/**
* A synchronization aid that allows one or more threads to wait until
* a set of operations being performed in other threads completes.
*
* A {@code CountDownLatch} is initialized with a given count.
* The {@link #await await} methods block until the current count reaches
* zero due to invocations of the {@link #countDown} method, after which
* all waiting threads are released and any subsequent invocations of
* {@link #await await} return immediately. This is a one-shot phenomenon
* -- the count cannot be reset. If you need a version that resets the
* count, consider using a {@link CyclicBarrier}.
*
*
A {@code CountDownLatch} is a versatile synchronization tool
* and can be used for a number of purposes. A
* {@code CountDownLatch} initialized with a count of one serves as a
* simple on/off latch, or gate: all threads invoking {@link #await await}
* wait at the gate until it is opened by a thread invoking {@link
* #countDown}. A {@code CountDownLatch} initialized to N
* can be used to make one thread wait until N threads have
* completed some action, or some action has been completed N times.
*
*
A useful property of a {@code CountDownLatch} is that it
* doesn't require that threads calling {@code countDown} wait for
* the count to reach zero before proceeding, it simply prevents any
* thread from proceeding past an {@link #await await} until all
* threads could pass.
*
*
Sample usage: Here is a pair of classes in which a group
* of worker threads use two countdown latches:
*
* - The first is a start signal that prevents any worker from proceeding
* until the driver is ready for them to proceed;
*
- The second is a completion signal that allows the driver to wait
* until all workers have completed.
*
*
*
* class Driver { // ...
* void main() throws InterruptedException {
* CountDownLatch startSignal = new CountDownLatch(1);
* CountDownLatch doneSignal = new CountDownLatch(N);
*
* for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) // create and start threads
* new Thread(new Worker(startSignal, doneSignal)).start();
*
* doSomethingElse(); // don't let run yet
* startSignal.countDown(); // let all threads proceed
* doSomethingElse();
* doneSignal.await(); // wait for all to finish
* }
* }
*
* class Worker implements Runnable {
* private final CountDownLatch startSignal;
* private final CountDownLatch doneSignal;
* Worker(CountDownLatch startSignal, CountDownLatch doneSignal) {
* this.startSignal = startSignal;
* this.doneSignal = doneSignal;
* }
* public void run() {
* try {
* startSignal.await();
* doWork();
* doneSignal.countDown();
* } catch (InterruptedException ex) {} // return;
* }
*
* void doWork() { ... }
* }
*
*
*
* Another typical usage would be to divide a problem into N parts,
* describe each part with a Runnable that executes that portion and
* counts down on the latch, and queue all the Runnables to an
* Executor. When all sub-parts are complete, the coordinating thread
* will be able to pass through await. (When threads must repeatedly
* count down in this way, instead use a {@link CyclicBarrier}.)
*
*
* class Driver2 { // ...
* void main() throws InterruptedException {
* CountDownLatch doneSignal = new CountDownLatch(N);
* Executor e = ...
*
* for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) // create and start threads
* e.execute(new WorkerRunnable(doneSignal, i));
*
* doneSignal.await(); // wait for all to finish
* }
* }
*
* class WorkerRunnable implements Runnable {
* private final CountDownLatch doneSignal;
* private final int i;
* WorkerRunnable(CountDownLatch doneSignal, int i) {
* this.doneSignal = doneSignal;
* this.i = i;
* }
* public void run() {
* try {
* doWork(i);
* doneSignal.countDown();
* } catch (InterruptedException ex) {} // return;
* }
*
* void doWork() { ... }
* }
*
*
*
* Memory consistency effects: Until the count reaches
* zero, actions in a thread prior to calling
* {@code countDown()}
* happen-before
* actions following a successful return from a corresponding
* {@code await()} in another thread.
