java.util.concurrent.locks.Condition接口提供一个线程挂起执行的能力，直到给定的条件为真。 Condition对象必须绑定到Lock，并使用newCondition()方法获取对象。

Condition类的方法

以下是Condition类中可用的重要方法的列表。

实例

以下TestThread程序演示了Condition接口的这些方法。这里我们使用signal()通知和await()挂起线程。

import java.util.concurrent.locks.Condition;
import java.util.concurrent.locks.Lock;
import java.util.concurrent.locks.ReentrantLock;

public class TestThread {

   public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException{
      ItemQueue itemQueue = new ItemQueue(10);

      //Create a producer and a consumer.
      Thread producer = new Producer(itemQueue);
      Thread consumer = new Consumer(itemQueue);

      //Start both threads.
      producer.start();
      consumer.start();

      //Wait for both threads to terminate.
      producer.join();
      consumer.join();
   }

   static class ItemQueue {

      private Object[] items = null;
      private int current = 0;
      private int placeIndex = 0;
      private int removeIndex = 0;

      private final Lock lock;
      private final Condition isEmpty;
      private final Condition isFull;

      public ItemQueue(int capacity) {
         this.items = new Object[capacity];
         lock = new ReentrantLock();
         isEmpty = lock.newCondition();
         isFull = lock.newCondition();
      }

      public void add(Object item) throws InterruptedException {
         lock.lock();
         while(current >= items.length)
            isFull.await();

         items[placeIndex] = item;

         placeIndex = (placeIndex + 1) % items.length;

         ++current;

         //Notify the consumer that there is data available.
         isEmpty.signal();

         lock.unlock();
      }

      public Object remove() throws InterruptedException {
         Object item = null;

         lock.lock();
         while(current <= 0){
            isEmpty.await();
         }
         item = items[removeIndex];

         removeIndex = (removeIndex + 1) % items.length;

         --current;

         //Notify the producer that there is space available.
         isFull.signal();
         lock.unlock();

         return item;
      }

      public boolean isEmpty(){
         return (items.length == 0);
      }
   }

   static class Producer extends Thread {

      private final ItemQueue queue;
      public Producer(ItemQueue queue) {
         this.queue = queue;
      }

      @Override
      public void run() {
         String[] numbers = {"1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "11", "12"};

         try {
            for(String number: numbers){
               queue.add(number);
               System.out.println("[Producer]: " + number);
            }
            queue.add(null);
         }
         catch (InterruptedException ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
         } 
      }
   }

   static class Consumer extends Thread {

      private final ItemQueue queue;
      public Consumer(ItemQueue queue) {
         this.queue = queue;
      }

      @Override
      public void run() {
         try {
            do {
               Object number = queue.remove();
               System.out.println("[Consumer]: " + number);
               if(number == null){
                  return;
               }
            } while(!queue.isEmpty());
         }
         catch (InterruptedException ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
         }
      }
   }
}

这将产生以下结果。

[Producer]: 1
[Consumer]: 1
[Producer]: 2
[Consumer]: 2
[Producer]: 3
[Consumer]: 3
[Producer]: 4
[Consumer]: 4
[Producer]: 5
[Producer]: 6
[Consumer]: 5
[Producer]: 7
[Consumer]: 6
[Consumer]: 7
[Producer]: 8
[Consumer]: 8
[Producer]: 9
[Consumer]: 9
[Producer]: 10
[Consumer]: 10
[Producer]: 11
[Consumer]: 11
[Producer]: 12
[Consumer]: 12
[Consumer]: null
