测试代码:
package com.led.test; /** * @author Alan * @date 2018/6/18 15:09 * @description 测试同一个线程多次调用start()方法 */ public class MuchStart implements Runnable{ //实现Runnable接口 public void run() { System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + "is running ..."); } public static void main(String[] args) { MuchStart muchStart = new MuchStart(); Thread t = new Thread(muchStart);//创建实现了Runnable接口的Thread实例 t.start();//多次调用start()方法 t.start(); t.start(); } }
测试结果:
线程首先会运行一次,然后抛出java.lang.IllegalThreadStateException异常。
接下来深入源码分析下原因:
我们根据控制台的异常信息,定位到Thread.java的第708行,也就start()方法内部,打个断点调试:
调试发现,第一个次运行start()方法时,threadStatus是0,此时if条件不满足,继续执行,会将当前线程添加到线程组中去执行。第二次运行start()方法时,threadStatus变成了2,if条件满足,于是抛出了java.lang.IllegalThreadStateException异常。
Thread-0is running ... Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalThreadStateException at java.lang.Thread.start(Thread.java:708) at com.led.test.MuchStart.main(MuchStart.java:17)
start()源码进行分析:
/** * Causes this thread to begin execution; the Java Virtual Machine * calls the <code>run</code> method of this thread. 让这个线程开始执行。JVM会调用这个线程的run()方法。 * <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.一个线程多次调用start()方法是非法的。 * In particular, a thread may not be restarted once it has completed * execution. *特别说明:一个线程执行完后,不太可能重新运行。 * @exception IllegalThreadStateException if the thread was already * started. 如果该线程已经启动,则再次调用start()方法,就会抛出IllegalThreadStateException异常。 * @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)//新的线程threadState值是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);//通知线程组该线程将要开始运行,这样该线程就会被添加到线程列表中,此时列表的unstarted数将会减少。 boolean started = false; try { start0();//调用原生方法态方法启动线程 started = true;//已经运行的标记设置为true } finally { try { if (!started) {//若开始运行标记未设置成功,则通知线程组该线程尝试运行失败 group.threadStartFailed(this); } } catch (Throwable ignore) { /* do nothing. If start0 threw a Throwable then it will be passed up the call stack */ } } }
group.add(this) ---线程组添加线程源码分析:
/** * Adds the specified thread to this thread group. * 添加特定的线程到该线程组 * <p> Note: This method is called from both library code * and the Virtual Machine. It is called from VM to add * certain system threads to the system thread group. * * @param t * the Thread to be added * * @throws IllegalThreadStateException * if the Thread group has been destroyed */ void add(Thread t) { synchronized (this) {//线程同步 if (destroyed) {//如果线程组的销毁标记(destroyed)是true,则抛出IllegalThreadStateException throw new IllegalThreadStateException(); } if (threads == null) {//如果线程数组为空,则初始为4个新的线程 threads = new Thread[4]; } else if (nthreads == threads.length) {//如果当前线程组已满,则扩容至原来的2倍 threads = Arrays.copyOf(threads, nthreads * 2); } threads[nthreads] = t;//将当前线程放入线程数组的末尾 // This is done last so it doesn't matter in case the // thread is killed nthreads++;//线程数组元素个数+1 // The thread is now a fully fledged member of the group, even // though it may, or may not, have been started yet. It will prevent // the group from being destroyed so the unstarted Threads count is // decremented. nUnstartedThreads--;//未启动线程数-1 } }
start0()代码分析:
private native void start0();//原生态代码,源码不在当前文件中,调用的其它文件的代码(可能是c/c++写的代码)
threadStartFailed()源码分析:
/** * Notifies the group that the thread {@code t} has failed * an attempt to start. * 通知线程组该线程尝试运行失败 * <p> The state of this thread group is rolled back as if the * attempt to start the thread has never occurred. The thread is again * considered an unstarted member of the thread group, and a subsequent * attempt to start the thread is permitted. * * @param t * the Thread whose start method was invoked */ void threadStartFailed(Thread t) { synchronized(this) {//同步 remove(t);//从线程组中移除该线程 nUnstartedThreads++;//未启动线程数+1 } }
总结:
同一个线程只能调用start()方法一次,多次调用会抛出java.lang.IllegalThreadStateException。启动一个线程,需要调用start()方法而不是run()方法。此时,当前线程会被添加到线程组中,进入就绪状态,等待线程调度器的调用,若获取到了资源,则能进入运行状态,run()方法只是线程体,即线程执行的内容,若没调用start()方法,run()方法只是一个普通的方法。
