有人能告诉我Java中的守护线程是什么吗?


当前回答

守护线程就像一个普通的线程,除了JVM只会在其他非守护线程不存在时关闭。守护进程线程通常用于为应用程序执行服务。

其他回答

再讲一点(参考:Java并发实践)

当创建一个新线程时,它将继承其守护进程状态 的父母。 当所有非守护进程线程完成时,JVM停止,并放弃所有剩余的守护进程线程: 最后,块不执行, 栈不会被解开——JVM只是退出。 由于这个原因,应该谨慎使用守护线程,将它们用于可能执行任何类型的I/O的任务是危险的。

Java守护线程

(守护进程)

Java使用用户线程和守护进程线程概念。

JVM流

1. If there are no `user treads` JVM starts terminating the program
2. JVM terminates all `daemon threads` automatically without waiting when they are done
3. JVM is shutdown

正如你所看到的,守护线程是用户线程的服务线程。

守护线程是低优先级线程。 线程从父线程继承它的属性。要从外部设置它,你可以在启动它之前使用setDaemon()方法或通过isDaemon()检查它

守护线程就像一个普通的线程,除了JVM只会在其他非守护线程不存在时关闭。守护进程线程通常用于为应用程序执行服务。

答案已经有很多了;然而,也许我可以更清楚地解释这一点,因为当我阅读Daemon Threads时,最初,我有一种感觉,我很好地理解了它;然而,在玩了它并调试了一下之后,我发现了一个奇怪的行为。

我被教导:

如果我想让线程在主线程有序完成执行后立即死亡,我应该将其设置为Diamond。

我尝试了什么:

我从主线程中创建了两个线程,我只将其中一个设置为菱形; 在主线程有序完成执行后,那些新创建的线程都没有退出,但我预计,守护线程应该已经退出; 我浏览了许多博客和文章,到目前为止,我找到的最好、最清晰的定义来自《Java并发实践》一书,它非常清楚地指出:

7.4.2守护线程

Sometimes you want to create a thread that performs some helper function but you don’t want the existence of this thread to prevent the JVM from shutting down. This is what daemon threads are for. Threads are divided into two types: normal threads and daemon threads. When the JVM starts up, all the threads it creates (such as garbage collector and other housekeeping threads) are daemon threads, except the main thread. When a new thread is created, it inherits the daemon status of the thread that created it, so by default any threads created by the main thread are also normal threads. Normal threads and daemon threads differ only in what happens when they exit. When a thread exits, the JVM performs an inventory of running threads, and if the only threads that are left are daemon threads, it initiates an orderly shutdown. When the JVM halts, any remaining daemon threads are abandoned— finally blocks are not executed, stacks are not unwound—the JVM just exits. Daemon threads should be used sparingly—few processing activities can be safely abandoned at any time with no cleanup. In particular, it is dangerous to use daemon threads for tasks that might perform any sort of I/O. Daemon threads are best saved for “housekeeping” tasks, such as a background thread that periodically removes expired entries from an in-memory cache.

当最后一个非守护进程线程执行完成时,JVM将完成这项工作。默认情况下,JVM将创建一个线程作为非守护进程,但我们可以通过setDaemon(true)方法将线程创建为守护进程。Daemon线程的一个很好的例子是GC线程,它将在所有非Daemon线程完成后立即完成它的工作。
