安全地终止线程

在中断线程节中提到的中断状态是线程的一个标识位，而中断操作是一种简便的线程间交互方式，而这种交互方式最适合用来取消或停止任务。除了中断以外，还可以利用一个boolean变量来控制是否需要停止任务并终止该线程。在代码清单1所示的例子中，创建了一个线程CountThread，它不断地进行变量累加，而主线程尝试对其进行中断操作和停止操作。

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

public class Shutdown {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        Runner one = new Runner();
        Thread countThread = new Thread(one, "CountThread");
        countThread.start();
        // 睡眠1秒，main线程对CountThread进行中断，使CountThread能够感知中断而结束
        TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(1);
        countThread.interrupt();
        Runner two = new Runner();
        countThread = new Thread(two, "CountThread");
        countThread.start();
        // 睡眠1秒，main线程对Runner two进行取消，使CountThread能够感知on为false而结束
        TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(1);
        two.cancel();
    }

    private static class Runner implements Runnable {
        private long i;
        private volatile boolean on = true;

        @Override
        public void run() {
            while (on && !Thread.currentThread().isInterrupted()) {
                i++;
            }
            System.out.println("Count i = " + i);
        }

        public void cancel() {
            on = false;
        }
    }
