当调用start()方法的时候,JVM会创建一个新的线程,而run方法会沿用主线程所在的线程.
JDK文档中是这样描述的
- start
public void start()
导致此线程开始执行; Java虚拟机调用此线程的run方法。
结果是两个线程同时运行：当前线程（从调用返回到start方法）和另一个线程（执行其run方法）。
不止一次启动线程是不合法的。 特别地，一旦线程完成执行就可能不会重新启动。
*异常 *:IllegalThreadStateException - 如果线程已经启动。
- run
public void run()
如果这个线程是使用单独的Runnable运行对象构造的，则Runnable对象的run方法; 否则，此方法不执行任何操作并返回。
Thread的Thread应该覆盖此方法。
start()方法源码
其中最关键的就是Native方法start0()
这里给个小提示,进入源码列表是http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/jdk/file
start0()方法引自于jvm.h中的JVM_StartThread()方法
JVM_StartThread()源码网址http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/hotspot/file/7576bbd5a03c/src/share/vm/prims/jvm.cpp
部分源码,选中的蓝色部分是核心代码
选中代码就是去创建一个新的线程
代码效果演示:
- 自定义MyThread类
public class MyThread extends Thread {
private String name;
public MyThread(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
@Override
public void run() {
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
System.out.println("Thread start : "+ this.name + " i = "+i);
}
}
}
- 创建测试类ThreadDemo
- 1.调用start()方法
public class ThreadDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) {
MyThread thread1 = new MyThread("Thread1");
MyThread thread2 = new MyThread("Thread2");
MyThread thread3 = new MyThread("Thread3");
thread1.start();
thread2.start();
thread3.start();
}
}
运行结果
Thread start : Thread1 i = 0
Thread start : Thread2 i = 0
Thread start : Thread1 i = 1
Thread start : Thread2 i = 1
Thread start : Thread1 i = 2
Thread start : Thread2 i = 2
Thread start : Thread1 i = 3
Thread start : Thread2 i = 3
Thread start : Thread1 i = 4
Thread start : Thread2 i = 4
Thread start : Thread3 i = 0
Thread start : Thread3 i = 1
Thread start : Thread3 i = 2
Thread start : Thread3 i = 3
Thread start : Thread3 i = 4
- 2.调用run方法
public class ThreadDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) {
MyThread thread1 = new MyThread("Thread1");
MyThread thread2 = new MyThread("Thread2");
MyThread thread3 = new MyThread("Thread3");
thread1.run();
thread2.run();
thread3.run();
}
}
运行结果
Thread start : Thread1 i = 0
Thread start : Thread1 i = 1
Thread start : Thread1 i = 2
Thread start : Thread1 i = 3
Thread start : Thread1 i = 4
Thread start : Thread2 i = 0
Thread start : Thread2 i = 1
Thread start : Thread2 i = 2
Thread start : Thread2 i = 3
Thread start : Thread2 i = 4
Thread start : Thread3 i = 0
Thread start : Thread3 i = 1
Thread start : Thread3 i = 2
Thread start : Thread3 i = 3
Thread start : Thread3 i = 4
