Foil 17 Waiting and Notification

From Elements of Concurrent Programming in Java Tango Group Internal Technology Seminars -- Spring 99. by Lukasz Beca
notify - resulting actions
  • remove arbitrary thread T from the wait queue
  • T must re-obtain the synchronization lock for the target object
  • resume T at the point of its wait
notifyAll works in the same way, but the steps occur for all threads in the wait queue
wait with time parameter - notify is invoked automatically when the specified time passes
