void await()
throws InterruptedException
- Causes the current thread to wait until it is signalled or
interrupted.
The lock associated with this Condition is atomically released
and the current thread becomes disabled for thread scheduling purposes and
lies dormant until one of four things happens:
- Some other thread invokes the
signal() method for this Condition
and the current thread happens to be chosen as the thread to be
awakened; or
- Some other thread invokes the
signalAll() method for this
Condition; or
- Some other thread
interrupts the current thread, and
interruption of thread suspension is supported; or
- A "spurious wakeup" occurs
In all cases, before this method can return the current thread must
re-acquire the lock associated with this condition. When the thread returns
it is guaranteed to hold this lock.
If the current thread:
- has its interrupted status set on entry to this method; or
- is
interrupted while waiting and interruption of thread
suspension is supported,
then InterruptedException is thrown and the current thread's
interrupted status is cleared. It is not specified, in the first case,
whether or not the test for interruption occurs before the lock is released.
There are other await() methods with slightly different signatures,
including the use of timeouts. See the Condition javadocs
for more detail.
