41 * A synchronization aid that allows one or more threads to wait until
42 * a set of operations being performed in other threads completes.
44 * <p>A {@code CountDownLatch} is initialized with a given <em>count</em>.
45 * The {@link #await await} methods block until the current count reaches
46 * zero due to invocations of the {@link #countDown} method, after which
47 * all waiting threads are released and any subsequent invocations of
48 * {@link #await await} return immediately. This is a one-shot phenomenon
49 * -- the count cannot be reset. If you need a version that resets the
50 * count, consider using a {@link CyclicBarrier}.
52 * <p>A {@code CountDownLatch} is a versatile synchronization tool
53 * and can be used for a number of purposes. A
54 * {@code CountDownLatch} initialized with a count of one serves as a
55 * simple on/off latch, or gate: all threads invoking {@link #await await}
56 * wait at the gate until it is opened by a thread invoking {@link
57 * #countDown}. A {@code CountDownLatch} initialized to <em>N</em>
58 * can be used to make one thread wait until <em>N</em> threads have
59 * completed some action, or some action has been completed N times.
61 * <p>A useful property of a {@code CountDownLatch} is that it
62 * doesn't require that threads calling {@code countDown} wait for
63 * the count to reach zero before proceeding, it simply prevents any
64 * thread from proceeding past an {@link #await await} until all
67 * <p><b>Sample usage:</b> Here is a pair of classes in which a group
68 * of worker threads use two countdown latches:
70 * <li>The first is a start signal that prevents any worker from proceeding
71 * until the driver is ready for them to proceed;
72 * <li>The second is a completion signal that allows the driver to wait
73 * until all workers have completed.
77 * class Driver { // ...
78 * void main() throws InterruptedException {
79 * CountDownLatch startSignal = new CountDownLatch(1);
80 * CountDownLatch doneSignal = new CountDownLatch(N);
82 * for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) // create and start threads
83 * new Thread(new Worker(startSignal, doneSignal)).start();
85 * doSomethingElse(); // don't let run yet
86 * startSignal.countDown(); // let all threads proceed
88 * doneSignal.await(); // wait for all to finish
92 * class Worker implements Runnable {
93 * private final CountDownLatch startSignal;
94 * private final CountDownLatch doneSignal;
95 * Worker(CountDownLatch startSignal, CountDownLatch doneSignal) {
96 * this.startSignal = startSignal;
97 * this.doneSignal = doneSignal;
101 * startSignal.await();
103 * doneSignal.countDown();
104 * } catch (InterruptedException ex) {} // return;
107 * void doWork() { ... }
112 * <p>Another typical usage would be to divide a problem into N parts,
113 * describe each part with a Runnable that executes that portion and
114 * counts down on the latch, and queue all the Runnables to an
115 * Executor. When all sub-parts are complete, the coordinating thread
116 * will be able to pass through await. (When threads must repeatedly
117 * count down in this way, instead use a {@link CyclicBarrier}.)
120 * class Driver2 { // ...
121 * void main() throws InterruptedException {
122 * CountDownLatch doneSignal = new CountDownLatch(N);
125 * for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) // create and start threads
126 * e.execute(new WorkerRunnable(doneSignal, i));
128 * doneSignal.await(); // wait for all to finish
132 * class WorkerRunnable implements Runnable {
133 * private final CountDownLatch doneSignal;
134 * private final int i;
135 * WorkerRunnable(CountDownLatch doneSignal, int i) {
136 * this.doneSignal = doneSignal;
139 * public void run() {
142 * doneSignal.countDown();
143 * } catch (InterruptedException ex) {} // return;
146 * void doWork() { ... }
151 * <p>Memory consistency effects: Until the count reaches
152 * zero, actions in a thread prior to calling
153 * {@code countDown()}
154 * <a href="package-summary.html#MemoryVisibility"><i>happen-before</i></a>
155 * actions following a successful return from a corresponding
156 * {@code await()} in another thread.
