java线程类的源码分析阅读技巧;
首先阅读thread类重点关注一下几个问题;
1、start() ,启动一个线程是如何实现的?
2、java线程状态机的变化过程以及如何实现的?
1、start方法的源码如下:
new Thread(Runnable);代码内部实际代码如下:
/** * Initializes a Thread. * * @param g the Thread group * @param target the object whose run() method gets called * @param name the name of the new Thread * @param stackSize the desired stack size for the new thread, or * zero to indicate that this parameter is to be ignored. * @param acc the AccessControlContext to inherit, or * AccessController.getContext() if null * @param inheritThreadLocals if {@code true}, inherit initial values for * inheritable thread-locals from the constructing thread */ private void init(ThreadGroup g, Runnable target, String name, long stackSize, AccessControlContext acc, boolean inheritThreadLocals) { if (name == null) { throw new NullPointerException("name cannot be null"); } this.name = name; Thread parent = currentThread(); SecurityManager security = System.getSecurityManager(); if (g == null) { /* Determine if it‘s an applet or not */ /* If there is a security manager, ask the security manager what to do. */ if (security != null) { g = security.getThreadGroup(); } /* If the security doesn‘t have a strong opinion of the matter use the parent thread group. */ if (g == null) { g = parent.getThreadGroup(); } } /* checkAccess regardless of whether or not threadgroup is explicitly passed in. */ g.checkAccess(); /* * Do we have the required permissions? */ if (security != null) { if (isCCLOverridden(getClass())) { security.checkPermission(SUBCLASS_IMPLEMENTATION_PERMISSION); } } g.addUnstarted(); this.group = g; this.daemon = parent.isDaemon(); this.priority = parent.getPriority(); if (security == null || isCCLOverridden(parent.getClass())) this.contextClassLoader = parent.getContextClassLoader(); else this.contextClassLoader = parent.contextClassLoader; this.inheritedAccessControlContext = acc != null ? acc : AccessController.getContext(); this.target = target; setPriority(priority); if (inheritThreadLocals && parent.inheritableThreadLocals != null) this.inheritableThreadLocals = ThreadLocal.createInheritedMap(parent.inheritableThreadLocals); /* Stash the specified stack size in case the VM cares */ this.stackSize = stackSize; /* Set thread ID */ tid = nextThreadID(); }

然后看start方法代码如下:
/** * Causes this thread to begin execution; the Java Virtual Machine * calls the <code>run</code> method of this thread. * <p> * The result is that two threads are running concurrently: the * current thread (which returns from the call to the * <code>start</code> method) and the other thread (which executes its * <code>run</code> method). * <p> * It is never legal to start a thread more than once. * In particular, a thread may not be restarted once it has completed * execution. * * @exception IllegalThreadStateException if the thread was already * started. * @see #run() * @see #stop() */ public synchronized void start() { /** * This method is not invoked for the main method thread or "system" * group threads created/set up by the VM. Any new functionality added * to this method in the future may have to also be added to the VM. * * A zero status value corresponds to state "NEW". */ if (threadStatus != 0) throw new IllegalThreadStateException(); /* Notify the group that this thread is about to be started * so that it can be added to the group‘s list of threads * and the group‘s unstarted count can be decremented. */ group.add(this); boolean started = false; try { start0(); started = true; } finally { try { if (!started) { group.threadStartFailed(this); } } catch (Throwable ignore) { /* do nothing. If start0 threw a Throwable then it will be passed up the call stack */ } } } private native void start0();
由此可见start方法的本质是调用本地方法start0()即进行的系统调用;
2、java线程的状态机的变化情况:重点关注 Thread中的一个静态枚举内部类,State 和Thread中的一个变量 threadStatus 的变化
threadStatus代码如下:
/* Java thread status for tools, * initialized to indicate thread ‘not yet started‘ */ private volatile int threadStatus = 0;
但是奇怪的是发现在Thread类中并没有对threadStatus进行过赋值。又见网友分析,java的状态变化存在c++中。例如native start0()方法等。
