()块是一种确保可共享实体并发访问的方法。 首先,打个小比方 假设有两个人P1, P2(线程)一个盥洗室(可共享实体),有一扇门(锁)。 现在我们想让一个人一次使用脸盆。 一种方法是在P1锁门的时候P2等待P1完成他的工作 P1打开门 那么只有p1可以使用脸盆。

语法。

synchronized(this)
{
  SHARED_ENTITY.....
}

"this" provided the intrinsic lock associated with the class (Java developer designed Object class in such a way that each object can work as monitor). Above approach works fine when there are only one shared entity and multiple threads (1: N). N shareable entities-M threads Now think of a situation when there is two washbasin inside a washroom and only one door. If we are using the previous approach, only p1 can use one washbasin at a time while p2 will wait outside. It is wastage of resource as no one is using B2 (washbasin). A wiser approach would be to create a smaller room inside washroom and provide them one door per washbasin. In this way, P1 can access B1 and P2 can access B2 and vice-versa.

washbasin1;  
washbasin2;

Object lock1=new Object();
Object lock2=new Object();

  synchronized(lock1)
  {
    washbasin1;
  }

  synchronized(lock2)
  {
    washbasin2;
  }

不进行同步的原因是,有时您需要多个锁(经过一些额外的思考后,第二个锁通常会被删除,但您仍然需要它处于中间状态)。如果你锁定了这个,你总是要记住两个锁中哪个是这个;如果你锁定一个私有对象,变量名会告诉你。

从读者的角度来看,如果你看到了锁定,你总是必须回答两个问题:

这能保护什么样的权限? 一把锁真的够了吗,难道不是有人引入了漏洞吗?

一个例子:

class BadObject {
    private Something mStuff;
    synchronized setStuff(Something stuff) {
        mStuff = stuff;
    }
    synchronized getStuff(Something stuff) {
        return mStuff;
    }
    private MyListener myListener = new MyListener() {
        public void onMyEvent(...) {
            setStuff(...);
        }
    }
    synchronized void longOperation(MyListener l) {
        ...
        l.onMyEvent(...);
        ...
    }
}

如果两个线程在BadObject的两个不同实例上开始longOperation(),它们将获得 他们的锁;当调用l.onMyEvent(…)时,会出现死锁,因为两个线程都不能获得其他对象的锁。

在本例中,我们可以通过使用两个锁来消除死锁,一个用于短操作,一个用于长操作。

简单的回答:您必须了解其中的区别,并根据代码做出选择。

Long answer: In general I would rather try to avoid synchronize(this) to reduce contention but private locks add complexity you have to be aware of. So use the right synchronization for the right job. If you are not so experienced with multi-threaded programming I would rather stick to instance locking and read up on this topic. (That said: just using synchronize(this) does not automatically make your class fully thread-safe.) This is a not an easy topic but once you get used to it, the answer whether to use synchronize(this) or not comes naturally.

concurrent包极大地降低了线程安全代码的复杂性。我只有一些轶事证据,但我所见过的大多数synchronized(x)工作似乎都是重新实现Lock、Semaphore或Latch,但使用的是较低级别的监视器。

考虑到这一点,使用这些机制中的任何一种进行同步都类似于对内部对象进行同步,而不是泄露锁。这是非常有益的,因为您可以绝对确定通过两个或多个线程控制进入监视器的条目。

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。

I think there is a good explanation on why each of these are vital techniques under your belt in a book called Java Concurrency In Practice by Brian Goetz. He makes one point very clear - you must use the same lock "EVERYWHERE" to protect the state of your object. Synchronised method and synchronising on an object often go hand in hand. E.g. Vector synchronises all its methods. If you have a handle to a vector object and are going to do "put if absent" then merely Vector synchronising its own individual methods isn't going to protect you from corruption of state. You need to synchronise using synchronised (vectorHandle). This will result in the SAME lock being acquired by every thread which has a handle to the vector and will protect overall state of the vector. This is called client side locking. We do know as a matter of fact vector does synchronised (this) / synchronises all its methods and hence synchronising on the object vectorHandle will result in proper synchronisation of vector objects state. Its foolish to believe that you are thread safe just because you are using a thread safe collection. This is precisely the reason ConcurrentHashMap explicitly introduced putIfAbsent method - to make such operations atomic.

总之

Synchronising at method level allows client side locking. If you have a private lock object - it makes client side locking impossible. This is fine if you know that your class doesn't have "put if absent" type of functionality. If you are designing a library - then synchronising on this or synchronising the method is often wiser. Because you are rarely in a position to decide how your class is going to be used. Had Vector used a private lock object - it would have been impossible to get "put if absent" right. The client code will never gain a handle to the private lock thus breaking the fundamental rule of using the EXACT SAME LOCK to protect its state. Synchronising on this or synchronised methods do have a problem as others have pointed out - someone could get a lock and never release it. All other threads would keep waiting for the lock to be released. So know what you are doing and adopt the one that's correct. Someone argued that having a private lock object gives you better granularity - e.g. if two operations are unrelated - they could be guarded by different locks resulting in better throughput. But this i think is design smell and not code smell - if two operations are completely unrelated why are they part of the SAME class? Why should a class club unrelated functionalities at all? May be a utility class? Hmmmm - some util providing string manipulation and calendar date formatting through the same instance?? ... doesn't make any sense to me at least!!
