java多线程--深入理解threadlocal以及适用场景
如何使用：
简介：
例子：
public class TestNum {
// ①通过匿名内部类覆盖ThreadLocal的initialValue()方法，指定初始值
private static ThreadLocal seqNum = new ThreadLocal() {
public Integer initialValue() {
return 0;
}
};
// ②获取下一个序列值
public int getNextNum() {
seqNum.set(seqNum.get() + 1);
return seqNum.get();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
TestNum sn = new TestNum();
// ③ 3个线程共享sn，各自产生序列号
TestClient t1 = new TestClient(sn);
TestClient t2 = new TestClient(sn);
TestClient t3 = new TestClient(sn);
t1.start();
t2.start();
t3.start();
}
private static class TestClient extends Thread {
private TestNum sn;
public TestClient(TestNum sn) {
this.sn = sn;
}
public void run() {
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
// ④每个线程打出3个序列值
System.out.println("thread[" + Thread.currentThread().getName() + "] --> sn["
+ sn.getNextNum() + "]");
}
}
}
} 通常我们通过匿名内部类的方式定义ThreadLocal的子类，提供初始的变量值，如例子中①处所示。TestClient线程产生一组序列号，在③处，我们生成3个TestClient，它们共享同一个TestNum实例。运行以上代码，在控制台上输出以下的结果：
thread[Thread-0] --> sn[1]
thread[Thread-1] --> sn[1]
thread[Thread-2] --> sn[1]
thread[Thread-1] --> sn[2]
thread[Thread-0] --> sn[2]
thread[Thread-1] --> sn[3]
thread[Thread-2] --> sn[2]
thread[Thread-0] --> sn[3]
thread[Thread-2] --> sn[3]
考察输出的结果信息，我们发现每个线程所产生的序号虽然都共享同一个TestNum实例，但它们并没有发生相互干扰的情况，而是各自产生独立的序列号，这是因为我们通过ThreadLocal为每一个线程提供了单独的副本。
实现原理：
/**
* This class provides thread-local variables. These variables differ from
* their normal counterparts in that each thread that accesses one (via its
* {@code get} or {@code set} method) has its own, independently initialized
* copy of the variable. {@code ThreadLocal} instances are typically private
* static fields in classes that wish to associate state with a thread (e.g.,
* a user ID or Transaction ID).
*
* For example, the class below generates unique identifiers local to each
* thread.
* A thread's id is assigned the first time it invokes {@code ThreadId.get()}
* and remains unchanged on subsequent calls.
*
* import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicInteger;
*
* public class ThreadId {
* // Atomic integer containing the next thread ID to be assigned
* private static final AtomicInteger nextId = new AtomicInteger(0);
*
* // Thread local variable containing each thread's ID
* private static final ThreadLocal threadId =
* new ThreadLocal() {
* @Override protected Integer initialValue() {
* return nextId.getAndIncrement();
* }
* };
*
* // Returns the current thread's unique ID, assigning it if necessary
* public static int get() {
* return threadId.get();
* }
* }
*
* Each thread holds an implicit reference to its copy of a thread-local
* variable as long as the thread is alive and the {@code ThreadLocal}
* instance is accessible; after a thread goes away, all of its copies of
* thread-local instances are subject to garbage collection (unless other
* references to these copies exist).

public T get() {

if (e != null) {
