通常lock对象都是final的，它锁住的是mLock.lock()和mLock.unlock()之间的代码块。也就是说所有使用了同一mLock对象的锁块之间是互斥的。
import java.util.concurrent.locks.ReentrantLock;
public class LockTest{
public static void main(String[] args){
final ReentrantLock mLock = new ReentrantLock();
Thread t = new Thread(){
public void run(){
for(int i = 0; i < 3; i++){
try{
mLock.lock();
System.out.println("thread 2 running i = " + i + " start");
sleep(3000);
System.out.println("thread 2 running i = " + i + " end");
}catch(Exception e){
}finally{
mLock.unlock();
}
}
}
};
t.start();
for(int i = 0; i < 3; i++){
try{
mLock.lock();
System.out.println("thread main running i = " + i + " start");
Thread.sleep(2000);
System.out.println("thread main running i = " + i + " end");
}catch(Exception e){
}finally{
mLock.unlock();
}
}
}
}
如上代码段，注释掉两个mLock.lock()，执行结果如下：
thread main running i = 0 start thread 2 running i = 0 start thread main running i = 0 end thread main running i = 1 start thread 2 running i = 0 end thread 2 running i = 1 start thread main running i = 1 end thread main running i = 2 start thread 2 running i = 1 end thread 2 running i = 2 start thread main running i = 2 end thread 2 running i = 2 end
线程是交替执行的，如果代码区内有共享内容，将会出现线程安全问题。
有锁的情况下，执行结果如下：
thread main running i = 0 start thread main running i = 0 end thread main running i = 1 start thread main running i = 1 end thread main running i = 2 start thread main running i = 2 end thread 2 running i = 0 start thread 2 running i = 0 end thread 2 running i = 1 start thread 2 running i = 1 end thread 2 running i = 2 start thread 2 running i = 2 end
不会同时访问锁块之间的内容。
当使用公平锁——mLock =new ReentrantLock(true)，执行结果如下：
thread main running i = 0 start thread main running i = 0 end thread 2 running i = 0 start thread 2 running i = 0 end thread main running i = 1 start thread main running i = 1 end thread 2 running i = 1 start thread 2 running i = 1 end thread main running i = 2 start thread main running i = 2 end thread 2 running i = 2 start thread 2 running i = 2 end
