在Thread类中,我们可以看到有个内部枚举类State:
/** * A thread state. A thread can be in one of the following states: * NEW A thread that has not yet started is in this state. * RUNNABLE A thread executing in the Java virtual machine is in this state. * BLOCKED A thread that is blocked waiting for a monitor lock is in this state. * WAITING A thread that is waiting indefinitely for another thread to perform a particular action is in this state. * TIMED_WAITING A thread that is waiting for another thread to perform an action for up to a specified waiting time is in this state. * TERMINATED A thread that has exited is in this state. * A thread can be in only one state at a given point in time. These states are virtual machine states which do not reflect any operating system thread states. */ 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. * <p> * 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; }
Java线程共有六种状态,并且线程在同一时间只能处于一种状态。这些状态都是虚拟机状态,并不反应任何操作系统的线程状态:
NEW
RUNNABLE
BLOCKED
WAITING
TIMED_WAITING
TERMINATED
翻译一下源码中的注释,我们可以用下面这张图表示出线程状态转换关系:
那new->runnable->terminated这三种状态能不能回退呢?我们写个demo测试下:
@Test public void thread1() throws InterruptedException { Thread thread = new Thread(() -> System.out.println("hello,我是子线程,我的name是:" + Thread.currentThread().getName())); thread.start(); thread.start(); System.out.println(thread.getState()); thread.join(); System.out.println("hello,我是主线程,我的name是:" + Thread.currentThread().getName()); }
可以看到,不出意外的抛了异常:
我们去瞅一眼start方法:
可以看到,start方法上来就对线程的状态进行了判断,只有status=0,也就是刚创建出来的线程才可以。那么我们就可以得出结论new->runnable->terminated这三种状态是不可逆的。
