线程的礼让（Thread.yield()）方法

在多线程里面有各种各样的方法，其中有一个礼让的方法很有意思，现实生活中所谓的礼让，就是“委屈自己方便他人”!比如过马路，汽车礼让行人，当然这是在国外，国内过个斑马线是要看司机的性格的！那么在线程中是个什么情况呢，下面看一下demo

 

public class yeld {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    ThreadDemo demo = new ThreadDemo();
    Thread thread = new Thread(demo, "花花");
    Thread thread1 = new Thread(demo, "草草");
    thread.start();
    thread1.start();
  }
}

class ThreadDemo implements Runnable {

  @Override
  public void run() {
    for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
      if (i == 3) {
        System.out.println("当前的线程是     " + Thread.currentThread().getName());
        Thread.yield();
      }
      System.out.println("执行的是    " + Thread.currentThread().getName());
    }

  }

}

运行的结果看一下

 

 

执行的是    草草
执行的是    草草
执行的是    草草
当前的线程是     草草//并没有礼让
执行的是    草草
执行的是    草草
执行的是    花花
执行的是    花花
执行的是    花花
当前的线程是     草草//礼让啦
执行的是    花花
执行的是    花花

可以看到有的让了，有的没有让，这是为什么嘞，我们来看一下yield()方法的源码注释，第一行就给了答案：

 

A hint to the scheduler that the current thread is willing to yield
        its current use of a processor. The scheduler is free to ignore this
        hint.
          //暗示调度器让当前线程出让正在使用的处理器。调度器可自由地忽略这种暗示。也就是说让或者不让是看心情哒  
        <p> Yield is a heuristic attempt to improve relative progression
        between threads that would otherwise over-utilise a CPU. Its use
        should be combined with detailed profiling and benchmarking to
        ensure that it actually has the desired effect.
       
        <p> It is rarely appropriate to use this method. It may be useful
        for debugging or testing purposes, where it may help to reproduce
        bugs due to race conditions. It may also be useful when designing
        concurrency control constructs such as the ones in the
        {@link java.util.concurrent.locks}
