12 * A synchronization aid that allows one or more threads to wait until
13 * a set of operations being performed in other threads completes.
14 *
15 * <p>A {@code CountDownLatch} is initialized with a given <em>count</em>.
16 * The {@link #await await} methods block until the current count reaches
17 * zero due to invocations of the {@link #countDown} method, after which
18 * all waiting threads are released and any subsequent invocations of
19 * {@link #await await} return immediately. This is a one-shot phenomenon
20 * -- the count cannot be reset. If you need a version that resets the
21 * count, consider using a {@link CyclicBarrier}.
22 *
23 * <p>A {@code CountDownLatch} is a versatile synchronization tool
24 * and can be used for a number of purposes. A
25 * {@code CountDownLatch} initialized with a count of one serves as a
26 * simple on/off latch, or gate: all threads invoking {@link #await await}
27 * wait at the gate until it is opened by a thread invoking {@link
28 * #countDown}. A {@code CountDownLatch} initialized to <em>N</em>
29 * can be used to make one thread wait until <em>N</em> threads have
30 * completed some action, or some action has been completed N times.
31 *
32 * <p>A useful property of a {@code CountDownLatch} is that it
33 * doesn't require that threads calling {@code countDown} wait for
34 * the count to reach zero before proceeding, it simply prevents any
35 * thread from proceeding past an {@link #await await} until all
36 * threads could pass.
37 *
38 * <p><b>Sample usage:</b> Here is a pair of classes in which a group
39 * of worker threads use two countdown latches:
40 * <ul>
41 * <li>The first is a start signal that prevents any worker from proceeding
42 * until the driver is ready for them to proceed;
43 * <li>The second is a completion signal that allows the driver to wait
44 * until all workers have completed.
45 * </ul>
46 *
47 * <pre> {@code
48 * class Driver { // ...
49 * void main() throws InterruptedException {
50 * CountDownLatch startSignal = new CountDownLatch(1);
51 * CountDownLatch doneSignal = new CountDownLatch(N);
52 *
53 * for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) // create and start threads
54 * new Thread(new Worker(startSignal, doneSignal)).start();
55 *
56 * doSomethingElse(); // don't let run yet
57 * startSignal.countDown(); // let all threads proceed
58 * doSomethingElse();
59 * doneSignal.await(); // wait for all to finish
60 * }
61 * }
62 *
63 * class Worker implements Runnable {
64 * private final CountDownLatch startSignal;
65 * private final CountDownLatch doneSignal;
66 * Worker(CountDownLatch startSignal, CountDownLatch doneSignal) {
67 * this.startSignal = startSignal;
68 * this.doneSignal = doneSignal;
69 * }
70 * public void run() {
71 * try {
72 * startSignal.await();
73 * doWork();
74 * doneSignal.countDown();
75 * } catch (InterruptedException ex) {} // return;
76 * }
77 *
78 * void doWork() { ... }
79 * }}</pre>
80 *
81 * <p>Another typical usage would be to divide a problem into N parts,
82 * describe each part with a Runnable that executes that portion and
83 * counts down on the latch, and queue all the Runnables to an
84 * Executor. When all sub-parts are complete, the coordinating thread
85 * will be able to pass through await. (When threads must repeatedly
86 * count down in this way, instead use a {@link CyclicBarrier}.)
87 *
88 * <pre> {@code
89 * class Driver2 { // ...
90 * void main() throws InterruptedException {
91 * CountDownLatch doneSignal = new CountDownLatch(N);
92 * Executor e = ...
93 *
94 * for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) // create and start threads
95 * e.execute(new WorkerRunnable(doneSignal, i));
96 *
97 * doneSignal.await(); // wait for all to finish
98 * }
99 * }
100 *
101 * class WorkerRunnable implements Runnable {
102 * private final CountDownLatch doneSignal;
103 * private final int i;
104 * WorkerRunnable(CountDownLatch doneSignal, int i) {
105 * this.doneSignal = doneSignal;
106 * this.i = i;
107 * }
108 * public void run() {
109 * try {
110 * doWork(i);
111 * doneSignal.countDown();
112 * } catch (InterruptedException ex) {} // return;
113 * }
114 *
115 * void doWork() { ... }
116 * }}</pre>
117 *
118 * <p>Memory consistency effects: Until the count reaches
119 * zero, actions in a thread prior to calling
120 * {@code countDown()}
121 * <a href="package-summary.html#MemoryVisibility"><i>happen-before</i></a>
122 * actions following a successful return from a corresponding
123 * {@code await()} in another thread.
