异步调用和非阻塞调用之间的区别是什么?在阻塞和同步调用之间(请提供示例)?


当前回答

把这个问题放在java 7中的NIO和NIO.2上下文中,异步IO比非阻塞先进了一步。 使用java NIO非阻塞调用,可以通过调用abstractselectablecchannel . configureblocking (false)来设置所有通道(SocketChannel、ServerSocketChannel、FileChannel等)。 然而,在这些IO调用返回之后,您可能仍然需要控制检查,例如是否以及何时再次读/写等等。 例如,

while (!isDataEnough()) {
    socketchannel.read(inputBuffer);
    // do something else and then read again
}

使用java 7中的异步api,可以以更通用的方式创建这些控件。 两种方法之一是使用CompletionHandler。注意,两个读调用都是非阻塞的。

asyncsocket.read(inputBuffer, 60, TimeUnit.SECONDS /* 60 secs for timeout */, 
    new CompletionHandler<Integer, Object>() {
        public void completed(Integer result, Object attachment) {...}  
        public void failed(Throwable e, Object attachment) {...}
    }
}

其他回答

正如你可能从众多不同的(通常是相互排斥的)答案中看到的,这取决于你问谁。在某些领域,这两个术语是同义词。或者它们可能分别指两个相似的概念:

One interpretation is that the call will do something in the background essentially unsupervised in order to allow the program to not be held up by a lengthy process that it does not need to control. Playing audio might be an example - a program could call a function to play (say) an mp3, and from that point on could continue on to other things while leaving it to the OS to manage the process of rendering the audio on the sound hardware. The alternative interpretation is that the call will do something that the program will need to monitor, but will allow most of the process to occur in the background only notifying the program at critical points in the process. For example, asynchronous file IO might be an example - the program supplies a buffer to the operating system to write to file, and the OS only notifies the program when the operation is complete or an error occurs.

在任何一种情况下,目的是允许程序不被阻塞,等待一个缓慢的进程完成-程序如何响应是唯一真正的区别。不同的程序员、不同的语言、不同的平台都不一样。或者这些术语可能指的是完全不同的概念(例如在线程编程中使用同步/异步)。

抱歉,但我不相信有一个唯一的正确答案是全面正确的。

synchronous asynchonous
block Block I/O must be a synchronus I/O, becuase it has to be executed in order. Synchronous I/O might not be block I/O Not exist
non-block Non-block and Synchronous I/O at the same time is polling/multi-plexing.. Non-block and Asynchronous I/O at the same time is parallel execution, such as signal trigger…

block/non-block描述了初始化实体本身的行为,它意味着实体在等待I/O完成期间所做的事情 同步/异步描述了I/O初始化实体和I/O执行器(例如操作系统)之间的行为,它意味着这两个实体是否可以并行执行

它们只在拼写上有所不同。它们所指的内容没有区别。从技术上讲,你可以说它们的重点不同。非阻塞指的是控制流(它不阻塞)。异步是指当事件\数据被处理时(不是同步的)。

简单地说,

function sum(a,b){
return a+b;
}

为非阻塞。而异步则用于执行阻塞任务,然后返回阻塞任务的响应

阻塞:在原语(同步或异步)处理完成后,控制返回到调用进程

非阻塞:调用后控制权立即返回进程
