Condition 對象就是條件變量,它總是與某種鎖相關聯,可以是外部傳入的鎖或是系統默認創建的鎖。當幾個條件變量共享一個鎖時,你就應該自己傳入一個鎖。這個鎖不需要你操心,Condition 類會管理它。
acquire() 和 release() 可以操控這個相關聯的鎖。其他的方法都必須在這個鎖被鎖上的情況下使用。wait() 會釋放這個鎖,阻塞本線程直到其他線程通過 notify() 或 notify_all() 來喚醒它。一旦被喚醒,這個鎖又被 wait() 鎖上。
經典的 consumer/producer 問題的代碼示例為:
import threading
import time
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG,
format='(%(threadName)-9s) %(message)s',)
def consumer(cv):
logging.debug('Consumer thread started ...')
with cv:
logging.debug('Consumer waiting ...')
cv.acquire()
cv.wait()
logging.debug('Consumer consumed the resource')
cv.release()
def producer(cv):
logging.debug('Producer thread started ...')
with cv:
cv.acquire()
logging.debug('Making resource available')
logging.debug('Notifying to all consumers')
cv.notify()
cv.release()
if __name__ == '__main__':
condition = threading.Condition()
cs1 = threading.Thread(name='consumer1', target=consumer, args=(condition,))
#cs2 = threading.Thread(name='consumer2', target=consumer, args=(condition,state))
pd = threading.Thread(name='producer', target=producer, args=(condition,))
cs1.start()
time.sleep(2)
#cs2.start()
#time.sleep(2)
pd.start()
