有人能告诉我Java中的守护线程是什么吗?


当前回答

答案已经有很多了;然而,也许我可以更清楚地解释这一点,因为当我阅读Daemon Threads时,最初,我有一种感觉,我很好地理解了它;然而,在玩了它并调试了一下之后,我发现了一个奇怪的行为。

我被教导:

如果我想让线程在主线程有序完成执行后立即死亡,我应该将其设置为Diamond。

我尝试了什么:

我从主线程中创建了两个线程,我只将其中一个设置为菱形; 在主线程有序完成执行后,那些新创建的线程都没有退出,但我预计,守护线程应该已经退出; 我浏览了许多博客和文章,到目前为止,我找到的最好、最清晰的定义来自《Java并发实践》一书,它非常清楚地指出:

7.4.2守护线程

Sometimes you want to create a thread that performs some helper function but you don’t want the existence of this thread to prevent the JVM from shutting down. This is what daemon threads are for. Threads are divided into two types: normal threads and daemon threads. When the JVM starts up, all the threads it creates (such as garbage collector and other housekeeping threads) are daemon threads, except the main thread. When a new thread is created, it inherits the daemon status of the thread that created it, so by default any threads created by the main thread are also normal threads. Normal threads and daemon threads differ only in what happens when they exit. When a thread exits, the JVM performs an inventory of running threads, and if the only threads that are left are daemon threads, it initiates an orderly shutdown. When the JVM halts, any remaining daemon threads are abandoned— finally blocks are not executed, stacks are not unwound—the JVM just exits. Daemon threads should be used sparingly—few processing activities can be safely abandoned at any time with no cleanup. In particular, it is dangerous to use daemon threads for tasks that might perform any sort of I/O. Daemon threads are best saved for “housekeeping” tasks, such as a background thread that periodically removes expired entries from an in-memory cache.

守护进程: d(isk) a(nd) e(xecution) mon(itor) or or from de(vice) mon(itor)

Daemon(计算)的定义:

处理打印假脱机和文件传输等服务请求的后台进程,在不需要时处于休眠状态。

Java中的守护线程是什么?

Daemon threads can shut down any time in between their flow, Non-Daemon i.e. user thread executes completely. Daemon threads are threads that run intermittently in the background as long as other non-daemon threads are running. When all of the non-daemon threads complete, daemon threads terminates automatically. Daemon threads are service providers for user threads running in the same process. The JVM does not care about daemon threads to complete when in Running state, not even finally block also let execute. JVM do give preference to non-daemon threads that is created by us. Daemon threads acts as services in Windows. The JVM stops the daemon threads when all user threads (in contrast to the daemon threads) are terminated. Hence daemon threads can be used to implement, for example, a monitoring functionality as the thread is stopped by the JVM as soon as all user threads have stopped.

在Java中,守护线程是一种不阻止Java虚拟机(JVM)退出的线程类型。 守护线程的主要目的是执行后台任务,特别是一些例行的周期性任务或工作。JVM退出时,守护进程线程也会死亡。

通过设置thread. setdaemon (true),线程变成守护线程。但是,您只能在线程启动之前设置这个值。

java线程中的用户线程与守护线程

守护进程的线程

这些线程在Java中是低优先级的线程,在后台运行以执行诸如垃圾收集之类的任务。Java中的守护线程也是一个服务提供者线程,它向用户线程提供服务。

用户线程

这些线程是高优先级线程。JVM将等待任何用户线程在终止它之前完成它的任务

“请记住用户和守护线程都包装在操作系统线程上”

最近OpenJdk在Loom项目中提出了虚拟线程(它们也是基于用户的),你可以在这里找到更多关于Java虚拟机线程的纤维和延续。

下面是一个示例,用于测试在jvm由于不存在用户线程而退出时守护线程的行为。

请注意下面输出的倒数第二行,当主线程退出时,守护线程也死了,并且没有在finally块中打印finally executed9语句。这意味着如果由于不存在用户线程而导致JVM退出,守护线程finally块内关闭的任何i/o资源都不会被关闭。

public class DeamonTreadExample {

public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {

    Thread t = new Thread(() -> {
        int count = 0;
        while (true) {
            count++;
            try {
                System.out.println("inside try"+ count);
                Thread.currentThread().sleep(1000);
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                e.printStackTrace();
            } finally {
                System.out.println("finally executed"+ count);
            }
        }
    });
    t.setDaemon(true);
    t.start();

    Thread.currentThread().sleep(10000);
    System.out.println("main thread exited");
  }
}

输出

inside try1
finally executed1
inside try2
finally executed2
inside try3
finally executed3
inside try4
finally executed4
inside try5
finally executed5
inside try6
finally executed6
inside try7
finally executed7
inside try8
finally executed8
inside try9
finally executed9
inside try10
main thread exited

当最后一个非守护进程线程执行完成时,JVM将完成这项工作。默认情况下,JVM将创建一个线程作为非守护进程,但我们可以通过setDaemon(true)方法将线程创建为守护进程。Daemon线程的一个很好的例子是GC线程,它将在所有非Daemon线程完成后立即完成它的工作。
