JAVA多线程之中断机制stop()、interrupted()、isInterrupted()

一，介绍

本文记录JAVA多线程中的中断机制的一些知识点。主要是stop方法、interrupted()与isInterrupted()方法的区别，并从源代码的实现上进行简单分析。

JAVA中有3种方式可以终止正在运行的线程

①线程正常退出，即run()方法执行完毕了

②使用Thread类中的stop()方法强行终止线程。但stop()方法已经过期了，不推荐使用

③使用中断机制

线程正常退出没有什么东东，中断机制下面详细介绍，先看下stop()方法的源代码，关键是源代码上的注释。它解释了为什么stop()不安全，stop()方法停止的是哪个线程？

/**
* Forces the thread to stop executing.
* 

* If there is a security manager installed, its checkAccess
* method is called with this
* as its argument. This may result in a
* SecurityException being raised (in the current thread).
* 

* If this thread is different from the current thread (that is, the current
* thread is trying to stop a thread other than itself), the
* security manager's checkPermission method (with a
* RuntimePermission("stopThread") argument) is called in
* addition.
* Again, this may result in throwing a
* SecurityException (in the current thread).
* 

* The thread represented by this thread is forced to stop whatever
* it is doing abnormally and to throw a newly created
* ThreadDeath object as an exception.
* 

* It is permitted to stop a thread that has not yet been started.
* If the thread is eventually started, it immediately terminates.
* 

* An application should not normally try to catch
* ThreadDeath unless it must do some extraordinary
* cleanup operation (note that the throwing of
* ThreadDeath causes finally clauses of
* try statements to be executed before the thread
* officially dies). If a catch clause catches a
* ThreadDeath object, it is important to rethrow the
* object so that the thread actually dies.
* 

* The top-level error handler that reacts to otherwise uncaught
* exceptions does not print out a message or otherwise notify the
* application if the uncaught exception is an instance of
* ThreadDeath.
*
* @exception SecurityException if the current thread cannot
* modify this thread.
* @see #interrupt()
* @see #checkAccess()
* @see #run()
* @see #start()
* @see ThreadDeath
* @see ThreadGroup#uncaughtException(Thread,Throwable)
* @see SecurityManager#checkAccess(Thread)
* @see SecurityManager#checkPermission
* @deprecated This method is inherently unsafe. Stopping a thread with
* Thread.stop causes it to unlock all of the monitors that it
* has locked (as a natural consequence of the unchecked
* ThreadDeath exception propagating up the stack). If
* any of the objects previously protected by these monitors were in
* an inconsistent state, the damaged objects become visible to
* other threads, potentially resulting in arbitrary behavior. Many
* uses of stop should be replaced by code that simply
* modifies some variable to indicate that the target thread should
* stop running. The target thread should check this variable
* regularly, and return from its run method in an orderly fashion
* if the variable indicates that it is to stop running. If the
* target thread waits for long periods (on a condition variable,
* for example), the interrupt method should be used to
* interrupt the wait.
* For more information, see
* Why
* are Thread.stop, Thread.suspend and Thread.resume Deprecated?.
*/
@Deprecated
public final void stop() {
stop(new ThreadDeath());
}

上面注释，第9行到第16行表明，stop()方法可以停止“其他线程”。执行thread.stop()方法这条语句的线程称为当前线程，而“其他线程”则是 调用thread.stop()方法的对象thread所代表的线程。

如：

public static void main(String[] args) {
MyThread thread = new MyThread...
//.....
thread.stop();
//....
}

在main方法中，当前线程就是main线程。它执行到第4行，想把“其他线程”thread“ 给停止。这个其他线程就是MyThread类 new 的thread对象所表示的线程。

第21行至23行表明，可以停止一个尚未started(启动)的线程。它的效果是：当该线程启动后，就立马结束了。

第48行以后的注释，则深刻表明了为什么stop()方法被弃用！为什么它是不安全的。

比如说，threadA线程拥有了监视器，这些监视器负责保护某些临界资源，比如说银行的转账的金额。当正在转账过程中，main线程调用 threadA.stop()方法。结果导致监视器被释放，其保护的资源（转账金额）很可能出现不一致性。比如，A账户减少了100，而B账户却没有增加100

二，中断机制

JAVA中如何正确地使用中断机制的细节太多了。interrupted()方法与 isInterrupted()方法都是反映当前线程的是否处于中断状态的。

①interrupted()

/**
* Tests whether the current thread has been interrupted. The
* interrupted status of the thread is cleared by this method. In
* other words, if this method were to be called twice in succession, the
* second call would return false (unless the current thread were
* interrupted again, after the first call had cleared its interrupted
* status and before the second call had examined it).
*
* 
A thread interruption ignored because a thread was not alive
* at the time of the interrupt will be reflected by this method
* returning false.
*
* @return true if the current thread has been interrupted;
* false otherwise.
* @see #isInterrupted()
* @revised .
*/
public static boolean interrupted() {
return currentThread().isInterrupted(true);
}

从源码的注释中看出，它测试的是当前线程(current thread)的中断状态，且这个方法会清除中断状态。

②isInterrupted()

/**
* Tests whether this thread has been interrupted. The interrupted
* status of the thread is unaffected by this method.
*
* 
A thread interruption ignored because a thread was not alive
* at the time of the interrupt will be reflected by this method
* returning false.
*
* @return true if this thread has been interrupted;
* false otherwise.
* @see #interrupted()
* @revised .
*/
public boolean isInterrupted() {
return isInterrupted(false);
}

从源码注释中可以看出，isInterrupted()方法不会清除中断状态。

③interrupted()方法与 isInterrupted()方法的区别

从源代码可以看出，这两个方法都是调用的isInterrupted(boolean ClearInterrupted),只不过一个带的参数是true，另一个带的参数是false。

/**
* Tests if some Thread has been interrupted. The interrupted state
* is reset or not based on the value of ClearInterrupted that is
* passed.
*/
private native boolean isInterrupted(boolean ClearInterrupted);

因此，第一个区别就是，一个会清除中断标识位，另一个不会清除中断标识位。

再分析源码，就可以看出第二个区别在return 语句上：

public static boolean interrupted() {
return currentThread().isInterrupted(true);
}
/************************/
public boolean isInterrupted() {
return isInterrupted(false);
}

interrupted()测试的是当前的线程的中断状态。而isInterrupted()测试的是调用该方法的对象所表示的线程。一个是静态方法（它测试的是当前线程的中断状态），一个是实例方法（它测试的是实例对象所表示的线程的中断状态）。

下面用个具体的例子来更进一步地阐明这个区别。

有一个自定义的线程类如下：

public class MyThread extends Thread {
@Override
public void run() {
super.run();
for (int i = ; i < ; i++) {
System.out.println("i=" + (i + ));
}
}
}

先看interrupted()方法的示例：

public class Run {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
MyThread thread = new MyThread();
thread.start();
Thread.sleep();
thread.interrupt();
//Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
System.out.println("是否停止？="+thread.interrupted());//false
System.out.println("是否停止？="+thread.interrupted());//false main线程没有被中断!!!
　　　　　　//......

第5行启动thread线程，第6行使main线程睡眠1秒钟从而使得thread线程有机会获得CPU执行。

main线程睡眠1s钟后，恢复执行到第7行，请求中断 thread线程。

第9行测试线程是否处于中断状态，这里测试的是哪个线程呢？？？答案是main线程。因为：

（1）interrupted()测试的是当前的线程的中断状态

（2）main线程执行了第9行语句，故main线程是当前线程

再看isInterrupted()方法的示例：

public class Run {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
MyThread thread = new MyThread();
thread.start();
Thread.sleep();
thread.interrupt();
System.out.println("是否停止？="+thread.isInterrupted());//true

在第8行，是thread对象调用的isInterrupted()方法。因此，测试的是thread对象所代表的线程的中断状态。由于在第7行，main线程请求中断 thread线程，故在第8行的结果为: true
