  1. Mar 28, 2013 · A thread goes to wait state once it calls wait() on an Object. This is called Waiting State. Once a thread reaches waiting state, it will need to wait till some other thread calls notify() or notifyAll() on the object. Once this thread is notified, it will not be runnable. It might be that other threads are also notified (using notifyAll()) or ...

    Thread state for a runnable thread. A thread in the runnable state is executing in the Java virtual machine but it may be waiting for other resources from the operating system such as a processor.

    Thread state for a thread blocked waiting for a monitor lock. A thread in the blocked state is waiting for a monitor lock to enter a synchronized block/method or reenter a synchronized block/method after calling Object.wait().

    Thread state for a waiting thread. A thread is in the waiting state due to calling one of the following methods: 1. Object.wait with no timeout 2. Thread.joinwith no timeout 3. LockSupport.park

    Thread state for a waiting thread with a specified waiting time. A thread is in the timed waiting state due to calling one of the following methods with a specified positive waiting time: 1. Thread.sleep 2. Object.wait with timeout 3. Thread.join with timeout 4. LockSupport.parkNanos 5. LockSupport.parkUntil

  2. Java 7 Docs appear to confirm this interpretation... A thread state. A thread can be in one of the following states: NEW A thread that has not yet started is in this state. RUNNABLE A thread executing in the Java virtual machine is in this state. BLOCKED A thread that is blocked waiting for a monitor lock is in this state.

  3. Aug 24, 2023 · 2. Synchronized block: When multiple threads contend for access to a synchronized block, only one thread can execute the block at a time. If a thread tries to enter a synchronized block that is already locked by another thread, it goes into the ‘BLOCKED’ state and waits for the lock to be released. synchronized (sharedLock) { // Critical ...

  4. This is how the wait and blocked states are used to control thread execution while making sure that shared resources are used in a thread-safe way. The scheduler mandates the blocked state, whereas the waiting state is self-imposed by the thread to maintain synchrony. A thread is inactive when in the blocked or waiting state.

  5. Jan 4, 2024 · Thread Profiling can help us in understanding what states threads are in and why. We can also see if the threads are able to run in parallel or not (i.e see the concurrency level of threads). It also tells us how much time threads spend in different states. We can also find and analyse cases of high lock contention.

  7. Jul 20, 2016 · The article explains thread states in Java: BLOCKED, WAITING, and TIMED_WAITING, with relatable real-life examples for clarity. BLOCKED occurs when a thread waits for a monitor lock, whereas WAITING is when a thread waits indefinitely for an action. TIMED_WAITING is when a thread waits for a specified time. Understanding these states is crucial for analyzing thread dumps.
