Thread.sleep 显然不强制上下文切换

Thread.sleep doesn't force context switch apparently

主线程创建 child 线程。 Parent 需要 child 的一些工作,但不是全部,因此 parent 必须等到 child 完成该工作(child 将继续做其他工作).

我想用监视器来实现它,所以我编写了以下代码:

public class WaitChildThreadMonitor {

public static final int TOTAL_COUNT_AMOUNT = 1_000;
static int count = 0;

class Child implements Runnable {

    @Override
    public void run() {
        work();
    }

    public synchronized void work() {

        letParentWaitForThis();

        for (int i = 0; i < TOTAL_COUNT_AMOUNT; i++)
            ++WaitChildThreadMonitor.count;

        this.notifyAll();

        // More child work that parent doesn't need right now
        //  ...
        for (int i = 0; i < TOTAL_COUNT_AMOUNT; i++)
            ++WaitChildThreadMonitor.count;
    }

    private void letParentWaitForThis() {

        try {
            Thread.sleep(100);
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {}

    }

    public synchronized void waitForWork() throws InterruptedException {
        this.wait();
    }
}

void main() throws InterruptedException {

    Child child = new Child();
    Thread childThread = new Thread(child);

    // If the next two methods doesn't execute atomically,
    //      parent execution gets blocked forever
    childThread.start();
    child.waitForWork();

    System.out.printf("Count value is %d\n", WaitChildThreadMonitor.count);
    childThread.join();

}

public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
    (new WaitChildThreadMonitor()).main();
}

}

问题是,如果child在parent完成主要工作后执行"this.notifyAll()",然后"child.waitForWork()"执行"this.wait()",parent 不会收到通知,将永远被阻止。

我试图解决这个问题,在 child 使用 Thread.sleep() 方法开始他的工作之前强制进行上下文切换。它似乎没有按预期工作。

睡眠和不睡眠,有时 parent 会被阻塞,程序永远不会结束,有时它会正确结束(我猜是因为 parent 在 child 通知之前等待)。

我该如何解决这个问题?

提前致谢!

如果你想等待的事情已经发生,你就不能打电话给wait。这就是调用 wait 的方法是 synchronized 的原因——因此您可以检查代表您正在等待的东西的共享状态。

所以这是一个标准的 producer-consumer 问题。很久以前,我写了一个只使用 synchronizedwait-notify 的实现。我看不到您的代码产生了什么;此代码仅使用 int 作为生成的内容。将 Storage 中的数组类型更改为其他 class 类型。
