Detailed explanation of thread pool of JUC package

Why use thread pools

Architecture of JUC process pool

Two methods of creating thread pool

Seven parameters of thread pool ThreadPoolExecutor

 public ThreadPoolExecutor(int corePoolSize,int maximumPoolSize,long keepAliveTime,TimeUnit unit,BlockingQueue<Runnable> workQueue,ThreadFactory threadFactory,RejectedExecutionHandler handler) {
     if (corePoolSize < 0 ||
         maximumPoolSize <= 0 ||
         maximumPoolSize < corePoolSize ||
         keepAliveTime < 0)
         throw new IllegalArgumentException();
     if (workQueue == null || threadFactory == null || handler == null)
         throw new NullPointerException();
     this.acc = System.getSecurityManager() == null ?
             null :
             AccessController.getContext();
     this.corePoolSize = corePoolSize;
     this.maximumPoolSize = maximumPoolSize;
     this.workQueue = workQueue;
     this.keepAliveTime = unit.toNanos(keepAliveTime);
     this.threadFactory = threadFactory;
     this.handler = handler;
 }

Strategy of thread pool scheduling

The core of thread pool scheduling is the execute method, which is summarized in the figure above

// JDK 1.8 
public void execute(Runnable command) {
    if (command == null)
        throw new NullPointerException();   
    int c = ctl.get();
    // 1.当前线程数小于corePoolSize,则调用addWorker创建核心线程执行任务
    if (workerCountOf(c) < corePoolSize) {
       if (addWorker(command,true))
           return;
       c = ctl.get();
    }
    // 2.如果不小于corePoolSize，则将任务添加到workqueue队列。
    if (isRunning(c) && workQueue.offer(command)) {
        int recheck = ctl.get();
        // 2.1 如果isRunning返回false(状态检查)，则remove这个任务，然后执行拒绝策略。
        if (! isRunning(recheck) && remove(command))
            reject(command);
            // 2.2 线程池处于running状态，但是没有线程，则创建线程
        else if (workerCountOf(recheck) == 0)
            addWorker(null,false);
    }
    // 3.如果放入workQueue失败，则创建非核心线程执行任务，
    // 如果这时创建非核心线程失败(当前线程总数不小于maximumPoolSize时)，就会执行拒绝策略。
    else if (!addWorker(command,false))
         reject(command);
}

There is no in-depth analysis of the source code of thread scheduling, such as addword function, how to implement the rejection strategy, etc. I will write another article specifically in the future. You can refer to the source code analysis of the beauty of concurrent programming.

What is the difference between the execute method and the submit method?

This also shows another advantage of thread pool: flexibility.
