ThreadLocal类分析

首先试想一个场景:

多个线程都要访问数据库,先要获得一个Connection,然后执行一些操作。为了线程安全,如果用synchronized锁定一个Connection对象,那么任何时候,都只有一个线程能通过Connection对象操作数据库。这样的话,程序的效率太低。反过来,如果每次需要Connection对象就去new一个的话,就会同时存在数量庞大的数据库连接,你受得了,数据库受不了。于是就有人提出折中方案:为每个线程只生成一个Connection对象,这样别的线程访问不到这个对象,线程安全问题解决;而且无论线程有多少地方需要数据库连接,都是在复用这个Connection对象,数据库的压力会小很多。

其实不仅仅是数据库,其它的场景比如说,SimpleDateFormat。我们处理日期的时候,经常要用到这个类,但是这个类不是线程安全的,在多线程下是会出问题的。这时候,采用上述折中方案是比较合理的。

那么如何实现这种折中方案呢?我们先动手试一试呗!!!

要确保某类型的变量,每个线程只有一份。因为每个线程的ID是唯一的,这是JVM保证的,所有我们可以定义一个Map:线程ID作为key,我们要用的变量作为value。

稍微对这个Map进行简单的封装,当做一个类来用:

 

package threadlocal;import java.util.HashMap;import java.util.Map;public class ThreadLocalVar<T> {    Map<Long, T> threadVarMap = new HashMap<Long, T>();        public T get() {        return threadVarMap.get(Thread.currentThread().getId());    }        public void set(T value) {        threadVarMap.put(Thread.currentThread().getId(), value);    }}

 

接下来,就把这个类扔到多线程环境里面练一练

package threadlocal;public class MyTest {    ThreadLocalVar<Long> longLocal = new ThreadLocalVar<Long>();    ThreadLocalVar<String> stringLocal = new ThreadLocalVar<String>();          public void set() {        longLocal.set(Thread.currentThread().getId());        stringLocal.set(Thread.currentThread().getName());    }         public long getLong() {        return longLocal.get();    }         public String getString() {        return stringLocal.get();    }         public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {        final MyTest test = new MyTest();                 test.set();        System.out.println(test.getLong());        System.out.println(test.getString());             for (int i=0; i<3; i++) {             Thread thread1 = new Thread(){                public void run() {                    test.set();                    System.out.println(test.getLong());                    System.out.println(test.getString());                };            };            thread1.start();            thread1.join();        }                 System.out.println(test.getLong());        System.out.println(test.getString());    }}

这个程序很简单,看一遍就能明白具体逻辑。虽然都是调用的同一个对象test的getLong和getString方法,但是不同的线程获取到的值不一样。

运行结果:

哈哈,我们就是使用了奇淫巧技,把一个对象简单的get和set操作,转到了对Map的get和set操作。如果光看MyTest这个类,再看结果,还是挺迷惑的吧。

这个时候就有人说了,Java的ThreadLocal机制,不是这么实现的。对,也不对。JDK之前的老版本其实就是这么实现来着,不过后来改了。为什么改,且听我慢慢道来。

先上一个真正的ThreadLocal版本的test程序:

 

package threadlocal;public class Test {    ThreadLocal<Long> longLocal = new ThreadLocal<Long>();    ThreadLocal<String> stringLocal = new ThreadLocal<String>();          public void set() {        longLocal.set(Thread.currentThread().getId());        stringLocal.set(Thread.currentThread().getName());    }         public long getLong() {        return longLocal.get();    }         public String getString() {        return stringLocal.get();    }         public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {        final Test test = new Test();                          test.set();        System.out.println(test.getLong());        System.out.println(test.getString());                      for (int i=0; i<3; i++) {             Thread thread1 = new Thread(){                public void run() {                    test.set();                    System.out.println(test.getLong());                    System.out.println(test.getString());                };            };            thread1.start();            thread1.join();        }                 System.out.println(test.getLong());        System.out.println(test.getString());    }}

 

和我们之前的test程序唯一的区别,就是使用了Java自带的ThreadLocal类,那就进去看一看。

    /**     * Returns the value in the current thread's copy of this     * thread-local variable.  If the variable has no value for the     * current thread, it is first initialized to the value returned     * by an invocation of the {@link #initialValue} method.     *     * @return the current thread's value of this thread-local     */    public T get() {        Thread t = Thread.currentThread();        // 其实还是通过Map的数据结构        ThreadLocalMap map = getMap(t);        if (map != null) {            ThreadLocalMap.Entry e = map.getEntry(this);            if (e != null) {                @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")                T result = (T)e.value;                return result;            }        }        return setInitialValue();    }

这是ThreadLocal的get方法,最终还是Map操作,但是这个Map以及Map里面的Entry都是为ThreadLocal专门定制的,后面再说。看看getMap方法的逻辑

    /**     * Get the map associated with a ThreadLocal. Overridden in     * InheritableThreadLocal.     *     * @param  t the current thread     * @return the map     */    ThreadLocalMap getMap(Thread t) {        return t.threadLocals;    }
    /* ThreadLocal values pertaining to this thread. This map is maintained     * by the ThreadLocal class. */    // 定义在Thread类里面    ThreadLocal.ThreadLocalMap threadLocals = null;

从这里能看出2点:

1、ThreadLocalMap这个Map是ThreadLocal的内部类

2、这个Map的持有者是Thread类,就是说每个线程都直接持有自己的Map

第2点跟我们之前的实现思路截然不同,我们定义的ThreadLocalVar类不被任何线程直接持有,只是独立的第三方,保持各个线程的数据。

后面再详细分析这里为什么要这么实现。

 

先来看看ThreadLocal的内部类ThreadLocalMap的内部类Entry(别绕晕了)

 

        static class Entry extends WeakReference<ThreadLocal<?>> {            /** The value associated with this ThreadLocal. */            Object value;            Entry(ThreadLocal<?> k, Object v) {                super(k);                value = v;            }        }

 

Entry继承自弱引用,说明持有key的弱引用,而且key是ThreadLocal类型(跟之前的实现方式也截然不同)。

为了说明ThreadLocal的实现机制和类直接的关系,从网上盗一张图,图中实线是强引用,虚线是弱引用。

 

 

 

每个线程持有Map有什么好处?

1、线程消失,Map跟着消失,释放了内存

2、保存数据的Map数量变多了,但是每个Map里面Entry数量变少了。之前的实现里面,每个Map里面的Entry数量是线程的个数,现在是ThreadLocal的个数。熟悉Map数据结构的人都知道,这样对Map的操作性能会提升。

至于为什么要用弱引用,先来看看Entry类的注释

 

        /**         * The entries in this hash map extend WeakReference, using         * its main ref field as the key (which is always a         * ThreadLocal object).  Note that null keys (i.e. entry.get()         * == null) mean that the key is no longer referenced, so the         * entry can be expunged from table.  Such entries are referred to         * as "stale entries" in the code that follows.         */

 

简单来说,就是当ThreadLocal类型的key不再被引用时(值为null),对应的Entry能够被删除。

具体的实现就是,get操作会调用expungeStaleEntry,set操作会调用replaceStaleEntry,它们的效果就是遇到的key为null的Entry都会被删除,那么Entry内的value也就没有强引用链,自然会被回收,防止内存泄露。这部分,请读者仔细阅读源码。

经这么一分析,是不是豁然开朗。

下面在看看ThreadLocal在一些框架里面的应用:

1、Hibernate处理session,看看一个类ThreadLocalSessionContext

       private static final ThreadLocal<Map> CONTEXT_TL = new ThreadLocal<Map>();       protected static Map sessionMap() {        return CONTEXT_TL.get();    }    @SuppressWarnings({"unchecked"})    private static void doBind(org.hibernate.Session session, SessionFactory factory) {        Map sessionMap = sessionMap();        if ( sessionMap == null ) {            sessionMap = new HashMap();            CONTEXT_TL.set( sessionMap );        }        sessionMap.put( factory, session );    }

2、Spring处理事务,看看一个类TransactionSynchronizationManager

private static final ThreadLocal<Map<Object, Object>> resources =            new NamedThreadLocal<Map<Object, Object>>("Transactional resources");    private static final ThreadLocal<Set<TransactionSynchronization>> synchronizations =            new NamedThreadLocal<Set<TransactionSynchronization>>("Transaction synchronizations");    private static final ThreadLocal<String> currentTransactionName =            new NamedThreadLocal<String>("Current transaction name");    private static final ThreadLocal<Boolean> currentTransactionReadOnly =            new NamedThreadLocal<Boolean>("Current transaction read-only status");    private static final ThreadLocal<Integer> currentTransactionIsolationLevel =            new NamedThreadLocal<Integer>("Current transaction isolation level");    private static final ThreadLocal<Boolean> actualTransactionActive =            new NamedThreadLocal<Boolean>("Actual transaction active");public static void bindResource(Object key, Object value) throws IllegalStateException {        Object actualKey = TransactionSynchronizationUtils.unwrapResourceIfNecessary(key);        Assert.notNull(value, "Value must not be null");                // 处理ThreadLocal        Map<Object, Object> map = resources.get();        // set ThreadLocal Map if none found        if (map == null) {            map = new HashMap<Object, Object>();                        // 处理ThreadLocal            resources.set(map);        }        Object oldValue = map.put(actualKey, value);        // Transparently suppress a ResourceHolder that was marked as void...        if (oldValue instanceof ResourceHolder && ((ResourceHolder) oldValue).isVoid()) {            oldValue = null;        }        if (oldValue != null) {            throw new IllegalStateException("Already value [" + oldValue + "] for key [" +                    actualKey + "] bound to thread [" + Thread.currentThread().getName() + "]");        }        if (logger.isTraceEnabled()) {            logger.trace("Bound value [" + value + "] for key [" + actualKey + "] to thread [" +                    Thread.currentThread().getName() + "]");        }    }
