Thread类用于操作线程，是所以涉及到线程操作(如并发)的基础。本文将通过源码对Thread类的功能作用进行分析。
一、属性
/* Make sure registerNatives is the first thing <clinit> does. */
private static native void registerNatives();
static {
registerNatives();
}
private volatile String name;
private int priority;
private Thread threadQ;
private long eetop;
/* Whether or not to single_step this thread. */
private boolean single_step;
/* Whether or not the thread is a daemon thread. */
private boolean daemon = false;
/* JVM state */
private boolean stillborn = false;
/* What will be run. */
private Runnable target;
/* The group of this thread */
private ThreadGroup group;
/* The context ClassLoader for this thread */
private ClassLoader contextClassLoader;
/* The inherited AccessControlContext of this thread */
private AccessControlContext inheritedAccessControlContext;
/* For autonumbering anonymous threads. */
private static int threadInitNumber;
private static synchronized int nextThreadNum() {
return threadInitNumber++;
}
/* ThreadLocal values pertaining to this thread. This map is maintained
* by the ThreadLocal class. */
ThreadLocal.ThreadLocalMap threadLocals = null;
/*
* InheritableThreadLocal values pertaining to this thread. This map is
* maintained by the InheritableThreadLocal class.
*/
ThreadLocal.ThreadLocalMap inheritableThreadLocals = null;
/*
* The requested stack size for this thread, or 0 if the creator did
* not specify a stack size. It is up to the VM to do whatever it
* likes with this number; some VMs will ignore it.
*/
private long stackSize;
/*
* JVM-private state that persists after native thread termination.
*/
private long nativeParkEventPointer;
/*
* Thread ID
*/
private long tid;
/* For generating thread ID */
private static long threadSeqNumber;
/* Java thread status for tools,
* initialized to indicate thread 'not yet started'
*/
private volatile int threadStatus = 0;
volatile Object parkBlocker;
/* The object in which this thread is blocked in an interruptible I/O
* operation, if any. The blocker's interrupt method should be invoked
* after setting this thread's interrupt status.
*/
private volatile Interruptible blocker;
private final Object blockerLock = new Object();
public final static int MIN_PRIORITY = 1;
/**
* The default priority that is assigned to a thread.
*/
public final static int NORM_PRIORITY = 5;
/**
* The maximum priority that a thread can have.
*/
public final static int MAX_PRIORITY = 10;
public enum State {
/**
* Thread state for a thread which has not yet started.
*/
NEW,
/**
* Thread state for a runnable thread. A thread in the runnable
* state is executing in the Java virtual machine but it may
* be waiting for other resources from the operating system
* such as processor.
*/
RUNNABLE,
/**
* Thread state for a thread blocked waiting for a monitor lock.
* A thread in the blocked state is waiting for a monitor lock
* to enter a synchronized block/method or
* reenter a synchronized block/method after calling
* {@link Object#wait() Object.wait}.
*/
BLOCKED,
/**
* Thread state for a waiting thread.
* A thread is in the waiting state due to calling one of the
* following methods:
* <ul>
* <li>{@link Object#wait() Object.wait} with no timeout</li>
* <li>{@link #join() Thread.join} with no timeout</li>
* <li>{@link LockSupport#park() LockSupport.park}</li>
* </ul>
*
* <p>A thread in the waiting state is waiting for another thread to
* perform a particular action.
*
* For example, a thread that has called <tt>Object.wait()</tt>
* on an object is waiting for another thread to call
* <tt>Object.notify()</tt> or <tt>Object.notifyAll()</tt> on
* that object. A thread that has called <tt>Thread.join()</tt>
* is waiting for a specified thread to terminate.
*/
WAITING,
/**
* Thread state for a waiting thread with a specified waiting time.
* A thread is in the timed waiting state due to calling one of
* the following methods with a specified positive waiting time:
* <ul>
* <li>{@link #sleep Thread.sleep}</li>
* <li>{@link Object#wait(long) Object.wait} with timeout</li>
* <li>{@link #join(long) Thread.join} with timeout</li>
* <li>{@link LockSupport#parkNanos LockSupport.parkNanos}</li>
* <li>{@link LockSupport#parkUntil LockSupport.parkUntil}</li>
* </ul>
*/
TIMED_WAITING,
/**
* Thread state for a terminated thread.
* The thread has completed execution.
*/
TERMINATED;
}此处重点说一下线程的优先级和状态。
1.线程优先级
private int priority;
public final static int MIN_PRIORITY = 1;
public final static int NORM_PRIORITY = 5;
public final static int MAX_PRIORITY = 10;
public final void setPriority(int newPriority) {
ThreadGroup g;
checkAccess();
if (newPriority > MAX_PRIORITY || newPriority < MIN_PRIORITY) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException();
}
if((g = getThreadGroup()) != null) {
if (newPriority > g.getMaxPriority()) {
newPriority = g.getMaxPriority();
}
setPriority0(priority = newPriority);
}
}
public final int getPriority() {
return priority;
}线程执行有优先级，优先级越高先执行机会越大(并不是一定先执行！！)。优先级用int的priority参数表示。
线程优先级最高为10，最低为1。默认为5
2.线程的状态
public enum State {
NEW,
RUNNABLE,
BLOCKED,
WAITING,
TIMED_WAITING,
TERMINATED;
}
public State getState() {
return sun.misc.VM.toThreadState(threadStatus);
}Thread对象共有6种状态：NEW(新建)，RUNNABLE(运行)，BLOCKED(阻塞)，WAITING(等待)，TIMED_WAITING(有时间的等待)，TERMINATED(终止);状态转换如下：
也有一种说法，我认为也可以：
线程只有”就绪”、”阻塞”、”运行”三种状态(新建[NEW]”和”终止[TERMINATED]”状态的线程并不是线程，只是代表一个线程对象还存在)：
1. RUNNABLE，对应”就绪”和”运行”两种状态，也就是说处于就绪和运行状态的线程在java.lang.Thread中都表现为”RUNNABLE”
2. BLOCKED，对应”阻塞”状态，此线程需要获得某个锁才能继续执行，而这个锁目前被其他线程持有，所以进入了被动的等待状态，直到抢到了那个锁，才会再次进入”就绪”状态
3. WAITING，对应”阻塞”状态，代表此线程正处于无限期的主动等待中，直到有人唤醒它，它才会再次进入就绪状态
4. TIMED_WAITING，对应”阻塞”状态，代表此线程正处于有限期的主动等待中，要么有人唤醒它，要么等待够了一定时间之后，才会再次进入就绪状态
二、构造器
public Thread() {
init(null, null, "Thread-" + nextThreadNum(), 0);
}
public Thread(Runnable target) {
init(null, target, "Thread-" + nextThreadNum(), 0);
}
public Thread(ThreadGroup group, Runnable target) {
init(group, target, "Thread-" + nextThreadNum(), 0);
}
public Thread(String name) {
init(null, null, name, 0);
}
public Thread(ThreadGroup group, String name) {
init(group, null, name, 0);
}
public Thread(Runnable target, String name) {
init(null, target, name, 0);
}
public Thread(ThreadGroup group, Runnable target, String name) {
init(group, target, name, 0);
}
public Thread(ThreadGroup group, Runnable target, String name,
long stackSize) {
init(group, target, name, stackSize);
}
private void init(ThreadGroup g, Runnable target, String name,long stackSize) {
init(g, target, name, stackSize, null, true);
}
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();
}
}
g.checkAccess();
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();
}通过以上代码可以看出，Thread()对外提供了8个构造器，但是都是接收不同参数，然后调用init(ThreadGroup g, Runnable target, String name, long stackSize)方法。故我们只需分析次init()方法即可。
init()方法共有4个参数，分别代表：
- ThreadGroup g 指定当前线程的线程组，未指定时线程组为创建该线程所属的线程组。线程组可以用来管理一组线程，通过activeCount() 来查看活动线程的数量。其他没有什么大的用处。
- Runnable target 指定运行其中的Runnable，一般都需要指定，不指定的线程没有意义，或者可以通过创建Thread的子类并重新run方法。
- String name 线程的名称，不指定自动生成。
- long stackSize 预期堆栈大小，不指定默认为0，0代表忽略这个属性。与平台相关，不建议使用该属性。
三、public方法
Thread Thread.currentThread() ：获得当前线程的引用。获得当前线程后对其进行操作。与this是有区别的。
Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler getDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler() ：返回线程由于未捕获到异常而突然终止时调用的默认处理程序。
int Thread.activeCount()：当前线程所在线程组中活动线程的数目。
void dumpStack() ：将当前线程的堆栈跟踪打印至标准错误流。
int enumerate(Thread[] tarray) ：将当前线程的线程组及其子组中的每一个活动线程复制到指定的数组中。
Map<Thread,StackTraceElement[]> getAllStackTraces() ：返回所有活动线程的堆栈跟踪的一个映射。
boolean holdsLock(Object obj) ：当且仅当当前线程在指定的对象上保持监视器锁时，才返回 true。
boolean interrupted() ：测试当前线程是否已经中断。
void setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler(Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler eh) ：设置当线程由于未捕获到异常而突然终止，并且没有为该线程定义其他处理程序时所调用的默认处理程序。
void sleep(long millis) ：休眠指定时间
void sleep(long millis, int nanos) ：休眠指定时间
void yield() ：暂停当前正在执行的线程对象，并执行其他线程。意义不太大
void checkAccess() ：判定当前运行的线程是否有权修改该线程。
ClassLoader getContextClassLoader() ：返回该线程的上下文 ClassLoader。
long getId() ：返回该线程的标识符。
String getName() ：返回该线程的名称。
int getPriority() ：返回线程的优先级。
StackTraceElement[] getStackTrace() ：返回一个表示该线程堆栈转储的堆栈跟踪元素数组。
Thread.State getState() ：返回该线程的状态。
ThreadGroup getThreadGroup() ：返回该线程所属的线程组。
Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler getUncaughtExceptionHandler() ：返回该线程由于未捕获到异常而突然终止时调用的处理程序。
void interrupt() ：中断线程。
boolean isAlive() ：测试线程是否处于活动状态。
boolean isDaemon() ：测试该线程是否为守护线程。
boolean isInterrupted()：测试线程是否已经中断。
void join() ：等待该线程终止。
void join(long millis) ：等待该线程终止的时间最长为 millis 毫秒。
void join(long millis, int nanos) ：等待该线程终止的时间最长为 millis 毫秒 + nanos 纳秒。
void run() ：线程启动后执行的方法。
void setContextClassLoader(ClassLoader cl) ：设置该线程的上下文 ClassLoader。
void setDaemon(boolean on) ：将该线程标记为守护线程或用户线程。
void start()：使该线程开始执行；Java 虚拟机调用该线程的 run 方法。
String toString()：返回该线程的字符串表示形式，包括线程名称、优先级和线程组。---------------------
