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


当前回答

这取决于你想做的任务,但我不会用它。此外,检查您想要完成的线程保存是否不能首先通过同步(此)来完成?API中也有一些不错的锁,可能会帮助到你:)

其他回答

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.

我认为第一点(其他人使用您的锁)和第二点(所有方法不必要地使用相同的锁)可能发生在任何相当大的应用程序中。特别是当开发人员之间没有良好的沟通时。

这不是一成不变的,这主要是一个良好的实践和防止错误的问题。

一个使用synchronized(this)的好例子。

// add listener
public final synchronized void addListener(IListener l) {listeners.add(l);}
// remove listener
public final synchronized void removeListener(IListener l) {listeners.remove(l);}
// routine that raise events
public void run() {
   // some code here...
   Set ls;
   synchronized(this) {
      ls = listeners.clone();
   }
   for (IListener l : ls) { l.processEvent(event); }
   // some code here...
}

正如你在这里看到的,我们在这个上使用同步来方便地与那里的一些同步方法进行长周期(可能是无限循环的run方法)合作。

当然,在私有字段上使用synchronized可以很容易地重写。但有时,当我们已经有了一些同步方法的设计时(例如,我们从遗留类派生出来的,synchronized(this)可能是唯一的解决方案)。

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!!

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;
  }
