Synchronized方法用于锁定所有对象 同步块用于锁定特定对象

同步的方法

同步方法有两个效果。 首先，当一个线程正在为一个对象执行同步方法时，所有为同一对象调用同步方法的其他线程将阻塞(暂停执行)，直到第一个线程处理完该对象。

其次，当同步方法退出时，它自动与同一对象的同步方法的任何后续调用建立happens-before关系。这保证了对对象状态的更改对于所有线程都是可见的。

注意，构造函数不能同步——在构造函数中使用synchronized关键字是一个语法错误。同步构造函数没有意义，因为只有创建对象的线程才能在构造对象时访问它。

同步语句

与同步方法不同，同步语句必须指定提供内在锁的对象:大多数情况下，我使用它来同步对列表或映射的访问，但我不想阻塞对对象的所有方法的访问。

Q:内在锁和同步 同步是围绕一个称为内在锁或监视器锁的内部实体构建的。(API规范通常将此实体简单地称为“监视器”)内在锁在同步的两个方面都发挥作用:强制独占访问对象的状态，并建立对可见性至关重要的happens-before关系。

Every object has an intrinsic lock associated with it. By convention, a thread that needs exclusive and consistent access to an object's fields has to acquire the object's intrinsic lock before accessing them, and then release the intrinsic lock when it's done with them. A thread is said to own the intrinsic lock between the time it has acquired the lock and released the lock. As long as a thread owns an intrinsic lock, no other thread can acquire the same lock. The other thread will block when it attempts to acquire the lock.

package test;

public class SynchTest implements Runnable {  
    private int c = 0;

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new SynchTest().test();
    }

    public void test() {
        // Create the object with the run() method
        Runnable runnable = new SynchTest();
        Runnable runnable2 = new SynchTest();
        // Create the thread supplying it with the runnable object
        Thread thread = new Thread(runnable,"thread-1");
        Thread thread2 = new Thread(runnable,"thread-2");
//      Here the key point is passing same object, if you pass runnable2 for thread2,
//      then its not applicable for synchronization test and that wont give expected
//      output Synchronization method means "it is not possible for two invocations
//      of synchronized methods on the same object to interleave"

        // Start the thread
        thread.start();
        thread2.start();
    }

    public synchronized  void increment() {
        System.out.println("Begin thread " + Thread.currentThread().getName());
        System.out.println(this.hashCode() + "Value of C = " + c);
//      If we uncomment this for synchronized block, then the result would be different
//      synchronized(this) {
            for (int i = 0; i < 9999999; i++) {
                c += i;
            }
//      }
        System.out.println("End thread " + Thread.currentThread().getName());
    }

//    public synchronized void decrement() {
//        System.out.println("Decrement " + Thread.currentThread().getName());
//    }

    public int value() {
        return c;
    }

    @Override
    public void run() {
        this.increment();
    }
}

用同步方法，块和不同步交叉检查不同的输出。

使用同步块，您可以有多个同步器，因此多个同时但不冲突的事情可以同时进行。

谁能告诉我同步方法比同步块的优势与一个例子?谢谢。

与块相比，使用同步方法并没有明显的优势。

也许唯一的一点(但我不认为这是优点)是您不需要包含对象引用this。

方法:

public synchronized void method() { // blocks "this" from here.... 
    ...
    ...
    ...
} // to here

布洛克:

public void method() { 
    synchronized( this ) { // blocks "this" from here .... 
        ....
        ....
        ....
    }  // to here...
}

看到了吗?一点好处都没有。

块确实比方法有优势，主要是灵活性，因为你可以使用另一个对象作为锁，而同步方法将锁定整个对象。

比较:

// locks the whole object
... 
private synchronized void someInputRelatedWork() {
    ... 
}
private synchronized void someOutputRelatedWork() {
    ... 
}

vs.

// Using specific locks
Object inputLock = new Object();
Object outputLock = new Object();

private void someInputRelatedWork() {
    synchronized(inputLock) { 
        ... 
    } 
}
private void someOutputRelatedWork() {
    synchronized(outputLock) { 
        ... 
    }
}

另外，如果方法增长了，你仍然可以保持同步段的分离:

 private void method() {
     ... code here
     ... code here
     ... code here
    synchronized( lock ) { 
        ... very few lines of code here
    }
     ... code here
     ... code here
     ... code here
     ... code here
}

唯一真正的区别是同步块可以选择在哪个对象上同步。同步方法只能使用'this'(或同步类方法的相应Class实例)。例如，它们在语义上是等价的:

synchronized void foo() {
  ...
}

void foo() {
    synchronized (this) {
      ...
    }
}

后者更灵活，因为它可以竞争任何对象(通常是成员变量)的关联锁。它也更细粒度，因为您可以在块之前和块之后执行并发代码，但仍然在方法中。当然，您也可以通过将并发代码重构为单独的非同步方法来轻松地使用同步方法。使用任何使代码更容易理解的方法。

来自Java规范摘要: http://www.cs.cornell.edu/andru/javaspec/17.doc.html

The synchronized statement (§14.17) computes a reference to an object; it then attempts to perform a lock action on that object and does not proceed further until the lock action has successfully completed. ... A synchronized method (§8.4.3.5) automatically performs a lock action when it is invoked; its body is not executed until the lock action has successfully completed. If the method is an instance method, it locks the lock associated with the instance for which it was invoked (that is, the object that will be known as this during execution of the body of the method). If the method is static, it locks the lock associated with the Class object that represents the class in which the method is defined. ...

基于这些描述，我想说以前的大多数答案都是正确的，同步方法可能对静态方法特别有用，否则您必须弄清楚如何获得“表示定义方法的类的Class对象”。
